About Box, Inc.
About Box, Inc.
Box serves over 100,000 paying organizations across 25 languages with a cloud-based content management platform that integrates storage, collaboration, e-signature, governance, and AI capabilities. The net retention rate reached approximately 104% as of January 31, 2026, up from 102% the prior year. No single customer represented 10% or more of revenue in fiscal 2026, reflecting broad customer diversification.
Box earns revenue from SaaS subscriptions recognized ratably over contract terms of one month to three years or more, targeting enterprise and highly-regulated customers in life sciences, financial services, retail, and public sectors. Sales reach customers through a high-touch direct salesforce, a self-service online platform, value-added resellers, and systems integrators. The company competes primarily against Microsoft (SharePoint and OneDrive), OpenText (Documentum), and Google (Drive) in enterprise content management and file sync, with those competitors holding greater resources and the ability to bundle content management into broader enterprise license agreements at lower marginal cost. Box has built integrations with AI model providers including Microsoft Azure OpenAI, Google Cloud Vertex AI, Anthropic Claude, and Amazon Titan via Amazon Bedrock, allowing customers to query and process content using large language models—though competitors may incorporate AI capabilities more efficiently or achieve faster adoption, which could weigh on demand for Box offerings.
Show full overview
Box faces a layered and rapidly evolving AI regulatory environment. The EU AI Act, adopted by the European Council in May 2024, imposes significant obligations on AI system use, with member-state implementation expected to generate additional compliance requirements. At the U.S. state level, the 10-K names eight states—including California, Colorado, Illinois, and Texas—as having enacted AI-specific legislation. The Trump administration's January 2025 executive order rescinding the prior Biden AI order, and the July 2025 federal AI Action Plan, introduce policy uncertainty that the filing acknowledges may present either opportunities or additional risks to Box depending on how AI regulation continues to evolve.
