Dropbox has developed a tool that ensures your documents are found wherever they are. The resource, powered by artificial intelligence, searches for files in all possible ways, whether on your computer or on the Internet. In particular, they are not limited to the platform itself and can show even if it is in other cloud software. Named “Dash”, it is now available to “Pro” subscribers to its services.

It originated from the acquisition of Command E acquired by the corporation in 2021. After that, they started developing the tool and saw how it could be extended with AI to get the result we see today. Dropbox CEO Drew Houston says this will further help users organize and make it easier to find files, whether they’re on your computer or tucked away in some other obscure corner of the internet.

Houston claims that Dash has ambitions to be the “Google” of your personal documents. “We used to have 100 files or icons on the desktop. Today there are 100 tabs open in the browser with your Google Docs, your Aritables, Figmas and everything in between. “Okay, someone sent this for me. Was it by email? Was it on Slack? Was it in text? Maybe it was copied from a chat during some kind of Zoom meeting.” With the new service, they promise that this will no longer be a problem that others have already tried to accomplish without success.

It’s easier with Dasha

It is worth noting that the software has two fronts: an application that you can download to your PC, and an extension for your browser that turns a new tab into a set of files that you can access at any time. The AI ​​also looks at your appointments, pulling together documents that it thinks might be useful within your topic. Another cool feature is the Stack, which allows you to collect related files to make it easier to find the right topic. Links will also be provided to help you with the topic covered.

For the Dropbox CEO, the days spent organizing are over. “Not everyone needs to be a librarian moving files around a computer.” Given that they have the advantage of making a deal to integrate platforms like Airtables and Figmas into Dash, the future for using AI in the business market looks bright.

In addition to the “Pro” subscription and for some corporations, Dash also has a beta version that the public can subscribe to to help develop it.
