Overview
Sana is an AI workspace built by Sana Labs, a Swedish company founded in 2016 by Joel Hellermark. Workday completed its purchase of Sana for about 1.1 billion dollars in November 2025, and Workday relaunched Sana as an AI platform in March 2026. The product combines three things: an assistant that answers questions from company documents and connected systems, a no-code builder for agents that carry out repetitive multi-step tasks, and meeting support that works with recordings from Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet. The same company also sells Sana Learn, an AI learning platform that can generate courses and tutoring. Sana can read PDF, Office, Google Docs, spreadsheet and MP4 files. It connects to business systems such as CRMs through ready-made connectors, and teams can build custom integrations through an MCP client. Integrated sources can keep the permissions they have in the original system. The product supports more than 50 languages. Pricing is now enterprise-only and quoted on request. A pricing tracker records that the earlier Free plan and the 30 dollar per user Team plan were withdrawn around October 2026. The Enterprise plan includes unlimited members and documents, SAML SSO, SCIM, an analytics dashboard, an SLA and single-tenant deployment. The main limitations are the lack of transparent pricing and no entry tier for small teams. There is also little independent user review evidence, and buyers should expect Sana's roadmap to follow Workday's agent strategy.
Our Rating
Who Sana is best for
Good fit
The only plan sold is Enterprise. It includes SSO, SCIM, an SLA, single-tenant deployment and a dedicated success team.
Less suited
Search across documents and meetings suits knowledge-heavy firms, but the enterprise-only pricing limits smaller practices.
It offers SAML SSO, SCIM, permission-preserving connectors and single-tenant deployment.
Larger mid-sized companies can benefit from the connectors and agents, but they must negotiate a custom quote.
Sana Learn generates AI courses and tutoring.
It is owned by Workday, and Sana Learn supports training.
The Free and Team plans have been removed, so small companies must go through an enterprise sales process.
Only enterprise pricing is available.
The Free and Team plans were removed, so only an enterprise quote is available.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Sana claims more than one million users, including Merck and Polestar, and the product is now backed by Workday.
- Integrated sources keep their original permissions, which reduces the risk of oversharing in knowledge search.
- Includes SAML SSO, SCIM, AES-256 encryption at rest and a single-tenant deployment option.
- Handles many content types, including meeting recordings, Office files, spreadsheets and video.
- Non-technical staff can build agents with the no-code builder and extend integrations through an MCP client.
Cons
- There is no public pricing. Only a custom Enterprise quote is available.
- The Free and Team plans were removed in 2026, so there is no way for small teams to start.
- Independent reviews are scarce: Gartner Peer Insights showed only one rating.
- Vendor pages contradict each other on SOC 2 status, listing both Type 1 and Type 2.
- The roadmap now depends on Workday's agent strategy, which may matter less to companies that do not use Workday.
