When evaluating enterprise AI search platforms, Unleash and Glean often top the shortlist. And for good reason - both deliver high-impact value for modern organizations: connecting company knowledge across tools, empowering AI agents, and making information accessible at scale.

But while the two platforms may check the same functional boxes, the experience - and cost - of using them couldn’t be more different.

Let’s break it down.

Enterprise-Grade Capabilities, Side by Side

Unleash and Glean both deliver:

• Secure, scalable integration with enterprise tools and data sources
• Built-in support for leading LLMs to power natural language queries
• AI agent creation and deployment into daily tools like Slack, Microsoft Teams, Salesforce, and Zendesk

From a technical capability standpoint, they’re on par - each product helps organizations unlock their knowledge and drive productivity with generative AI.

Unleash Offers More Flexibility, Deployment Options, and Customization

‍Deployment Agility

Unleash can be deployed in both AWS and Azure, and is available through both AWS and Azure Marketplaces - giving IT teams more control over infrastructure and procurement.
In contrast, Glean is limited to AWS, narrowing deployment choices and complicating rollouts in Azure-heavy environments.

Tailored to Your Organization

Unleash offers a higher degree of customization and customer-specific development - enabling enterprise clients to adapt and extend the platform to their unique processes and requirements.
Glean, by contrast, typically offers a more rigid experience, with less willingness to accommodate specialized use cases or feature extensions.

Price Tag

Functionally, both platforms offer robust AI-powered search and agent capabilities. But the cost of accessing that value differs dramatically. Glean’s pricing is often tied to multi-million-dollar enterprise contracts, requiring long-term commitments before proving true ROI. For many companies, this means higher risk, slower rollout, and less room for experimentation. Unleash, on the other hand, provides the same core functionality at a fraction of the cost. This means:

• Lower barrier to entry
• Faster time-to-value
• Scalable rollouts with less financial risk

In other words, you can deploy Unleash company-wide without locking into a high-stakes, high-cost contract - freeing you to test, iterate, and scale confidently.

The Verdict: Unleash Is the Smarter Enterprise Choice

If you’re choosing between Unleash and Glean, the decision isn’t about features - they’re both strong. The real choice lies in agility, control, and value.

• Same enterprise-grade AI capabilities
• More deployment and integration flexibility
• Greater willingness to customize
• Radically better pricing
