Box has announced a new suite of AI-powered innovations designed to transform how organisations manage content. The new offerings include Box AI Studio, which enables businesses to create and deploy powerful Box AI agents tailored to their unique requirements, and Box Apps, which simplifies the process of building applications for critical business processes such as contract management, invoice processing, and employee onboarding.

Box has also introduced Enterprise Advanced, a new plan that combines the full power of the Box Intelligent Content Management platform into a single offering. Box AI Studio is set to begin rolling out in January 2025, offering enterprises more customisation and control over how they apply AI to their content.

"90 percent of the data in an enterprise is unstructured - and the vast majority of that data is content. Innovation in LLMs has transformed our ability to more easily structure that data, freeing it from data silos and connecting it with business processes," said Aaron Levie, Co-founder and CEO of Box. "That's all changing with Intelligent Content Management from Box. For the first time ever, businesses of all sizes will be able to realise the full value of their content and leverage the data inside their files to drive innovation, automate processes, and secure their most important information at a fraction of the cost of legacy systems."

With AI Studio, admins can select their preferred AI model from Box's list of trusted providers to create tailored Box AI agents with custom prompts and parameters to match their specific industry needs and workflows. Box AI Studio allows admins to create, test, and deploy powerful Box AI agents, switch between different AI models, develop custom prompts, track and analyse model performance, set permissions and access controls, and integrate Box AI Studio into existing tech stacks and workflows.

Box Apps, available in Beta today, is a no-code solution that makes it easier to create intelligent applications that manage content-centric business processes at scale. Box Apps can run AI-powered metadata extraction that revolutionises running content-centric business process automation at scale.

Box has also introduced two new features, Box Forms and Box Doc Gen, available in Beta today. Box Forms allows users to design and publish web and mobile forms, while Box Doc Gen automatically creates custom documents within Box by pulling data from Box Forms, third-party apps, custom apps, and metadata.

"Box continues to add innovative capabilities to its Intelligent Content Management platform to support the content life cycle including, most recently, metadata management and generative AI, enabling users to generate additional business value from unstructured data," said Holly Muscolino, Group Vice President, IDC, Workplace Solutions. "Its ease of use, regional deployments, and strong security capabilities make Box a good option for organisations of all sizes that are looking for a modern SaaS intelligent content cloud services platform."
