Investing.com -- Glean, a Work AI unicorn, has raised $150 million in a Series F round, lifting its valuation to $7.2 billion as demand intensifies for artificial intelligence tools powering enterprise productivity. The new financing, led by Wellington Management, marks a notable increase from its previous $4.6 billion valuation just months ago.

Participation in the round included new investors such as Khosla Ventures, Bicycle Capital, Geodesic Capital, and Archerman Capital. Existing backers, including Sequoia Capital, Coatue, DST Global, and Lightspeed Venture Partners, also returned, signaling continued confidence in Glean’s momentum.

Glean said the capital will be used to accelerate product development, grow its partner ecosystem, and expand internationally.

CEO Arvind (NSE:ARVN) Jain positioned the raise as strategic rather than necessary for short-term operations. “We’re building the platform that brings AI into the fabric of everyday work, connecting people to knowledge, automating tasks, and enabling smarter decisions across the enterprise,” he said.

Since its launch less than three years ago, Glean has surpassed $100 million in annual recurring revenue. Its agent environment, Glean Agents, now powers more than 100 million automated actions each year, with a goal to reach one billion actions by the end of 2025.

Matt Witheiler of Wellington Management said the firm is endorsing a long-term outlook for the AI platform. “Glean’s innovative approach and rapid growth are truly impressive, and we believe they are well positioned to be a leader in the future of enterprise AI,” he said.

The company hosted its inaugural user conference, Glean:GO, in San Francisco last month, drawing over 10,000 attendees online and in-person. It has also been recognized on the CNBC Disruptor 50 list and named one of Fast Company’s Top 10 Most Innovative Companies for 2025.

The funding reflects a broader shift in enterprise AI, as organizations move from pilot programs toward widespread deployment of autonomous agents. Glean’s model centers around democratizing AI access beyond technical users, mapping organizational workflows with contextual awareness, and integrating real-time data across more than 100 software platforms, positioning it as a key player in the operationalization of AI in the workplace.
