Compare Glean
Glean finds what your company wrote. Timer remembers what happened.
Glean connects to more than 275 apps1. So why Timer? Because a document is someone's account of what happened, written when they had time and left as it was. Search finds what was written. Timer keeps what happens as it happens: meetings, emails, decisions and customers, each with its source and its dates, in a memory your organization owns.

01 Search or memory
Search finds what was written. Memory keeps what happened.
A document stays as it was written until someone updates it. Search finds it, whether or not it still holds. Timer keeps the fact itself, with two dates: when it became true and when Timer learned it. When something changes, the old fact is not lost; it is marked as replaced.

02 Not everything is written down
Most of what matters was said, not filed.
The price agreed on a call. The promise made in a meeting. The handover nobody wrote up. None of it sits in a document for search to find. Glean offers meeting notes as an added feature2. Timer keeps every meeting, decision, customer, deal and file as it happens, with its source and its dates.
03 Linked, not listed
Ask about one thing. The rest comes with it.
Search returns a list of documents. Timer links every entry to the people, customers, documents and decisions it touches, across all your tools.

04 The company's, not one person's
One memory, for everyone.
Timer's memory belongs to the company. Your tools connect once, with credentials your organization owns, and Timer supports more than 300 of them. Everyone reads the same memory, each seeing only what they are allowed to see. When someone leaves, what they knew stays.
05 Yours, whatever the model
Models are engines. Memory is the map.
Glean routes each task to a model from its model hub1. Engines change. Your company's memory should not change with them. Timer keeps it in the European Union, isolated for your organization, never used to train AI models, and exportable in full, readable without Timer. A person approves what Pallas proposes, and the record keeps both.
06 When Glean is enough
Sometimes the answer was written down.
If the answer is in a document someone keeps current, and people need to find it across many apps, Glean does that well1. Timer is for when the answer is not in one file: many people need the same answer, decisions are made on calls, things change, and people leave.
07 Questions
Questions people ask.
Glean already searches all our apps. Why Timer?
Glean finds what was written1. Timer keeps what happened as it happens, links it, dates it and keeps it for the whole company.
What does Timer keep that search does not?
What happens: the call, the decision, the change of owner, each with its source and two dates, linked to the people and customers it touches.
Do we have to give up Glean?
No. Timer does not replace the tools your people search. It keeps what happens across them.
Is our data used to train AI models?
Timer never uses your company's memory to train AI models. For Glean, check Glean's terms for your plan.
