About Glean

We’re on a mission to make knowledge work faster and more humane. We believe that AI will fundamentally transform how people work.

Under the hood, our platform is the connective tissue between AI and knowledge. It brings all of a company’s knowledge together, understands it at a deep level, provides industry-leading search relevance over it, and connects it to generative AI agents and applications.
