What's holding back AI agent adoption in the enterprise? I had a great conversation with Tamar Yehoshua, President of Product & Technology at Glean, during Glean:GO—and we talked about exactly that.While AI agents are the buzz everywhere, the real blockers have been: • Lack of actionability • Siloed data • Complexity for non-technical usersGlean is changing that.Tamar walked me through their latest announcements—and it's clear they're not just building assistants, they're building agents that work across tools, take real actions, and are accessible to everyone.Some highlights from our chat: • Glean Agents are designed for action, not just answers. • You don't need to be technical—just describe what you want in natural language. • Interoperability is key. That's why Glean is focused on deep integrations and open systems. • Real-world impact is already here—from IT automation to faster onboarding, agents are saving time and making work simpler.And the next phase?Agents that go beyond tasks—becoming collaborators in how work gets done.Thanks Tamar for the inspiring conversation. Glean is not just talking about the future of AI agents—it's building it.#data #ai #agents #GleanGo #theravitshow

What does it really take to secure AI as it becomes part of the fabric of how we work? I had the chance to sit down with Sunil Agrawal, Chief Information Security Officer at Glean — and the company's first-ever CISO — to dive deep into this question.Sunil's perspective is clear: securing AI isn't about slapping on controls after deployment. It's about building secure AI by design — from prompt injection defense to real-time content protection and fine-grained governance.In our conversation, we covered a lot of ground:Why traditional security frameworks fall short for AI agentsHow Glean is preventing real-world attacks like jailbreaks and prompt injectionsWhy content awareness is key to managing sensitive data exposureWhat true visibility and control over agents looks like in the enterpriseWhy trust — not just compliance — is the new security currencyAnd how their new partnership with Palo Alto Networks is raising the bar on threat detection and posture managementWith over 100 million actions now executed by Glean's AI agents each year, it's no longer a hypothetical risk landscape — it's a live one.If you're responsible for security, IT, or AI strategy at your org, I highly recommend giving this interview a watch. It'll reshape how you think about governance, risk, and the future of work.Let me know what resonated with you — and if you're thinking differently about securing your AI initiatives after this.#data #ai #agents #GleanGo #theravitshow
What does it really look like to scale AI across an iconic organization?I had a fantastic conversation with Sharon Milz, CIO of TIME, at Glean:GO—where we explored what practical, responsible AI adoption looks like inside a company that's constantly evolving while staying true to its mission.Before Glean, Sharon's teams faced the same challenge many do:Too much content. Not enough context.Finding the right information—fast—was hard.Now? Search isn't just faster, it's smarter—showing up across sales, editorial, and leadership teams.Some key insights from our chat: • The Glean rollout didn't start as a massive IT project. It started with a team that needed a better way to work. • Trust, governance, and security weren't afterthoughts—they were table stakes. • Sharon looks for AI that delivers real value, not hype. Glean stood out because it worked in the flow of work. • And looking ahead? Sharon sees a world where AI agents move from surfacing answers to taking action—shaping the very workflows that power TIME.Loved this conversation. Sharon's leadership is a great example of what it looks like when AI meets real-world execution.#data #ai #agents #GleanGo #theravitshow
What makes AI agents actually work inside the enterprise?I had the chance to sit down with Jassim Latif, Head of Product Ecosystem at Glean, during the Glean:GO conference—and we went deep on exactly that.Jassim and his team are building more than just features—they're building the connective tissue that lets AI agents plug into the systems we all use every day. Glean already integrates with 100+ tools (think: Salesforce, Workday, Snowflake, Slack… the list goes on), and those connections are what make agents context-aware and actually helpful.A few key takeaways from our conversation: • AI isn't useful in isolation. Without integration, there's no context. Glean's approach to connectors is what breaks down the silos. • The vision is open and interoperable. That's why Glean is doubling down on partnerships and why recent integrations with Snowflake and Workday matter so much. • Glean's ecosystem isn't just growing—it's becoming a platform. Prebuilt agents, curated connectors, and opportunities for developers to build on top of it? That's the next frontier.If you're thinking about how to bring AI agents into your enterprise workflows, this is a conversation worth paying attention to.Thanks Jassim for the thoughtful discussion—and for helping bring the Glean ecosystem to life in such a powerful way.#data #ai #agents #gleango #theravitshow

Eric Yuan turned a simple belief into Zoom, the platform that kept the world moving through a once-in-a-century shutdown and redefined modern work. On this episode of Grit, the Zoom CEO shares why velocity beats size, how a family-first ethos powered his leadership during COVID, and why the coming wave of AI dwarfs the original internet boom. He details how he's refreshing Zoom's culture for 7,500 people, opting for virtual deal calls over in person meetings, settling into life as an empty-nester, and keeping Zoom nimble enough to outpace Big Tech and the next wave of AI startups.Guest: Eric S.

I had the pleasure of chatting with Arvind Jain, CEO & Co-Founder of Glean, on The Ravit Show — and what a powerful discussion it was.We dove into what's real vs. what's just hype when it comes to AI agents, and how truly intelligent agents are poised to reshape how enterprises operate over the next 5–7 years.We also explored: • How search has always been core to Glean's mission — and why that foundation enables more context-aware, intelligent AI experiences. • The power of Glean's connector ecosystem with 100+ SaaS apps — and why breadth of integration really matters in the modern workplace. • Their deep partnership with Google Cloud and how it brings real value to customers. • The barriers to AI adoption in the enterprise — and how Glean is helping to lower them.And of course, I asked Arvind what excites him most about the future of AI at work — his answer?

