Progress has officially launched a suite of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) tools within its ShareFile® platform, revolutionizing document collaboration and business productivity.
As organizations continue to seek digital solutions to streamline operations, Progress (Nasdaq: PRGS) responds with purpose-built AI capabilities integrated directly into ShareFile, its cloud-native document management platform. These new features are crafted to enhance security, accelerate document workflows, and minimize manual intervention—maximizing output with existing resources.
AI That Works Smarter—Not Harder
The AI-powered upgrades are engineered to automate routine processes while keeping human connections at the core of business. Unlike generic automation tools, ShareFile’s enhancements are tailored to document-heavy workflows, allowing teams to focus more on strategic and relationship-building tasks.
In fact, early adopters report collecting documents nearly 3.5x faster and retrieving relevant information up to 96% quicker thanks to AI-driven summarization and smart Q&A capabilities.
Key AI Features Transforming ShareFile
- Smart Data Protection: The platform’s secure share recommender automates optimal sharing settings to prevent accidental exposure of sensitive data, particularly Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
- Instant Document Insights: AI-powered summarization and Q&A tools analyze dense documents in real-time, turning pages of information into actionable insights with just a click or query.
- Frictionless Document Requests: Generative AI now powers automatic creation of document request lists—eliminating Excel-based processes and enabling businesses to scale collection 3.5x faster.
“ShareFile’s AI features have completely transformed how we process client documents,” shared Paul Nylen, Partner at Nylen & Partners. “Instead of spending hours dissecting 200-page tax returns, we extract key information in minutes—freeing up our team to focus on high-impact work.”
Embedding AI into the Heart of Business Operations
Beyond efficiency, ShareFile’s AI enhancements aim to drive long-term value by embedding intelligent automation into everyday business processes. From customizable templates to end-to-end secure workflows, the platform now serves as a vital tool for forward-thinking enterprises.
This aligns with broader industry shifts, as companies increasingly embrace AI to optimize front-office operations. In fact, such advancements echo the momentum behind AI integration in supply chains, where automation plays a critical role in adapting to economic uncertainty and global disruption.
With ShareFile’s latest AI rollout, Progress not only strengthens its position in the SaaS collaboration space but also sets a new standard for how AI can be meaningfully applied to enhance security, elevate customer service, and unlock business growth.
