Dropbox Launches Dash for Business
Dropbox has announced the launch of Dash for Businessan AI-powered search tool designed to help teams efficiently search, organize, share, and secure content across connected apps.
Dash for Business provides businesses of all sizes with advanced content access control, streamlining their data management and security capabilities across platforms.
Modern work often requires employees to search through multiple disconnected apps, tabs, and emails, leading to information fragmentation. Business Dash aims to solve this by allowing users to search for all their content in one place, regardless of where it is stored.
The tool integrates with multiple apps, including Google Drive, OneDrive, Notion, and Asana, and works with email, calendars, and more, ensuring users can quickly find the information they need.
Key features of Dash for Business:
- Universal Search: Business Dash allows users to search for information stored in cloud-based applications using keywords, queries, descriptions, or commands. The AI-powered tool provides real-time feedback and can summarize content without opening files.
- Platform-Agnostic: Business Dash is compatible with Dropbox and other platforms such as Google Drive and OneDrive, allowing users to connect multiple applications for a seamless search experience.
- Stacks and the front page: Stacks, a popular Dash feature, allow users to collect, organize, and share content. The home page provides access to general search, stacks, recent work shortcuts, and work feeds, helping users stay on top of their projects and updates.
- AI-Powered Answers: A new feature, “Answers,” enables users to ask questions about their content and generate deeper insights by revealing links to related content and follow-up questions.
Advanced Content Access Control
In addition to improving productivity, Dash for Business offers advanced access controls, allowing IT managers to manage and protect sensitive company data. Using Dropbox’s newly acquired platform, Nira, Dash for Business allows administrators to view and update document permissions at the individual or batch level, preventing unauthorized access. This functionality ensures only the right people and teams have access to sensitive data.

Dash for Business is currently available in the US in English for web and desktop users, with plans to expand to additional markets by early 2025. Groups interested in learning more can visit https://dash.dropbox.com/.
