Glean, a leader in Work AI, has introduced significant enhancements to Glean Assistant, positioning it as a fully contextual, agentic AI partner for enterprise employees. The updated assistant bridges the gap between AI insight and real-world execution by deeply understanding company data, people, workflows, and individual roles to enable faster, higher-quality work.

Quick Intel

  • Glean Assistant now includes real-time voice interaction for hands-free collaboration, such as briefings or document summaries during commutes.
  • New brand-aligned slide generation creates polished presentations instantly, adhering to company fonts, colors, and visual standards.
  • Agent sandboxes provide secure environments with CLI, code interpreter, and tools for complex analysis without context window limits.
  • Assistant supports over 100 enterprise actions across tools like Salesforce, Jira, Confluence, GitHub, Google Calendar, Asana, and Canva, with human-in-the-loop controls.
  • Users can view, edit, and control their personal graph insights derived from emails, documents, chats, and activity for transparent personalization.
  • Proactive agent templates organize workdays, surface action items, plan around priorities, and assist in executing tasks to turn plans into results.

Bridging Insight to Execution in Enterprise Work

Many organizations face challenges in scaling AI adoption beyond experimentation, with employees encountering fragmented tools, incomplete answers, and added workflow friction. Glean Assistant addresses these by integrating search, analysis, content creation, and action execution into one cohesive experience grounded in enterprise context.

The assistant adapts to each employee’s role, goals, and daily work, enabling more informed decisions, creative output, and expanded capabilities. On average, users interact with Glean Assistant six times per active day, reflecting strong engagement.

“At Swiggy, context is what makes GenAI actually useful. With Glean, our teams can quickly surface the right information, generate what they need, and move work forward without breaking focus. That capability is transforming how we operate across our tech organization, delivering nearly two hours saved per employee per day and allowing teams to spend more time building and shipping what matters most.” – Madhusudhan Rao, CTO, Swiggy

Key New Features Enhance Productivity and Trust

Real-time voice enables natural, hands-free interactions, ideal for multitasking or quick queries without typing.

Brand-ready slide generation builds on existing content tools, producing presentations fully aligned with corporate branding guidelines for rapid iteration from concept to delivery.

Canvas capabilities in Slack, email, and slides support collaborative creation, maintaining full context throughout drafting and review processes.

Expanded enterprise actions allow seamless transitions from insight to execution across connected applications, governed by admin-defined guardrails and clear human oversight.

Agent sandboxes offer isolated, permission-respecting environments for deep research, large dataset analysis, and long-running tasks.

Personal graph transparency lets employees see and manage inferred details about their role, projects, and preferences, drawn from comprehensive activity sources for accurate, controllable personalization.

Proactive agent templates automatically organize schedules, highlight priorities, summarize progress, and partner with users to advance work.

“Most assistants today are still focused on generating responses, but enterprise work is about execution - coordinating people, knowledge, and systems to get things done. As companies move from AI experiments to real adoption, they need tools that understand their business and can safely take action across it. Glean Assistant is designed as an expert and agentic daily work partner, grounded in enterprise context, so it can reason about real work and help employees turn intent into outcomes.” – Emrecan Dogan, Chief Product Officer, Glean

Availability and Next Steps

  • Generally available: Image generation, code writer and search, canvas adaptive UIs, task management agent templates, and native actions across Salesforce, Jira, Confluence, GitHub, and Google Calendar.
  • Beta: Slide generation, real-time voice, and additional actions via MCP.
  • Coming soon: Agent sandbox.

These updates reinforce Glean’s mission to expand human potential through contextual AI, enabling employees to achieve more impactful work with confidence and efficiency.
