What Glen does
Glen is the layer that unifies every agent your company runs. Glen pulls in agent sessions from Claude Code, Codex and Cursor, plus Slack messages, GitHub prs, tickets, docs and calls. When a new agent picks up a task, Glen finds relevant prior context and injects it in the agents context window to steer it, producing knowledge work that is significantly higher quality, faster and cheaper. Glen does more. You can query the original agent behind any line of code, or search every session your org has ever run. It distills what your team does into skills and surfaces the right one automatically. Agents work multiplayer, picking up the style and context of whoever else is on the file. Transcripts are unified across Claude Code, Codex and Cursor, so you can hand a session from one to another mid-task. And Glen can also double as a company brain, from Slack, in app, or by just installing Glen on any agent. We’re building toward a future where memory is no longer the missing piece of intelligence. A future where every agent maintains a lossless and continuous thread of institutional experience enabling the era of the compounding organization and fully unsupervised digital labour.

Company
Glen
Institutional learning layer for every agent.
Glen is a layer that sits on top of every agent your company runs - Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and more. We ingest agent sessions, Slack messages, GitHub PRs, tickets, docs, and calls, and automatically surface relevant prior work to guide new agent tasks. This raises the baseline quality and continuity of agent output. Glen also lets you query the provenance of any change, track sessions across tools, and distill team tacit knowledge into skills accessible by any agent.
