Glean browser extension sidebar

The Glean browser extension sidebar enhances your research and discovery capabilities directly within your web browser on both indexed and unindexed web pages. It consolidates essential functionalities into an interface accessible via keyboard shortcuts or the Glean icon. The sidebar features two distinct tabs:
  • Chat tab: Provides an AI assistant that uses contextual and company knowledge to enhance research.
  • Search tab: Enables searches for relevant content, documents, and experts.
