Glean Achieves $100M ARR in Three Years, Delivering True AI ROI to the Enterprise
Glean’s Work AI platform more than doubles its customer base in the past year
Palo Alto, CA - February 5, 2025 - Work AI leader Glean today announced it achieved $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) in the fourth quarter FY25, cementing its position as one of the fastest-growing SaaS startups and reflecting a surging demand for AI-powered workplace intelligence. Glean joins an elite group of high-growth companies reaching this milestone, reinforcing its impact in a rapidly evolving AI industry.
More than doubling its customer base in the past year alone, many of the world’s largest organizations rely on Glean, spanning more than 50 industries including telecommunications, banking, retail, travel, manufacturing, semiconductors, and more.
Founded with a vision to redefine the workplace with AI, Glean pioneered the most advanced enterprise search solution, helping employees find the information they needed across an increasingly fragmented digital workspace. As organizations embraced its AI-powered search, Glean quickly evolved from an intelligent search engine into a Work AI platform designed to understand, automate, and augment the way people work.
Today, Glean users now average five queries per day - on par with consumer web search habits - while maintaining an industry-leading ~40% daily/monthly active user (DAU/MAU) ratio, far exceeding the typical 10-20% seen across enterprise SaaS applications.
Built to be both LLM- and search-agnostic, Glean allows organizations to select the best AI models while seamlessly integrating with their existing tools and applications.
“Surpassing $100M in ARR so quickly is a testament to the incredible value Glean delivers to enterprises worldwide,” said Arvind Jain, Founder and CEO, Glean. “Glean’s rapid adoption proves that organizations want AI tools that seamlessly integrate into daily work, helping employees find and understand knowledge, generate content, and automate tasks - all grounded in the full breadth of their company data.”
“Glean’s growth to over $100M in ARR last year is a clear signal of deep, sustained adoption in workplace AI that delivers productivity in ways that were previously impossible,” said Mamoon Hamid, Partner, Kleiner Perkins. “Glean has very clearly moved beyond enterprise search to delivering agentic AI that truly understands work, with context, intent and action."
