Google Workspace add-on

Drop a file on a cell. It lands in Drive and links back.

FileDrop works inside Google Sheets, Docs and Slides. One gesture, and the document is filed, linked and sitting on the row it belongs to. Here is what twelve kinds of team keep in their cells.

The whole gesture

Three things happen, in this order

Drag the file onto a cell

Any file, from your desktop into Sheets, Docs or Slides. No upload dialog, no tab switching.

It saves to Google Drive

The file lands in the Drive folder you picked, named and filed where the rest of your work already lives.

The cell holds the link

What stays behind is a clickable link in the cell, so the row and its document never drift apart.

By industry

What lands in the cell, and who puts it there

The gesture is the same everywhere. Only the document changes.

Accounting & Finance

Add invoices, receipts and payslips

Drop financial documents straight into the cell that tracks them. Expense records and payroll stay attached to the row they belong to.

Legal

Access court records

Build a sheet of court records that open in one click, so case research stops depending on folder archaeology.

Human Resources

Add candidate resumes

Keep every applicant CV on the row for that applicant. The shortlist and the documents stop living in two different places.

Purchasing & Procurement

Attach vendor quotes

Attach each vendor quote to its own cell. Comparing three suppliers becomes reading across one row.

Photography & Design

Deliver photos and collect feedback

Deliver finished work through a Drive folder and gather approvals beside it, without a separate proofing tool.

Database Management

Extract text and fill records

Link receipts to a P&L summary and pull plain text out of PDFs to populate the rest of the row.

Document Management

Attach PDFs to events

Give every event a row and hang all its paperwork off that row: agendas, contracts, floor plans.

Film & TV Production

Track graphics and thumbnails

Track graphics in running order and place thumbnails directly in the sheet, for post-production and network deliverables.

Manufacturing

Add specs and quality reports

Attach specifications, blueprints and quality reports to the part they describe, so the sheet is the single source of truth.

Sales & Marketing

Share images from Google Drive

Share product shots and campaign assets from the sheet the team already opens, instead of a link buried in a thread.

Invoice Approvals

Streamline invoice approvals

Route approvals with the invoice linked in the row, at a fraction of the cost of a dedicated approvals product.
