Guru is an AI powered knowledge management platform that surfaces verified answers to employees in the flow of work, inside Slack, the browser, help desks and other tools, rather than in a separate wiki they have to visit. Founded in 2013 in Philadelphia, it combines a knowledge base, an AI enterprise search that answers questions across connected tools, and a verification system that keeps content accurate. For companies where employees waste time hunting for information, Guru brings the right answer to them, which has made it a leader in modern knowledge management and enablement.
Guru's distinction is knowledge in the flow of work plus verification. Instead of hoping people visit a wiki, Guru delivers answers where they already work and flags when content needs reverifying, so knowledge stays trusted. Combined with AI search across connected apps, that makes it powerful for enterprise knowledge and for enabling support and sales teams.
Guru is best for mid market and enterprise teams that want AI powered knowledge surfaced where employees work, with verification to keep it trusted, especially support, sales and operations teams. It suits companies where finding accurate information fast matters. It is a weaker fit for teams wanting a polished customer facing help center, where Document360 fits, or the simplest collaborative wiki, where Notion or Slab fit.
The core strengths are a knowledge base with content verification, AI enterprise search that answers questions across connected tools like Slack, help desks and docs, and delivery in the flow of work through a browser extension and app integrations. Guru adds an intranet and employee engagement features, analytics, and AI assistants. Its combination of in context delivery, AI search and verification is its defining advantage.
Guru is priced per user per month, with its All in one plan from around 15 US dollars per user, and higher Enterprise pricing adding AI, security and scale, with a free trial. Because it prices per user, cost scales with how many employees use it, which suits teams where broad access to knowledge is the point. Confirm current figures on the Guru pricing page.
Guru integrates with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Chrome, help desks, CRMs and many other tools, and its AI search connects across them to answer from all your knowledge. Its browser extension and in app delivery are central, bringing answers into the tools employees already use rather than a separate destination.
AI is central to Guru, powering enterprise search that answers questions from across connected tools, AI assistants, and help maintaining content. Combined with its verification system, Guru's AI aims to deliver trusted answers instantly, which is increasingly how knowledge management works and why Guru rates so highly.
Guru is well regarded for ease of use and for delivering value by meeting employees where they work, with good support. Its G2 reviews are among the highest in knowledge management, praising AI search, verification and in context delivery, with per user cost at scale the main consideration.
For a mid market or enterprise team that wants AI powered, verified knowledge surfaced where employees work, Guru is one of the strongest and highest rated choices available. The main cautions are that per user pricing scales with broad adoption and that it is built for internal knowledge and enablement rather than polished customer help centers, where Document360 fits, but for in context enterprise knowledge, Guru leads.
