About Box
Box is a cloud content platform for storing, sharing and managing business files. It also offers workflow automation, e-signature and AI tools that work on the content you store.
What it does
Teams store files in Box, set permissions on who can see or edit them, and share them inside or outside the company. No-code workflows automate approvals and routine business processes. Box AI can read and extract information from documents, and e-signature requests can be sent and tracked. Developers can build on Box through its APIs, SDKs and an MCP server.
Key features
- Secure file storage with sharing permissions
- No-code workflow automation
- E-signature requests and tracking
- Metadata extraction and AI features over files
- APIs, SDKs and an MCP server for developers
Who it's for
Box suits enterprises, IT teams, legal and finance groups, and developers who build apps on top of stored content. Organizations in regulated fields often use it for controlled file sharing.
Pricing and good to know
Developers can sign up for free, and the site lists separate add-on pricing for the platform. Enterprise plans have their own terms. Setting up permissions and workflows takes planning, so review the admin settings before you migrate large file collections.
