80 to 90% of a company's know-how lives in people's heads, says Glean founder and CEO Arvind Jain, and AI needs that context to do good work. In this TNW Podcast episode, Arvind breaks down how Glean captures that know-how from everyday work, why most enterprise tasks can run on far cheaper models, how plugging Glean into Claude makes it twice as fast on half the tokens (according to Glean's own studies), and why Glean wants to be easy to replace.
Arvind, who previously worked on Google Search and co-founded Rubrik, started Glean in 2019 after seeing that nobody at Rubrik could find anything inside the company. He calls it the world's first enterprise generative AI company, and today Glean has about 1,500 employees and more than 1,000 large enterprises as customers, with word of mouth still its biggest growth channel.
