Greg Isenberg thinks OpenAI just opened a new distribution layer for AI businesses. after watching DevDay, he says four launches matter most : • 01:48 - Dots: always-on agents that can execute real tasks • 05:02 - Decisions API for agent routing and next-step decisions • 06:43 - Agents API + computer use for multi-agent workflows • 08:01 - Sign in with ChatGPT for lower-friction AI products • 13:46 - The bigger opportunity: Work APIs + agent discovery the interesting shift: Apps → Agents → Agent-Selected Services Dots can operate in the background, use connected tools, and handle multi-step work. OpenAI says Dots are powered by GPT-6 Astra and can work across thousands of applications. the founder alpha is what happens next: build a niche workflow. give the agent a reason to choose you. own the trigger → decision → action → feedback loop. that's where Greg sees the new AI startup opportunity. https://x.com/gregisenberg/status/2105055595124379939/video/1
