Guru

Guru: Knowledge management platform that structures, governs, and improves enterprise information to ensure AI systems provide accurate, cited answers.

Guru functions as a governed knowledge layer that connects to enterprise tools to provide accurate answers for both human employees and AI agents. It structures and continuously improves company information, allowing AI tools to retrieve verified, permission-aware data instead of raw, unmanaged documents. The platform connects to over 100 enterprise integrations including Slack, Microsoft Teams, Salesforce, Zendesk, Confluence, and SharePoint. Guru differentiates itself by including centralized governance and a team of solution engineers to assist with knowledge architecture design, agent configuration, and optimization. Security features include SOC 2 Type II compliance, HIPAA readiness, SSO, SCIM, and data loss prevention masking. The company states that client data does not train its AI models.
