Enterprise AI is shifting fast from chatbots that answer questions to systems that actually do the work across an organization. But who will own the AI layer that powers all of it?

Glean’s AI Work Assistant

Glean, which started as an enterprise search product, has evolved into what it calls an “AI work assistant,” aiming to sit underneath other AI experiences, connecting to internal systems, managing permissions, and delivering intelligence wherever employees work.

Funding Milestone

Investors are buying into the vision, too — the startup raised $150 million last year at a $7.2 billion valuation (source) as competition heats up against tech giants bundling AI.

Podcast Interview
