Guru review and pricing

Verified-knowledge wiki with browser extension and explicit content ownership.

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

Guru is the verified-knowledge wiki, founded 2013 in Philadelphia and last raising a $30M Series C in 2021 with reported total funding around $70M. The product is built around the conceit that knowledge in a wiki goes stale unless someone is explicitly responsible for re-verifying it, so every Guru card has an owner, a verification date, and a periodic re-verification prompt. The browser extension surfaces verified answers in-context (alongside Salesforce, Zendesk, Gmail, or any other tab), and the Slack integration pushes verified answers into channel threads. Strengths: strongest verified-knowledge workflow in the category, defensible browser-extension surface for support and customer-facing teams, mature Slack and Salesforce integration, reasonable enterprise admin, and a focused product story that has aged well. Trade-offs: not a doc-database hybrid (intentional but limits some use cases), editor less flexible than Notion, AI Answers feature is decent but pricing is opaque, vendor footprint smaller than Notion or Confluence, and the verified-card model has a real learning curve for teams used to free-form wikis.

Best for

Support, customer-success, and sales-enablement teams that need knowledge accuracy to be auditable with explicit ownership and re-verification. Particularly strong for distributed customer-facing teams that need answers surfaced inside Salesforce, Zendesk, or Gmail via the browser extension.

Worst for

Engineering teams that want a flexible wiki with embedded code (Notion or Slab better), teams wanting a doc-database hybrid (Notion or Coda better), regulated buyers needing self-hosted (Outline or Confluence better), or buyers unwilling to absorb opaque AI Answers pricing.

Trust signal log
  • 2021-06-22
    Guru raised 30M USD Series C
    Reported total funding around 70M USD; positions Guru as the focused verified-knowledge wiki for support and customer-facing teams.
  • 2024-05-08
    Guru AI Answers launched on verified content
    AI Answers limited to verified cards rather than the raw corpus; reduces hallucination risk but caps usage at standard tier with opaque overage pricing.
  • 2025-07-14
    Renewal pricing crept up on multi-year deals
    Several buyer reports of double-digit renewal increases through 2024-2025; consistent with broader category pricing pressure.
Vendor Trust is scored independently of product quality. A great product from an unfair vendor still earns a low trust score.
