Glean Workplace Search AI
GleanGlean Workplace Search AI is enterprise search that returns permissions-aware results and generative answers across a company's connected tools. An Enterprise Graph maps relationships across company content, and a large connector library brings in data from workplace applications. The search layer also powers Glean Assistant.
Scored here as the human-facing search product rather than the assistant built on it.

Adoption
4 medium confidenceGlean Search runs on the same platform as Glean Assistant and carries the same adoption reading rather than an independent one, because no separate user count exists for Search alone. Glean discloses broad growth in revenue, enterprise customers and cross-department use, but not a raw seat count, so the figure here is reported growth rather than a direct measurement.
