BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front): Dots are artificial intelligence agents that work continuously to perform tasks and monitor projects. Unlike chatbots, which only respond to commands, agents can act in the background, learn preferences and take on activities that involve multiple steps.

The tool is part of an expanding trend in AI agents. With their own computers in the cloud, browsers and access to connected applications, dots can search information, organize workflows and develop complete projects.

The feature can be used by common users and companies. Its proposal is to delegate recurring activities and complex work to agents, who are capable of monitoring the needs of each person or team.

Is there a way to set limits for dots?

Dots are artificial intelligence agents that remain active and take on tasks continuously. Each agent has its own computer in the cloud and an integrated browser, in addition to being able to switch between the advanced GPT-6 Astra and GPT-6.1 Terra models, according to the needs of each stage of the work.

Over time, dots can learn what information is important to the user, identify their preferences, and use that context in future activities. For this, there are two types of agents:

Individual Dot: works as a personal assistant that follows the user’s goals and preferences. With access to ChatGPT memories, you can help with code review, content production, tracking sales metrics and researching scientific articles.

Specialist Dots: are focused on the corporate environment and have their own identity, permissions and resources. Businesses can set up agents for specific activities, such as purchasing, invoice processing, email marketing, customer service, and business contracting. They can also be integrated with enterprise platforms such as Microsoft Agent 365.
