FileDrop is a productivity suite to manage files, extract text, translate and do more with AI. Available as an add-on and online web app, see our website as well.

FileDrop works as a file manager in your Google Sheets™, Google Docs™ and Google Slides™ providing an easy access to your recent uploaded files or your entire Google  Drive™.
