Overview
Glean is an enterprise AI platform that connects to all your company's applications and data sources to provide AI-powered search, answers, and agents. It understands organizational context and permissions to deliver secure, accurate answers across Slack, Drive, Confluence, and 100+ integrations.
Our take
Glean connects enterprise knowledge across systems so employees can find and ask about internal information, sold through enterprise sales. It is one of the more mature products in this space. The deployment risk is permissions: an assistant that indexes everything will surface whatever your access model fails to enforce, and shared-drive permissions are frequently already wrong.
Worth it if
Large organisations where knowledge is scattered across systems and nobody can find anything.
Look elsewhere if
Companies with unaudited permissions — indexing first and fixing access later exposes things.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Could it show people documents they shouldn't see?
Only if your permissions already allow it — which, in most organisations with years of accumulated shared drives, they partly do. Enterprise search does not create the exposure; it makes existing misconfiguration findable. Auditing access before indexing is the step that prevents an uncomfortable discovery.
How long does a deployment actually take?
Longer than the sales cycle implies, because the work is connecting sources, mapping identity and permissions, and driving adoption rather than installing anything. Pilots run in weeks; organisation-wide rollouts run in quarters. The permission mapping is usually the critical path.
