Glean
The enterprise knowledge work agent that won. Connects the SaaS stack and lets employees actually use it.
Glean is the enterprise knowledge work agent platform. Connects to a company's full SaaS stack — Slack, Notion, Drive, Salesforce, GitHub — and lets employees query, summarize, and act on institutional knowledge through AI agents.
What it does
Glean is the enterprise AI assistant with the deepest integration into the SaaS stack. Employees ask questions in natural language; Glean answers from the actual company data, with appropriate permissions enforced. Agents extend the surface — summarization, automation, workflow execution across systems.
The hard part is the connector layer. Slack, Notion, Drive, Salesforce, GitHub, Confluence, Zendesk, Jira, and dozens more. Each integration handles permissions, real-time sync, and search indexing. Glean built that layer cleanly. The agent capabilities on top are now the differentiation from generic enterprise search.

EPR editorial verdict
Glean owns the enterprise knowledge work agent category. Connecting to the full SaaS stack is the hard part — Glean did it cleanly, with the permissioning and security that enterprises need.
