Enterprise AI grounded in your company's own knowledge
Ask a question in plain language and get a cited answer assembled from documents, tickets, wikis, and messages across every connected system, with permissions respected.
Reusable agents handle multi-step workflows such as onboarding, account research, or incident follow-up by orchestrating actions across business apps.
Glean automatically picks and routes requests to the right model and reasoning level, giving teams access to 40+ LLMs through a single governed gateway.
Draft on-brand documents, summarise meetings, analyse data, and create content grounded in company context rather than generic model knowledge.
A private, offline notebook that turns your own sources into reports, decks and briefings
Install a normal desktop app on Windows, macOS or Linux and run it with no account. With a local model you can pull the network cable and keep querying your indexed sources, since nothing is sent to a vendor.
Choose a bundled local Qwen or Gemma model at first launch, or paste a key for OpenAI, Anthropic or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. The model is a setting rather than a fixed vendor choice.
Turn one set of sources into slide decks, reports, briefing notes, podcasts, mind maps, flashcards, quizzes, Markdown, Word, PDF, HTML and spreadsheet outputs — generated and stored locally.
Optional plugins pull research from Google Search, Reddit, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Google Maps, Amazon, Walmart, Indeed and the open web, and anyone can register their own MCP server.
