Autocomplete document suggestions from within Chat

Assistant now features real-time document autocomplete suggestions as you type in Chat. As you begin entering keywords or phrases, Glean automatically surfaces a list of relevant documents—matched by title, content, and metadata—directly below the chat composer. You can click a suggestion to insert it into your message or open the document, making it faster and easier to reference or navigate to key information without leaving the chat. This enhancement streamlines document discovery and improves productivity for users who rely on chat for everyday work.

Changes to Glean Assistant: Retiring datasource filtering and source removal

Glean Assistant will retire two features: the ability to filter specific sources in chat and the option to remove sources from existing Assistant responses. These features are being removed to streamline the user experience and because the latest generation of Glean Assistant, powered by advanced LLMs like GPT-5 and Claude Sonnet 4.5, now provides more accurate, context-aware answers without requiring manual source selection. With improvements in Assistant, users can simply describe what they need in natural language—including whether it should focus on or exclude a specific data source—and Assistant will automatically execute. Users can continue to filter specific sources in search. Change date: December 4, 2025 Learn more @ /release-notes/sunset/assistant

Suggest Deep Research via follow-up questions in Thinking Mode

This makes it easier to discover and benefit from Deep Research, helping users access more comprehensive, citation-rich analysis directly when needed and improving satisfaction and outcomes for complex research tasks.

Admin quota management for Deep Research

Admin quota management controls are now available for Deep Research, allowing admins to set per‑user monthly query limits directly in the Admin Console. By default, each user will have 10 Deep Research queries per month, and admins can raise or lower this at any time. This gives you tighter control of usage and FlexCredit spend with minimal impact on adoption.

Sensitive Content Policies: User Customizable IDs for Regexes

Admins can now assign user-defined, stable IDs to each regex in Glean Protect+ sensitive content policies.

Protect ROAD-791

Admins can now further refine sensitive findings policies and reports by combining primary matches (regex or terms) with related terms using AND/OR logic. A primary match is flagged as sensitive only when the specified related terms are present. This allows for more precise rules to align with your organization's definitions of sensitive data, improving detection accuracy and reducing false positives.
