Glean
OVERVIEW:
Glean is an AI-powered “search engine for your business” that connects to all your company’s apps (Slack, Drive, Jira, Email) to find answers buried in your documents. It acts as an internal knowledge assistant that knows everything your company knows.
TOP FEATURES:
• Unified Enterprise Search: Find any specific file or conversation across 100+ different apps with a single query.
• Generative AI Answers: Reads company documents to provide concise summaries with citations rather than just a list of links.
• Permission-Aware Logic: Only shows information the user already has permission to see, maintaining strict internal data security.
THE TRADE-OFF:
It is built for teams; its value grows with the number of documents and users, making it less ideal for solo users.
PRICING:
Enterprise-level pricing based on the size of the organization.
THE VERDICT:
The best solution for large teams that waste too much time searching for internal documents.
