Ask and write with Dash

2 Minute(n) Lesezeit

Dropbox Dash provides powerful AI tools designed to boost your productivity and streamline content creation. It includes two main features—Ask and Write—each tailored to support different aspects of your workflow. Ask helps you engage with your content through questions, summaries and data extraction. Write focuses on drafting and editing to refine your ideas.

How it works
Dash gathers insights from your apps while respecting all access permissions, keeping your content private and secure. No matter your role, Dash is here to make your day more efficient.

What you can—and can’t—do with Dash

What you can do:

  • Use Ask to answer your questions and uncover hidden insights from your documents.

  • Use Write to streamline content creation and generate various types of content.

  • Summarize documents and emails.

  • Incorporate preset tones and company tones to match your organization's voice.

  • Personalize your content by creating custom writing tones and templates so you always sound like you.

What you can’t do:

  • Perform tasks outside of your

    existing permissions

  • Access content in apps that aren’t added

  • Share source files you upload

  • Summarize a spreadsheet

Try these prompts

The following examples illustrate how you can interact with the tools in Dash to accomplish specific tasks:

  • Emails
    "Write a professional email to [recipient] about [topic]. Keep it concise and polite."
    "Draft a follow-up email for a meeting we had on [date] about [subject]."

  • Reports
    Upload a report, and then type, "Generate a one-page executive summary of this report."

  • Meetings notes
    Upload meeting notes, and then type, "Generate a list of action items from these meeting notes.”

  • Ideas
    "Draft a proposal for [project or service] with key benefits highlighted.”

  • "Generate ideas for a marketing campaign targeting [audience].”

What data sources are used?

Dropbox Dash pulls in content from:

  • Added apps: Dash searches files and information across any added apps. When members add an app, only they can search its content.

  • Files you upload to Dash.

Access and permissions implications

Dash operates within the existing access setup of your organization. Sensitive information remains protected by current access and permission settings.
