In this interview from theCUBE + NYSE Wired: AI Factories – Data Centers of the Future event, Glean co-founder and CEO Arvind Jain joins theCUBE’s John Furrier to unpack what’s really working in enterprise AI today and what comes next. Jain explains why knowledge access remains the first successful AI use case at scale and how Glean’s enterprise search brings AI into everyday work. He details the past year’s lessons with AI agents – from the need for guardrails, security, evaluation and monitoring to democratizing agent building so business owners (not just data scientists) can create production-grade agents.
The conversation dives into Glean’s vision of the enterprise brain powered by an enterprise graph, highlighting the importance of deep context, human workflows and behavior to reduce “noise” and drive outcomes. Jain outlines core building blocks – hundreds of enterprise integrations and a growing actions library – that let agents securely read company knowledge and take actions across systems (e.g., CRM updates, HR tasks, calendar checks). He discusses how organizations are standing up AI Centers of Excellence, prioritizing “top 10–20” agents across functions like engineering, support and sales, and why a horizontal AI data platform that unifies structured and unstructured data – accessed conversationally and stitched together via standards like MCP – sets the foundation for AI factory-scale operations. Looking ahead, Jain says Glean’s upgraded assistant is evolving from reactive tool to proactive companion that anticipates tasks and accelerates productivity.
