We’re excited to announce our $28.5 million Series A investment in GreenLite!
GreenLite is transforming the outdated and cumbersome process of construction permitting and plan review. In a world where opening and running a business is already challenging, the last thing owners need is unnecessary delays due to bureaucracy. We’ve all seen the “Opening Soon” signs linger far too long — GreenLite's mission is to change that.
James Gallagher and Benjamin Allen founded GreenLite after experiencing the frustrations of permitting while scaling brick-and-mortar businesses at Gopuff. They saw an opportunity to create a solution that combines software and services to speed up the process and make it more efficient. GreenLite’s platform bridges the gap between developers, contractors, and municipalities, while also offering private plan review to help reduce government backlogs.
Companies like Chipotle Mexican Grill, Chick-fil-A Restaurants-fil-A, Driven Brands Inc., and many others are already benefiting from GreenLite's ability to keep projects on time and within budget. From commercial real estate to residential, GreenLite is making construction more efficient.
Congrats to the team! More on why we invested here:

We’re excited to be investing in Glean’s $260M Series E round, valuing the company at $4.6B.
We first met Arvind Jain last year and quickly fell in love with his vision for Glean: to bring work AI to enterprises. Here’s what we find so exciting about what Arvind and the Glean team are building:
🔎Best-in-class search product — The key to making generative AI work in the enterprise is being able to connect LLMs with an enterprise’s data in a way that’s scalable, secure, and reflects the breadth and depth of a company’s knowledge. Glean gives enterprises the best search experience on the market, using AI to help workers find and retrieve knowledge quickly and at scale.
❤️Unprecedented customer love — Today, hundreds of companies leverage Glean to power their productivity. We heard from dozens of customers that Glean is a game-changing tool in their stack. We heard over and over that folks couldn’t imagine work without Glean and wanted all information to be “Gleanable.” Enterprises love Glean, and users love Glean. Their astronomical growth is proof of this.
✨Work AI roadmap — Glean started off by giving enterprises the best search experience, allowing workers to find and retrieve the knowledge they need to succeed. The evolution beyond search has included an AI chat assistant and a platform to create agents and applications. But the team is just getting started. Today’s product announcement is real-time proof of their product vision.
Arvind and his talented team have an ambitious vision for AI in the workplace, and we are excited to be on the journey with Glean.
