Your Dropbox folders, translated in place.

Connect a folder — shared folders too — and every file in it becomes translatable, Dropbox Paper documents included. Rush Studio imports the source, translates it and writes the result right alongside: same folder, formatting intact, nothing to download or re-import.

What it does

One Dropbox folder, one project in Rush Studio.

Point us to a folder once. After that it behaves like any other source — except the files never leave Dropbox.

Connect a whole folder

Pick a folder and every file in it, across all subfolders, becomes translatable at once.

Two-way sync

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

Dropbox Paper included

Paper documents are translated with your files, not left aside as a special case.

Watches for changes

Drop a new file into a watched folder and it is queued for translation, no click required.

Shared folders, not lone files

Point at a folder — shared ones too.

No more zipping files or picking them one by one. Connect a folder — including ones shared with you — and Rush Studio maps everything in it into a single project. Add a file next week and it is picked up on the next sync, with no setup.

Recursive by default
Subfolders follow automatically — the structure is preserved end to end.

Round-trip, not one-way

Translations come straight back to Dropbox.

When a translation is approved, Rush Studio writes it straight back to 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-import, no gap between systems.

Predictable naming
Outputs follow a pattern you define, e.g. file — de.docx, for clean sorting.
Conflict-aware
If a source changes mid-translation, Rush Studio flags it instead of overwriting silently.
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 & re-sync

Files enter your queue, get translated and reviewed, and the final versions reappear in Dropbox on their own.

Permissions & security

Scoped access, and nothing you did not grant.

Rush Studio connects via Dropbox OAuth and only touches the folders you select. Here is exactly what that means.

What we access
The folders you choose. Read source files and write back translations — only in the folders you connect.
File metadata. Names, types and modified dates, to 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 permissions.
Delete your source. Rush Studio only adds translated files; your originals are never modified or deleted.
The details

How the sync behaves.

The specifics teams ask about before connecting a production folder.

Sync direction
Two-way. Source files are read; approved translations are written back to the same folder.
Sync trigger
New or changed files are detected within minutes of arriving in a watched folder. You can also run a manual re-sync any time.
Source changes
Editing a source file re-queues just that file. The existing output is updated in place — without duplicate "— de" copies piling up.
Conflict handling
If someone edits a translation directly in Dropbox, Rush Studio flags it and asks before overwriting — your manual edits are never lost silently.
Output location
The same folder as the source by default, named file — [language].ext. Optionally route outputs to a separate subfolder per language.
Authentication & revocation
Dropbox OAuth 2.0. Disconnect from Rush Studio or revoke from your Dropbox account any time; access stops immediately.
Questions

Dropbox, in plain terms.

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

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

Yes. Folders shared with you are supported, and outputs inherit the shared folder's ownership and permissions.

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

Yes — that is the whole 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 a single synced project — no duplicate connections or conflicting outputs.
