OpenAI describes it like onboarding a new hire what a dot gets on day one: > its own account with its own permissions > a cloud computer and browser you can open anytime > writes and tests code when the job needs it > 4,000+ apps through plugins > memory that learns your preferences from every edit where it lives: chatgpt on web, phone and desktop, voice calls, text messages, slack, teams. one context across all of them. start in chatgpt, finish over text what actually changed: > it doesn't wait for a prompt. proactive research runs in the background with tools that can't send, edit or touch your browser > it runs several projects at once, no chat-hopping > anything that touches your accounts or shares info gets checked against your rules: allow, ask first, never > it signs in with saved passwords the model never sees password changes always stay with you already happening: an early tester forgot to invoice a publication. the dot noticed, drafted the invoice and sent it after approval the pricing is the part nobody expected: your first dot is included in Pro and Business Premium, and talking to it doesn't count against your ChatGPT limits companies get specialized dots with their own credentials for procurement, invoices, support and contracts. pilots first, Microsoft Agent 365 support in the works one dot today. whole teams of dots later the full 3-page breakdown is below
