What it does
Dropbox Paper is an online document workspace within Dropbox for creating and sharing collaborative documents. Dropbox describes using it for meeting notes, project plans, and brainstorming, with text, images, media, checklists, comments, mentions, and assigned to-dos in a shared doc.
Keep early project work in one shared document
Paper is suited to working documents such as meeting notes, project plans, and brainstorms. A team can add images, files, code blocks, and checklists, then use comments and mentions to discuss a particular passage and assign follow-up tasks. Dropbox's learning guide describes real-time collaboration and storing Paper docs alongside other Dropbox files.
This is a document workspace inside Dropbox rather than a dedicated wiki with a persistent taxonomy of topics. It may be a better fit for collaborative drafts and project documents than for a large governed knowledge base. No account or collaborative document was used.
