    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    And that worked fine for ad hoc kinds of sharing between individuals or small groups, but for larger teams, it could be hard to understand the content sitting in folders without context.

    Enter Box Hubs, a new tool for creating a centralized micro site for sharing specialized kinds of content.

    This takes the shape of a specialized portal designed to hold things like HR policies, brand assets or the latest pricing information for a sales team.

    The hub format provides a highly curated set of information to search on, something that Levie admits they hadn’t considered until ChatGPT emerged last year.

    “What we landed on, frankly coincidentally, is that once you’ve curated your data in a [subject-specific content portal], and users ask a question within that context, you actually get much better answers and much higher likelihood of the right type of response.”

    It’s important to note that while both products were announced today, they won’t be available in beta until some time next year.
