Dots are powered by OpenAI’s GPT-6 Astra, have their own cloud computer, learn from feedback over time, can work around the clock and can connect to more than 4,000 apps through OpenAI’s ecosystem of plugins, according to the release.
“Your dot is always within reach, whether it is through ChatGPT, Slack or Teams,” OpenAI said in the release. “You can ask questions, explore ideas and give feedback along the way; or you can simply hop on a voice call when you need to talk something out. The more you work together, the more your dot learns your preferences, how you think and what good looks like to you.”

OpenAI began rolling out dots in ChatGPT on Tuesday, starting with Pro and Business Premium users in eligible markets, according to the release. For Pro users, those markets do not include the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, according to another OpenAI article. For Business Premium users, dots are available in all supported ChatGPT regions. In addition, Enterprise users can try the beta when their workplace admin enables it, per the article.
The first dot is available to these users at no extra cost, according to the release. For the next month, dot usage won’t count toward eligible users’ plan allowances, according to the article. After that, OpenAI will share the usage terms for each plan.
“In the future, you’ll be able to add more dots, and scale the output of each dot by either increasing its speed or the total amount of work it can take on per month,” the release said.
OpenAI’s introduction of dots came three weeks after Meta’s launch of its personal AI agent called Muse. Meta said Muse is designed to be simple to use and is “built for everyone.”
Within days of launch, Muse topped the App Store charts.
The launch of dots also came one day after Instinct, the builder of a personal AI agent for everyday life, announced that it raised $1 billion in a Series C funding round that valued the company at $10 billion.