A week after OpenAI's o3/o4-mini volleyed with Google's Gemini 2.5 Flash, I sat down with Arvind Jain— ex-Google search luminary, Rubrik co-founder, and now CEO of Glean —just as his company released its agentic reasoning platform and swirled with rumors of a new round at a $7 billion valuation. We open on that whirlwind: why the model race is accelerating, why enterprises still gravitate to closed models, and when open-source variants finally take over. Arvind argues that LLMs should “fade into the background,” leaving application builders to pick the right engine for each task.From there, we trace Glean's three-act arc—enterprise search powered by transformers (2019), retrieval-augmented chat the moment ChatGPT hit, and now agents that have already logged 50 million real actions inside Glean enterprise customers. Arvind lifts the hood on permission-aware ranking, tool-use orchestration, and the routing layer that swaps Gemini for GPT on the fly. Along the way, he answers the hard questions: Do agents really double efficiency? Where's the moat when every startup promises the same? Why are humans still in the review loop, and for how long?The conversation crescendos with a vision of work where every employee is flanked by a team of proactive AI coworkers—all drawing from a horizontal knowledge layer that knows the firm's language better than any newcomer. If you want to know what's actually working with AI in the enterprise, how to build agents that deliver ROI, and what the next era of work will look like, this episode is packed with specifics, technical insights, and bold predictions from one of the sharpest minds in the space.GleanWebsite - https://www.glean.comX/Twitter - https://x.com/gleanaiArvind Jain LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jain-arvindX/Twitter - https://x.com/jainarvindFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) Intro & Glean's $7B valuation rumor (02:01) The AI model explosion: open vs. closed in the enterprise (06:19) Why enterprises choose open source AI (and when) (10:33) The agent era: what are AI agents and why now?

Faith: Daily spiritual discipline and prayer lead to growth. 5:30 - 7:30 – Strategy #2: The Power of Strategy Many people fail because they don't have a clear, intentional strategy. Strategy aligns with goals—whether it's speaking on more stages, making more money, or positioning oneself for success. Having a mentor, coach, or someone who has been there before is crucial for avoiding unnecessary struggles. 7:30 - 10:00 – Why Coaching & Mentorship Matter A coach or mentor speeds up success and helps navigate blind spots. Reinventing the wheel is unnecessary—learning from those who have succeeded makes the journey easier. The key is to align with those who have already blazed the trail.

Guest: Ben Chestnut, Former CEO and Co-Founder of MailchimpIf you find yourself selling your startup, then Mailchimp co-founder Ben Chestnut has some important advice for you: Get a dog. When Intuit bought Mailchimp in 2021 for $12 billion, the company asked Ben if he wanted to stay on as CEO, but he chose to “walk off into the sunset” and let the new owners take over. After that, he estimates it took 6 to 12 months before he stopped checking his email, social media, and calendar with the same level of stress a CEO might have. Adopting a dog, he discovered, forces you to “get OK with the voices in your head."“After the acquisition, that's all I do, I walk the dog,” Ben says. “And the dog was good therapy ... No judgments from a dog.”Chapters:(01:09) - Growing slow (03:06) - The long journey (07:48) - Is money a burden?

Guest: George Kurian, CEO of NetAppFor almost 10 years, George Kurian has been CEO of the data infrastructure firm NetApp, overseeing its pivot to cloud services. After he took the job — a surprise promotion dropped on him just days before it was announced — he had to learn on the job how the job could be.“ There are a lot more stakeholders that a CEO has to deal with than a chief product officer,” George says, referring to his previous role. “There's also a lot more external commitment ... It was a really all-consuming effort to get the company turned around.”He said the CEO job can be “fairly lonely” because you may want to be peers or friends with your team and your board — but in fact, they are sometimes your subordinates and your superiors, respectively.“ We wouldn't be here without others having contributed significantly on the journey,” George says. “[But] there are times when you have to step back and say, ‘I see a pattern that my team is not seeing,' or ‘Do I think that we can do a better job than we are doing?'”Chapters:(01:10) - Commuting to Sunnyvale (04:49) - Growing up in India (08:04) - Protect the child (09:33) - Raising kids in Silicon Valley (12:44) - Money motivation (15:04) - NetApp's renaissance (21:39) - Writing new chapters (23:15) - Culture shifts (26:38) - Coming to NetApp (29:41) - Surprise!

Guests: Winston Weinberg, CEO & co-founder of Harvey; and Ilya Fushman, partner at Kleiner Perkins“If you think about pretty much any job out there in the world, we will have some sort of [AI] copilot,” says Kleiner Perkins partner Ilya Fushman. “The question is, who are the right folks to build it, and what's their vision?”For Harvey CEO & co-founder Winston Weinberg, the vision is clear: Silicon Valley cannot and should not try to disrupt the legal profession by automating the job of lawyers. Instead, he says, they need to have “respect for the industry” before designing AI solutions that speed up specific tasks.“These industries are incredibly complex,” Winston says. “Legal is one of the oldest professions known to man. There are firms that are over a hundred years old. There are firms that are hundreds of years old, and having a brand that says, ‘We are partnering with the industry to transform it' versus ‘We are just going to steamroll the industry' is really important for us.”Chapters:(01:16) - The zeitgeist switch (02:58) - What is Harvey?
