Glean's Expansion Beyond Enterprise Search Roots
AI is rapidly reshaping enterprise workflows, with adoption rates outpacing both personal computers and the internet, according to research.
Glean, which began as an AI-powered unified search engine, has evolved into a significant player in the enterprise AI space. At its recent Glean:GO event, the company introduced a number of updates and partnerships, aimed at making the process of creating and deploying AI agents simpler, more modular and more secure. It also featured client success stories from customers including Booking.com, Canva and Zillow.
For client Super.com, Glean's approach reportedly cut onboarding time by 20% and saved over 1,000 hours monthly by replacing employee manuals with tailored workflows and toolkits.
Glean's push towards AI agents reflects trends in the broader market in the agentic AI space, which Gartner predicts will facilitate 15% of daily autonomous decisions by 2028. This shift requires organizations to build robust digital foundations including zero trust architecture, cloud-native systems and AI governance frameworks.
Business leaders across all industries now face pressure to understand AI's implications for strategy and operations. What was once considered a distant innovation is quickly becoming central to business priorities, requiring executives to adapt regardless of industry. The challenge isn't just implementing AI but creating the infrastructure for it to operate effectively while balancing its potential benefits against implementation challenges.
“We’re building the platform that brings AI into the fabric of everyday work, connecting people to knowledge, automating tasks, and enabling smarter decisions across the enterprise.” said Arvind Jain, founder and CEO, Glean.
