eGain powers AI-driven knowledge management for the enterprise. We sell our SaaS platform to enterprises that want to deliver trusted, consumable answers to customers, employees, and AI agents — aiming to reduce cost and improve outcomes across knowledge-intensive workflow. Our platform centralizes enterprise knowledge and puts it to work across customer service, employee support, and AI-powered automation. We are headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, USA.

In July 2026, Gartner named eGain a Leader in the first-ever Magic Quadrant for Customer Service Knowledge Management Systems, positioned highest for Ability to Execute and furthest for Completeness of Vision. Our solutions are used by large enterprises and government organizations across North America and Europe.
Our assessment, based on more than two decades of serving clients, is that good contact center agents ignore most information piled on their screens across multiple windows and tabs when they are interacting with customers. They focus on the customer conversation. Meanwhile, businesses expect agents to remember and refresh growing know-how that is needed to answer customer questions across complex, expanding product portfolios and compliance-heavy processes, and then recall it contextually in the moment of truth, when the customer is on the line. In addition, this is expected of an entry-level workforce that is not well-paid, routinely replaced, and globally dispersed, mainly for cost reasons. This knowledge and guidance gap helps explain why Gartner has identified knowledge management systems, alongside live chat and self-service portals, as essential tools for fast, scalable support, and why 58% of customer service leaders in a Gartner survey published in December 2025 said they plan to upskill agents into knowledge management specialists.
In a world selling commoditized, yet complex products to time-strapped customers, smart tools must increasingly automate self-service interactions and augment agent-assisted customer experiences. In a hybrid workplace, businesses realize that they need to invest in tools that can guide agents and customers with trusted answers, ensuring compliance. Further, AI investments are struggling to deliver value at scale because of the "Garbage In Garbage Out" problem of fragmented knowledge content across an enterprise. We believe the answer is a centralized knowledge hub, a single source of truth that is powered by AI and orchestrated by experts in the loop. Gartner expects this shift to accelerate, predicting that by 2028, 40% of large enterprises will adopt AI-powered customer service knowledge automation, up from less than 5% in 2025.
