Sana

Sana is the enterprise AI platform of Sana Labs AB, a Swedish company that became part of Workday in 2025-11. Through Sana Agents (a permission-aware RAG knowledge assistant plus a no-code Agent builder) and Sana Learn (an AI-native LMS/LXP), it embeds AI into a company's existing apps, knowledge, and culture, serving the L&D, HR, and operations teams of knowledge-intensive mid-size and large enterprises.

Core capabilities

• Permission-aware retrieval: semantic search across 100+ systems, answers with deep-link citations, returning only content the asker is entitled to see
• No-code Agent building: custom personas, sources, and permissions for multi-step automated workflows
• Action and authoring: write operations in external tools (update the CRM, dispatch tickets), plus generated documents, dashboards, and reports
• AI-native learning: Sana Learn unifies LMS+LXP+authoring+virtual classrooms, with AI Tutor and SCORM import
• Security and integrations: switch between OpenAI, Claude, and other models, connect 100+ apps; SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, SAML SSO, SCIM

Where it fits L&D/HR and sales/support/operations teams at knowledge-intensive mid-size and large enterprises (finance, consulting, law firms, technology); organizations that need knowledge retrieval + Agent automation + training in one place. Individuals and small teams can start with Agents Free/Team.

What sets it apart Unlike the pure search of Glean and Onyx, Sana is built on structured learning content, so it goes deeper on training + onboarding; against traditional LMS platforms such as Docebo it deploys faster (2–4 weeks vs 6–12 weeks), and AI runs through authoring, retrieval, Tutor, and analytics — an AI-native architecture rather than a bolt-on.

Editorial take It sits in the top tier of the AI-native enterprise learning + knowledge/Agent category, backed by a real $0 free tier and Workday's roughly $1.1B acquisition. G2's about 105 reviews are the only substantial sample (about 4.8/5); other platforms have too few reviews to judge, so no firm verdict on reputation is possible. Points are deducted for Sana Learn's 300-user minimum and for pricing transparency.
