AI Startup Glean Raises $150M at $7.2B Valuation Just 9 Months After Previous Round
Glean’s rapid funding growth reflects continued investor confidence in enterprise AI tools.
Glean Secures $150M to Grow Its Enterprise AI Platform
Enterprise AI startup Glean has raised $150 million in Series F funding, pushing its valuation to $7.2 billion. The round comes just nine months after the company closed a $260 million Series E that valued it at $4.6 billion.
Wellington Management led the new investment, with support from new and returning backers, including Khosla Ventures, General Catalyst, Sapphire Ventures, and Sequoia Capital.
Fast Growth in AI Revenue and Reach
Founded in 2019 and based in Palo Alto, California, Glean builds AI-powered search tools designed to help teams quickly access company information and automate tasks. Its platform is built for use across departments, allowing non-technical users to work with AI in everyday operations.
The company now has more than 800 employees and has crossed $100 million in annual recurring revenue — less than three years after launching its core software. Clients include major names like Booking.com, Duolingo, Grammarly, Deutsche Telekom, and Databricks.

AI Continues to Dominate Venture Investment
Glean’s raise is part of a larger trend: AI is attracting a massive share of venture capital. Over the past year, nearly half of U.S. venture funding has gone to AI-focused companies, with later-stage rounds leading the way.
In a recent example, coding assistant provider Anysphere raised $900 million at a $9.9 billion valuation — showing investor enthusiasm for AI products that deliver real business value.
Globally, AI led all sectors in venture funding in the first quarter of 2025, with $59.6 billion invested. That made it the strongest quarter ever for AI funding, accounting for 53% of all global capital raised.
