"When Glean CEO Arvind Jain thinks about the future of work, he doesn't picture a chatbot waiting for you to type a question. He imagines a digital companion that knows your goals, your meetings, even the documents you're writing, and steps in to help before you ask. That vision led him to found Glean in 2019 after more than a decade at Google and a successful run cofounding the data management startup Rubrik. Glean began as a search tool for company data."
"Over time it has grown alongside AI itself, moving from simple search to synthesizing information, reasoning through tasks, and into what Jain calls "agentic AI," where systems take initiative. With a valuation of $7.2 billion (and our number one Most Innovative Company in Applied AI this year), Glean is positioning itself at the center of enterprise productivity-and offering a preview of how agentic AI may transform the way entire workforces operate."
Arvind Jain envisions a digital work companion that understands employees’ goals, meetings, and documents and proactively intervenes to help before prompts are given. He founded Glean in 2019 after roles at Google and cofounding Rubrik, aiming to solve enterprise knowledge and document challenges. Glean evolved from a company search tool into AI-driven synthesis and task reasoning, progressing toward agentic AI that can take initiative. The company’s $7.2 billion valuation reflects its positioning at the center of enterprise productivity. The approach promises to reshape how organizations allocate tasks between humans and machines.
