Launching Now: Dokkio In-App Chat

We’re excited to share that In-App Chat is now rolling out across Dokkio accounts.

Thanks to valuable feedback from early testers (you know who you are!) we’ve refined the experience and added new capabilities to help make your content more accessible and actionable.

In-App Chat brings ChatGPT-style intelligence directly into the Dokkio web app, Dokkio for Windows, and Dokkio for Mac. It’s built to help you:

Find what matters fast – Search across your documents and emails in natural language.

Act on what you find – Rename files, clean up folders, or draft follow-up emails instantly.

Pick up where you left off – Your chat history is saved and can easily be revisited and reused.

See more, faster – Relevant documents are now linked directly in your chat results.

Access more easily – In-App Chat now lives right under “Home” in the global navigation bar.

We’re enabling more users every day, so the rollout will take a while. If the “AI Content Chat” link is disabled in your account and you want to move to the front of the line, let us know at support@dokkio.com.

Want Smarter Search in Dokkio? Join Our New Test Group

We’re rolling out a new feature in Dokkio called Semantic Search, and we’re inviting interested users to start using it now.

Semantic Search lets you find content based on meaning, not just keywords. Instead of matching exact phrases, Dokkio will understand what you’re looking for and return relevant files, even if the words don’t match exactly.

For example:

You search: “vacation plans”

Dokkio might surface files about hotels, travel bookings, trip itineraries—anything related to a vacation, even if “vacation” isn’t mentioned.

This feature is designed to make your searches faster, more intuitive, and much more powerful.

If you’re interested in trying it out and sharing your feedback, you can sign up here:

https://forms.gle/R8E3kNme8ZpueGYm6

We’re starting with a limited group so we can learn quickly and iterate.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Get Ready for a Smarter Dokkio – Introducing MCP AI

We’re excited to announce an upcoming addition to the Dokkio platform: MCP AI — a powerful new capability designed to help you get meaningful insights from your content just by asking questions.

In short, this is ChatGPT for YOUR files.

With MCP AI (Multi-Content Processing AI), you can ask natural-language questions like:

  • “What are the main takeaways from last month’s meeting notes?”
  • “Summarize my recent project files.”
  • “Where are my 2023 tax documents stored?”

Here’s how MCP AI can help:

  • Ask questions like “What are the main points across these meeting notes?” or “Which files relate to my Q2 project?”
  • Get fast summaries or answers without needing to open each file.
  • Use Dokkio not just as storage, but as a thinking partner for your digital work.

We’ll be rolling out MCP AI to a limited group of users first before expanding access more broadly.

Interested in early access?

New Dokkio iPhone app improvements

Thanks to all of you who have tested the Dokkio iPhone App, and given us feedback. We’ve updated the app several times since the start of the year, including just yesterday.

If you haven’t tried it for a while, please come back and check out:

  • Solid Reliability – we’ve done a lot of work to eliminate app crashes 
  • Improved Search Filtering – including filter/find-by-name 
  • Browse-and-navigate UX – starting from a clean, open “Sources” panel, and more 
  • Cleaner, more visual UI – cleaner use of icons and thumbnails throughout 
  • Login – cleaner design to login with Google or Dropbox, or using email & password

If you’ve tested the app in the past, just tap the Dokkio app icon or go to TestFlight on your iPhone and it will update. If you have not tested our iPhone app before, but want to, just let us know:

We prioritize iPhone enhancements based on user feedback, so let us hear from you!

And thank you for being part of the Dokkio community!

Dokkio’s New Feature: Manage Duplicate Files

Finding and managing duplicate files just got a lot easier and just in time for your (digital) spring cleaning.

We’re excited to announce support for managing duplicate files with the same or different filenames. This feature is among the most popular requests from our users, and it enables you to:

  • Identify duplicates across all connected sources (not just Google Drive and Gmail)

  • See duplicates (files with the exact same contents), and manage them through actions (move, delete, etc.)

  • Use a dedicated “Manage Duplicates” section that lists all groups of duplicates, and see at a glance, when viewing a file in Dokkio, whether it has duplicate copies

This feature is now active, and you will be able to see it by clicking the settings menu (your name in the lower left). From there, you will see “Manage Duplicate Files.”

As always, if you have any questions or feature requests, please email us at support@dokkio.com.

Thank you for being a Dokkio user!

Dokkio Introduces Topics

Nearly half of our users tell us that they want to organize their content around relevant “topics”. But, it’s a lot of work to identify what those relevant topics are — AI should do the work to figure that out!

