Glean

OVERVIEW

Glean is most useful when an answer is spread across documents, conversations and business applications. Its platform combines enterprise search, an assistant and agents with permission-aware access to company context. The agent product describes reasoning through tasks, planning next steps and taking action across workflows. For this directory, the central use is finding and combining internal knowledge, not replacing the underlying stores where that knowledge lives.

A good evaluation begins with real questions employees currently answer by searching several tools or asking colleagues. Examples include finding a past product decision or preparing a summary from project material. Those are suggested tests, not guaranteed results. Search quality depends on connector coverage, content freshness and the organization's existing access rules. Agent actions add another layer that should be checked separately from the quality of retrieved answers.

What the workflow does

• Cross-application search: Finds relevant information across connected company systems from a shared search experience.
• Permission-aware context: Uses source access rules so employees receive context appropriate to their permissions.
• Company-grounded assistant: Uses organizational material to answer questions and prepare work informed by internal context.
• Agent builder and orchestration: Supports reasoning-based agents and workflows that combine enterprise context with available actions.
• Governance and monitoring: Provides controls for agent access, adoption and performance so teams can inspect and improve use.

FROM INPUT TO RESULT

How the workflow works

1. 1

   Connect a limited set of sources and verify that access behaves correctly for different roles.

2. 2

   Evaluate search and answers on real employee questions, checking the cited source context.

3. 3

   Introduce a narrow agent workflow, monitor its outputs and expand only after it behaves reliably.
