What Dropbox Dash is
Dropbox Dash is an AI-powered workspace for searching team knowledge across connected apps and getting answers from work content. It can find files, images, and videos, then provide answers sourced from that content. Teams can organize and share material in Stacks, context-rich links that preserve original access settings. Full integrations include Slack, Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Confluence, Jira, Microsoft Teams, Asana, Zoom, Google Calendar, Outlook, Gmail, Notion, and Canva. Dash is available on the web, Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS, as well as through Chrome, Edge, and Safari extensions. Its mobile app, available in select countries, supports activity, Stacks, search, and questions about content. The listed starting price is $19 per user per month, and a 30-day trial is available; there is no free plan. Dropbox says customer data is not used to build generative AI models. Dash has SOC 2 Type II compliance and adheres to GDPR and CCPA. Admins can manage access to company content at document level, and plans may add a future limit on connected-app items per member, with at least 30 days' notice.