The Dokkio team has been developing a capability that identifies the key topics for your files, suggests those topics for your approval or rejection, and then automatically tags files by topic. We believe this is a major step forward in our mission to help users automatically “organize their stuff”, and are actively looking for participants to help test this feature as it rolls out.

If you’re intrigued, let us know at support@dokkio.com and we’ll enable this free feature for your content. As a reminder, this does not alter the source content, just how it’s organized in the Dokkio app.

Announcing Dokkio Sidebar 4!

Today, we’re excited to release the biggest enhancement to Dokkio Sidebar since MultiSearch!

Sidebar 4 brings a better user experience and new features that make Sidebar less intrusive, more useful, and easier to understand.

The changes you will see in Sidebar 4 include:

  • New Panel: Sidebar 4 appears as a full-height overlay panel on the right-hand side of the browser window, instead of a smaller floating panel. This provides a clearer split between page contents and Sidebar, and it gives Sidebar more room to surface your valuable information.
  • Easy to dismiss: Rather than having to explicitly “X” out of Sidebar to dismiss it, you can click anywhere in the body of the page you are viewing to hide Sidebar.
  • In-line MultiSearch for web searches: When you do a web search, Sidebar now presents MultiSearch results in-line with the rest of your Google, Bing, or Yahoo results. So Sidebar does not obscure important page content; the Sidebar search results blend right in.
  • In-line MultiSearch for Gmail searches: In Gmail, Sidebar now shows MultiSearch results in a one-line “mini-banner” at the top of the page, rather than covering any page content.
  • Enhanced LinkedIn, Facebook and YouTube pages: When viewing a profile page (for a person or organization), Sidebar automatically shows related information from your content.
  • New “Important” Tab: Dokkio understands your content, identifies the new or revised items that may be most relevant to you, and surfaces it – just one click away – on the “Important” tab.
  • Improved UX: Sidebar 4 has a cleaner, more intuitive look and terminology. Feature tabs have moved to the top of Sidebar, clip & screenshot buttons are handier, lists of files, emails, and pages provide more context, and we’ve renamed “Saved” Pages to “Visited” Pages for clarity.
  • Improved Auto-Capture of Visited Pages: The Sidebar icon and panel more clearly indicate when you are, or aren’t, automatically capturing and tagging the pages you visit.

If you tried Sidebar in the past, and removed it because it was “too aggressive”, you owe it to yourself to try it again! We’re confident that Sidebar 4 delivers a lot more value and a much clearer UX.

You can install (or re-install) Sidebar for Chrome or Edge for free — or sign up for a free demo — through the following link:

Install Dokkio Sidebar 4

If you already have Sidebar installed, it should automatically update to version 4 today.

As always, please reach out to support@dokkio.com if you have questions or feedback. Many of the improvements in Sidebar 4 are the direct result of feedback from users like you.

If you like what we’ve done with Sidebar 4, please leave a rating and a review in the Chrome Web Store or Microsoft Edge Add-ons. We get a significant percentage of new Dokkio users from our listings.

Dokkio Mobile App for iOS Coming Soon

We are thrilled to share some exciting news with you!

One of our goals here at Dokkio is to make all your online information easily available to you when you need it, wherever you are. In the coming weeks, Dokkio will launch a prototype of an iPhone app designed to do just that and we’d love for our users to be a part of shaping its functionality and development.

We will offer exclusive early access to our app prototype via TestFlight, a service that helps install and test mobile iOS apps. A link to register for access will follow in a future blog post, but in the meantime, we want to hear your ideas about how Dokkio’s iOS app would be most helpful to you.

Share your thoughts with us at support@dokkio.com.

As always, thank you for being a Dokkio user. We look forward to getting Dokkio for iPhone into your hands soon!

Improved Sidebar MultiSearch in Gmail

Sidebar, Dokkio’s browser extension, now extends Gmail search with a new look. Some users have told us that our previous approach (a floating panel with Dokkio search results appearing when you did a Gmail search) obscured important information in the browser window.

Now, Sidebar shows MultiSearch results inline, in a one-line “mini-banner”. This retains Dokkio’s “we’ll automatically find it, wherever it lives” approach, but with a lot less clutter. Here’s a screenshot showing what it looks like:

In this case, a search in Gmail for “bmw” provided some results, but they weren’t quite what we were looking for. Below the search bar you can see that Dokkio found 71 results in the content connected to the underlying Dokkio account. Clicking the Dokkio logo expands the side panel, which provides a list view of mirrored search results for your Dokkio account – in this case, results for “bmw”. If you have yet to try Dokkio Sidebar or would like to re-enable it, you can do so by visiting the following link:
