Box launches AI-powered Automate service
Box is launching Box Automate, a new AI-driven workflow service designed to help businesses handle repetitive processes such as invoice management, document extraction and large-scale data processing more efficiently.
CEO Aaron Levie said the platform allows companies to deploy AI agents into operational workflows, automating tasks like extracting key invoice data, processing corporate documents and preparing decisions for human review.
Box Automate will be included across most enterprise plans, while more advanced automation tools may encourage upgrades to higher-tier offerings. The launch reflects Box’s broader strategy to evolve from cloud storage into AI-enabled enterprise infrastructure.
Levie emphasized that while AI can dramatically improve productivity, businesses still require human oversight for critical systems due to operational and security risks.
