You want Glean-style search across many apps at a lower per-seat price, with the option of running it in your own cloud.
Certant vs GoSearch
GoSearch searches across your apps at per-seat pricing. Certant answers from your documents with the paragraph attached, and can run air-gapped.
Which one fits you
Your knowledge sits in long documents, scans and tables, answers have to cite the paragraph, or you need a deployment with no internet connection at all.
