The information in this article applies to all Dropbox users.

Dash for Teams and Dash for Business are two plans that make Dash, our AI-powered productivity tool, available directly in Dropbox. If you meet the requirements, you can try Dash for Teams for free.

Learn more about Dash plans.

How to access Dash

If you or your team are currently on a Dropbox account, you can access Dash from the right-side panel on the Dropbox home page. From there, you can search across Dropbox and connected apps, use Dash Chat to interact with your content, and connect more apps.

You can also access the standalone Dash product at any time by visiting dash.ai.

Who can start a Dash for Teams trial

You can start a Dash for Teams free trial if you meet these requirements:

  • You or your team is on one of these eligible team plans:
    • Dropbox Basic
    • Dropbox Standard
    • Dropbox Business
    • Dropbox Advanced
    • Dropbox Business Plus
  • You’re located in the United States, United Kingdom, or Australia.
  • Your Dropbox account’s primary language is set to English.
  • Your Dropbox account doesn’t require HIPAA compliance.
  • Your Dropbox account has managed encryption key turned off.
  • If your Dropbox team account includes Replay or Sign, all users must have licenses. 

If you’re on one of these plans, you can try Dash in your Dropbox account.

Additionally, if you meet the requirements above and don’t currently have a Dropbox account, you can try a free preview of Dash as part of a Dropbox trial. Learn how to sign up for a trial of Dropbox with Dash.

Notes:

  • If you don’t already have a Dropbox account, you’ll get Dropbox Basic when you start your Dash trial.
  • If you already have a Dropbox Basic account at the start of a Dash for Teams trial, you may see more storage availability while your trial is active. When your Dash for Teams trial ends or your team is disbanded, your storage limit will return to the quota on your original Dropbox plan.
  • Users who at any point previously enrolled in a free preview of Dash may still be eligible to start a new free trial of Dropbox with Dash included.

Note: If you were on an eligible trial of Dash in Dropbox and you don’t move to a paid Dash plan, Dash features will be removed from your Dropbox account after the trial. Connected-app data and Dash search history won’t be saved.

Team admins

 

If you are an admin and you decide not to continue utilizing Dropbox Dash for Teams after your trial period, the Dash sidebar and all related features will be removed from your team's Dropbox account. Your data from connected apps and search history in Dash won’t be saved.

 

When you next log in to Dash, you’ll be prompted to convert to a paid Dropbox Dash for Teams plan, to disband your team from Dash, or permanently delete Dash data.
