AgOS vs Glean
Glean searches across the many apps a company already uses. AgOS is one product where the documents, the answers, the agents and the work live together. Here is how that plays out.
The short version
Glean is enterprise AI search and an agents platform that connects to the apps a company already uses, sold to larger organizations through its sales team. AgOS is a self-serve product that keeps documents, answers, agents, work and people in one place, and answers only from what it can cite.
Where AgOS is different
- It says when it does not know. AgOS is built never to answer beyond its sources, and turns those misses into suggestions for pages to write.
- Actions wait for a yes. Emails, bookings and tool calls can be held in Approvals, with what AgOS will do and why.
- The work lives here too. Workspaces and People are part of the product, so a question about a late task reads its comment thread directly.
- You can start today. Sign up, add a few documents and ask, without a sales call.
Where Glean may fit better
If your knowledge is spread across many apps that AgOS does not connect to today, Glean’s large catalog of connectors is a real advantage. AgOS connects to Slack, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive and GitHub, plus any tool with an MCP server. Large enterprises that want a vendor with a long list of deployments will also find Glean further along.
How to compare them yourself
Run the same test on AgOS and Glean, with your own documents:
- Ask five questions you already know the answers to, and check every citation.
- Ask two questions your documents do not cover, and see whether you get a guess or a plain "the documents do not say".
- Restrict a page to one person, then ask about it as someone else.
- Ask for an action, such as an email to a client, and see what happens before it is sent.
AgOS takes a few minutes to set up: create an account, add three to five documents and ask.
