Summarize documents in Dropbox Dash

Let's start with a very common moment, needing context fast. I'm Angie on the social media team for a publisher. It's Monday morning, I haven't had nearly enough caffeine, and I just got tagged in our company messaging system asking me to write a post about a book I listened to the specs on a few weeks ago, and I don't have time to relisten for a refresh. I have a choice. I can make it clear to my team that my retention of information is low, or I can dash it. I choose dash.

So I type in Birch Sky keywords in the name of the book. Dash gives me a ton of search results, which is cool, but I'm short on time. So instead of reading through a thirty page deck or scrolling through Slack, Dash Chat summarizes for me the status of the book and just like that I have a quick gist of what this project is. Now that I have some general context, I can make my way down to my search results pausing on the blue summarize and ask star on any of these pieces that are relevant to the book.

So as I go through piece by piece and consume that knowledge, I can go back to search to hone my browsing or honestly it would be better if someone had made a stack on this so I could just summarize and ask within it. But hey, I wasn't involved until just now.
