Lior Delgo is an entrepreneur with a proven track record of building disruptive technology and new business models. with the ability to not only answer questions intelligently, but beyond this, to act intelligently on behalf of the user as more of a partner than just an application. Agentic systems are extremely challenging to build, requiring deep data science expertise, a secure foundation and enterprise-level scale, but they more than make up for their level of complexity with the value they provide.
Globality’ s AI agent, Glo, was designed as an agentic AI from the very beginning – long before the term became a buzzword. In fact, Glo was conceived from Globality’ s very first day.
The very first code written in my garage( yes, a Silicon Valley cliché, but true!) was a prototype of Glo, designed to understand natural language and process long-form sourcing requests at a time when search capabilities were limited to multiple keywords. From the start, we recognised that true AI-driven procurement required more than just conversational interfaces – it needed intelligence, actionability and deep domain expertise. Unlike many companies now scrambling to retrofit agentic AI into their products, Glo was built with this approach at its core. It was never an afterthought for us; it’ s embedded in our DNA.
Back then, even as we pushed the boundaries of AI, we couldn’ t have imagined the exponential leaps in intelligence we’ re witnessing today. The pace of breakthroughs is staggering. But our original vision remains intact: Glo was never meant to be just a chatbot – it was built as an interactive dialogue
