Dropbox has launched two integrations that let Google Gemini work with the files and folders stored in a user's account, the company said today. The pair of experiences, Gemini chat and Gemini Spark, are available only in the US and only in English at launch. Both run through the Gemini web app at gemini.google.com, and neither has a stated price or a specific launch date beyond today's publication.

The two experiences target different users. The Dropbox app for Gemini is open to anyone with a personal Google Account who is at least 18 years old and located in the US. Gemini Spark is reserved for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in the US. Users connect the service by opening Settings, then Personal Intelligence, then Connected Apps, and selecting Dropbox.

Gemini chat handles the everyday work: it can locate content in Dropbox, summarize it, and build new material from it. Gemini Spark goes further by organizing files, generating shareable links, and creating file requests. It also runs automated workflows that span multiple steps. Drafts produced in Gemini can be exported to a Google Doc with one click.

Access is not unlimited. Dropbox says Gemini's reach matches whatever folders and files a user is already cleared to open in Dropbox. Before it shares anything, deletes anything, or changes permissions, Gemini asks the user to confirm, according to the company. That confirmation step applies across both experiences.

The launch extends a run of similar partnerships. Earlier this month Dropbox said it was bringing project context into the ChatGPT Library, and before that it joined OpenAI's Small Business collection as an inaugural partner, a set of 16 essential tools. In July, Dropbox said use of its AI partner integrations had more than doubled from a month earlier. The company also announced an integration with Claude in June.

What the announcement leaves open is notable. Dropbox did not disclose pricing for either Gemini experience, did not name a launch date beyond today, and did not mention a mobile app or availability outside the US. For now the integration lives on the web, in English, for American users.
