   Glean CEO Arvind Jain: 85-90% of enterprise tasks don't need Claude

   Glean founder and CEO Arvind Jain told TNW at HumanX in Amsterdam on 23 September that the company has no plans to raise more money and no concrete plans to go public, though it is getting its internal processes ready for a listing. He said Glean has grown from enterprise search into an AI coworker and agent platform that uses models from several labs, and that for 85% to 90% of enterprise tasks it would rather use a model other than Anthropic's Claude, which he called "very expensive," since some GPT models cost an order of magnitude less; the bigger advantage, he said, is context, with Claude able to ask Glean's knowledge graph for context instead of searching 100 systems itself — which Glean's own studies show makes Claude twice as fast, halves its tokens and makes its work preferred five times more often. Jain also said Glean does not want to win through lock-in: memory of how each person works is stored in a standard, company-owned format, permissions follow the company's existing rules and are checked programmatically rather than by AI, and "our goal is to actually make us very easily replaceable"; Glean said in May it had passed $300M in annual recurring revenue.
