Honest comparison

Sanaf AI Solutions vs Glean

The short answer: Glean indexes everything your company knows and answers questions across it, respecting the permissions each person already has, and it is sold through a demo rather than a price list. Sanaf is an AI employee that does the work rather than finding the answer: it reads the inbox, updates the record, sends the follow-up, in Slack, Microsoft Teams and its own chat. Choose Glean if your problem is that nobody can find anything across a large company. Choose Sanaf if your problem is that nobody has time to do the work.

At work

An illustration of how the conversation reads, not a transcript from a client account.

Glean solves a real and specific problem: in a company past a certain size, the answer exists somewhere and no one can find it. Indexing every system, honouring each person’s permissions, and answering in one place is genuinely hard, and Glean does it well.

It is also built and sold for that size of company. There is no published price list; the path is a demo, and the buyer is usually an IT or knowledge team with a rollout to run.

Sanaf answers a different question. Not "where is it" but "will someone please do it". It works inside the apps you connect, on a job you wrote, and it asks before anything it cannot undo. For most businesses, that is the sharper pain.

Choose Glean if

  • Your real problem is that the answer exists somewhere and nobody can find it.

  • You want to sign up and start today without booking a demo first.
  • You want it acting inside your apps, with rules about what it may do without asking.
  • You want a published price you can put in a budget, and credit that never expires.
Questions

Frequently asked

Is Sanaf a Glean alternative?
Not really, and we would rather say so. They answer different questions: Glean finds what your company knows, Sanaf does the work. A large company might reasonably want both.
Can Sanaf search across my tools?
It reads the apps you connect it to, as part of doing a job. It is not an enterprise search product and does not index everything your company holds.
How does pricing differ?
Glean does not publish prices; you get a quote after a demo. Sanaf starts free with $120 of credit and no card, then credits from $20 that never expire, for the work it does.
Which one suits a ten person business?
Sanaf, almost always. Glean is built for organisations with enough systems and enough people that finding things is itself the bottleneck.
