OpenAI Dots

OpenAI Dots provides always-on agents inside ChatGPT for people who want ongoing help with projects. A dot can research, produce documents, write code, and continue work between conversations. It uses its own cloud computer and the apps you choose to connect.

Key Highlights

• Continue projects between conversations
• Use a cloud computer and connected apps
• Remember context and learn from feedback
• Run reminders and recurring checks
• Review progress, pause work, and set action rules

What Makes It Different

A dot takes ongoing responsibility for a goal rather than stopping at a single response. It can move several projects forward and return with results or questions. ChatGPT memory gives it starting context, and it develops its own memories through work and connected information.

Features & Capabilities

You can ask a dot to turn interview transcripts into content, update a presentation as evidence changes, or scope, code, and test an app improvement. Its profile separates work into In progress, Scheduled, and Completed, with access to its computer for inspection or takeover.

Local computer access is optional and starts disabled. Connecting it through the ChatGPT desktop app lets a dot work with local files and tools. Custom rules control whether actions need approval or a handoff; a dot can still make mistakes, so important work needs review.

User Ratings and Testimonials

Assess it on a recurring project with clear review criteria. Regional rollout, connected-app permissions, and work allowances affect what it can complete. App access and local computer access are separate controls, and a blocked website can still require a sign-in or human takeover.

Pricing & Value

• Pro and Business Premium: The first dot is included with an allowance for deeper work; limits apply.
• Enterprise, Edu, and Healthcare: Beta access requires a workspace administrator to enable it.

Pro rollout excludes the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK. Business Premium supports all supported ChatGPT regions. Availability is gradual; check the account and plan before relying on access.
