Nick [Analyst]'s questions to Dropbox Inc (DBX) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
An analyst from Citizens asked if changes to third-party API access, such as those by Slack, have impacted Dropbox Dash and how the company is navigating this environment.
Answer
Co-Founder & CEO Drew Houston acknowledged that Dropbox has had to adapt to Slack's API changes but emphasized that they still have access and a good partnership. He stated that while some technical aspects might be more onerous, a complete cutoff is unlikely as it would be customer-hostile. He added that Dropbox's ability to integrate deeply and leverage technical measures could become a competitive advantage for Dash.
