SIMOSphere AI — The Better Alternative to Glean
European AI search with data sovereignty.
Glean is a US-based enterprise AI search platform that connects to internal knowledge. SIMOSphere AI provides similar AI-powered search capabilities but with full EU data residency, automatic PII redaction, and MCP-based integration — all processed exclusively on German infrastructure.

- 1Full data residency in Germany — Glean processes data on US servers
- 2GDPR-compliant by architecture — automatic PII redaction before any LLM call
- 3On-premise deployment available — Glean is cloud-only with US infrastructure
- 4MCP-based integration with any system — not limited to Glean connectors
- 5No per-query pricing — transparent per-seat pricing from EUR 53.99/month
