Your Dropbox folders, translated in place.

Connect a folder — shared folders too — and every file inside it becomes translatable, Dropbox Paper included. Rush Studio pulls the source in, translates it, and writes the output right back beside it: same folder, format intact, nothing to download or re-upload.

What it does

A Dropbox folder, a project in Rush Studio.

Point us at a folder once. From then on it behaves like any other source — except the files never leave Dropbox.

Connect a whole folder

Pick one folder and every file inside it, across all subfolders, becomes translatable at once.

Two-way sync

Source files flow in; finished translations flow back to the same folder automatically.

Dropbox Paper included

Paper docs are translated alongside your files, not left behind as a special case.

Watches for changes

Drop a new file in a watched folder and it's queued for translation without a click.

Shared folders, not single files

Point at a folder — shared ones too.

No more zipping files or picking them one at a time. Connect a folder — including folders shared into your account — and Rush Studio maps everything inside it into a single project. Add a file next week and it's picked up on the next sync, no setup needed.

Recursive by default
Subfolders come along automatically — the structure is preserved end to end.
Dropbox Paper
Paper documents are pulled in and translated like any other file.
Auto-pickup
New files in a watched folder are queued the moment they land.

Round-trip, not one-way

Translations land right back in Dropbox.

When a translation is approved, Rush Studio writes it straight back into Dropbox next to the source — named by language, in the same folder, in the same format. Your team opens Dropbox and the localized files are simply there. No export, no re-upload, no drift between systems.

Predictable naming
Outputs follow a pattern you set, e.g. filename — de.docx, so they sort cleanly.
Conflict-aware
If a source changes mid-translation, Rush Studio flags it instead of silently overwriting.
Permissions respected
Files inherit the folder's Dropbox sharing — we never widen access.

How it works

Connected in about three minutes.

1

Authorize Dropbox

Sign in with Dropbox OAuth and grant access to the folders you choose — nothing more. Revoke any time from Dropbox or Rush Studio.

2

Pick folders & languages

Choose the folder to watch and the target languages. Set the output naming pattern and where translations should land.

3

Translate & sync back

Files flow into your queue, get translated and reviewed, and the finished versions appear back in Dropbox on their own.

Permissions & security

Scoped access, and nothing you didn't grant.

Rush Studio connects through Dropbox OAuth and only touches the folders you select. Here's exactly what that means.

What we access
The folders you pick. Read source files and write translations back — only inside the folders you connect.
File metadata. Names, types, and modified times, so we know what changed and what to re-sync.
Your Dropbox profile. Name and email, to attribute activity and send sync notifications.
What we never do
Touch other folders. Files outside the folders you connect are invisible to us.
Change sharing. We never widen who can see a file — outputs inherit the source's permissions.
Delete your source. Rush Studio only adds translated files; your originals are never modified or removed.
The details

How the sync behaves.

The fine print teams ask about before they connect a production folder.

Sync direction
Two-way. Source files are read in; approved translations are written back to the same folder.
Sync trigger
New or changed files are detected within minutes of landing in a watched folder. You can also trigger a manual re-sync any time.
Source edits
Editing a source file re-queues just that file. The existing output is updated in place — no duplicate — de copies pile up.
Conflict handling
If someone edits a translated output directly in Dropbox, Rush Studio flags it and asks before overwriting — your manual edits are never silently lost.
Output location
Same folder as the source by default, named filename — [lang].ext. Optionally route outputs to a separate subfolder per language.
Auth & revocation
Dropbox OAuth 2.0. Disconnect from Rush Studio or revoke from your Dropbox account at any time; access stops immediately.
Questions

Dropbox, answered.

Only transiently. Rush Studio reads a file to translate it and writes the result back; we don't keep a permanent copy of your source once a project is delivered.

Yes. Paper documents in a connected folder are pulled in and translated alongside your regular files.

Yes. Folders shared into your account are supported, and outputs inherit the shared folder's membership and permissions.

The connection follows the folder rather than its path, so moving or renaming it in Dropbox won't break the sync.

Yes — that's the point of watching a folder. Any supported file dropped in later is queued automatically on the next sync.

The folder is connected once at the workspace level, so your whole team shares one synced project — no duplicate connections or conflicting outputs.
