Guru review and pricing

AI-search-first internal knowledge for sales and support agents.

By Guru Technologies, Inc. · Founded 2013 · Philadelphia, PA · private

Guru placed an early bet on AI-driven retrieval for internal knowledge (Series C $30M in 2022, ahead of the category-wide AI-search wave), and the browser extension that surfaces verified knowledge cards inside Salesforce, Zendesk, and Slack remains the best agent-assist KB workflow available. Card-based content model, verification workflows, and content-expiration logic make it strong for compliance-sensitive internal knowledge where stale answers are dangerous. Pricing ($10-20/user/month) sits in the middle of the category. Trade-offs: not a customer-facing help center product, the card-based authoring model is opinionated and not every team adapts to it, and AI features that were ahead in 2022 are now table-stakes which compresses the moat.
