Gartner report reinforces Glean’s momentum and advancement of Generative AI
Work AI leader Glean today announced it has been named a Cool Vendor in the 2024 Cool Vendors in Digital Workplace Applications1 report by Gartner, Inc.
According to Gartner, workforce digital dexterity is perhaps the single greatest factor determining the prosperity of an organization through 20302 and the biggest opportunity is in improving the technology provided to frontline employees. Glean gives enterprises the best search experience on the market, using AI to empower workers to find and retrieve knowledge quickly and at scale. For the transformative potential of generative AI to be realized, it must be able to access all of the knowledge across an organization in a unified way, rather than a subset of siloed information.
“We are honored that Gartner named Glean as a Cool Vendor for Digital Workplace Applications,” said Arvind Jain, co-founder and CEO of Glean. “Glean is unique in its ability to bring the power of AI to the daily work of everyone in an organization, helping employees find and understand knowledge, generate content, and automate tasks.”
Glean’s innovations and customer momentum in 2024 represent the company’s commitment to its mission of Work AI for all. Highlights in the year include:
The Glean Work AI Platform: Building upon the AI assistant, in June, Glean introduced a comprehensive Work AI platform with Glean Apps and Glean APIs. These new capabilities give both everyday users and developers the power to create custom AI assistants, copilots, chatbots, and agents to automate everyday work and deliver proactive insights with AI. Glean’s Work AI Platform continues to expand as the open, horizontal choice for building enterprise AI, now adding support for industry-leading LLMs Anthropic Claude and Google Gemini. In September, Glean released next-generation prompting features to enable multi-step agentic reasoning and automation, and to ensure that users of all skill levels don’t let the complexity of prompt engineering slow their adoption of AI.
Customer Momentum and Funding: In the past year, Glean more than tripled its business, and drove broad adoption across industries and geographies, with Glean customers representing many of the “top 10 largest” companies across telecommunications, banking, retail, travel, social networking, manufacturing, semiconductors, and electronics. In September, to meet the growing demand for its Work AI platform, the company announced an over $260 million Series E round at a $4.6 billion valuation.
