The Dropbox migration problem
Your PDFs, reports, and case files live in Dropbox because that's where your team stores everything. To use most AI research tools, you start from zero every time.
Years of research, locked in Dropbox
Your PDFs, reports, and case files live in Dropbox because that's where your team stores everything. The download-then-reupload cycle is high enough friction that most professionals never start.
Manual file transfer kills momentum
Every new analysis means find, download, open, upload again. By the time you're ready to ask your first question, you've lost 20 minutes. Otio eliminates the cycle entirely.
Your library stays where it belongs
Dropbox remains your file home. Otio becomes your research workspace. No duplication, no version control headaches, no wondering which copy is current.
One connection, unlimited research
Connect your Dropbox account once. From then on, importing files takes seconds. Mix Dropbox PDFs with web articles, YouTube videos, and podcasts in the same workspace.
Beyond storage - research across everything
Research across your entire library, not one file at a time
Dropbox stores your files. Dropbox Dash finds them. Dropbox AI summarises one at a time. Otio researches across all of them at once, with every leading AI model and cited answers.
Cross-document synthesis
Ask one question, get answers synthesised from your entire Dropbox library, with every claim cited to the exact page.
Every AI model in one place
Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok. Switch models mid-session. Compare how each interprets the same Dropbox file.
Cited answers, verify in one click
Every answer traces back to the exact page and passage. Click the citation to jump to the source. No hallucinated references.
Holds more than Dropbox files
Import PDFs from Dropbox. Add articles, YouTube videos, podcasts, CSVs to the same workspace. Query everything together.

Stop stacking subscriptions
Most professionals pay for multiple AI subscriptions because no single tool does it all. Otio consolidates every model into one workspace. Save the $60–80/month on overlapping subscriptions.
Your train of thought stays on the rails
No more copying your prompt, opening a new tab, pasting it into Claude. Ask once. Switch models with one click. Sources, conversation, and citations stay intact.
Model choice matters for research
Claude handles nuanced synthesis. GPT-4 is strong on structured extraction. Gemini processes large contexts efficiently. Pick the right model per task without rebuilding your workspace.
Cited answers you can trust
Every answer traces back to the exact page and passage
ChatGPT invents authors, fake journals, and page numbers that don't match. Otio generates answers only from the material you've uploaded. Every claim cites the exact source. If the answer isn't in your documents, Otio tells you.
Click any citation and jump directly to the source passage. Verify before you write, present, or submit. Lawyers need citations that hold up in discovery. Researchers need references that pass peer review. Otio is built for both.

Testimonials
What professionals say about Otio
@otio is really an excellent tool for understanding my papers. It is just like my personal librarian for the internet!
Feng Chun
Neuroscience PhD
I took a 2 hour YouTube video and had the AI in Otio summarise it. I then asked follow-up questions about the highlighted pieces that got my attention. All told, I was able to collect key takeaways in less than 10 mins. Amazing.
DnA
Researcher
I was fed up fighting with ChatGPT every time I wanted to do a deep dive on a library of research papers I had collected. It's the small things that made me switch - can't recommend it enough.
