Market Discussion
As of June 25, 2026, Glean has not officially announced or filed for an IPO and remains a private company [1][2][3][4]. Despite this, the company is viewed as a strong candidate for a future IPO, having reached $300 million in annual recurring revenue as of May 2026 and with a last reported valuation of approximately $7.2 billion in June 2025 [3][5][6]. However, prediction markets suggest a very low implied probability for a near-term IPO announcement, indicating minimal current market speculation [7].
