Smartsheet is a robust collaboration and work management platform utilized by millions globally. However, as your Smartsheet workspace expands, locating specific information can become more challenging.

Many Smartsheet users face common frustrations when trying to locate information:

  1. Limited search functionality: Smartsheet’s native search function can be basic, making it difficult to find specific data across multiple sheets and workspaces.
  2. Time-consuming manual searches: Users often need to open multiple sheets and scan through rows of data to find what they’re looking for.
  3. Disconnected information: Important context may be spread across different sheets, reports, and attachments, making it hard to get a complete picture.
  4. Lack of natural language understanding: Traditional search methods don’t always interpret the intent behind a user’s query.

This is where Dashworks AI steps in, providing a groundbreaking approach to searching and retrieving data from Smartsheet and other work applications. Dashworks AI addresses these pain points by providing an intelligent search and question-answering system that works seamlessly with Smartsheet and other work applications.
