Dots
Dots is an AI task automation platform that supports always-on agents, enabling AI agents to remain continuously online, listen for events, and execute tasks autonomously. The platform features cross-session state memory and an event-driven architecture, allowing agents to maintain context and respond to triggers without manual intervention.

Timeline (last 90 days)
OpenAI's Dots emphasizes continuous collaboration.
Dots is deeply integrated with Slack and Microsoft Teams and is suited to team collaboration scenarios.
Grokbot launched in August, Meta released Muse in September, and ChatGPT rolled out Dots a few weeks ago; all major platforms have now made moves into proactive personal assistants.
OpenAI's Dots equips each agent with a cloud computer that conducts proactive research in the background with read-only permissions when no one is using it.
Hosted products are often packaged as subscriptions, using subsidized prices to win user stickiness.
The "closedness" of hosted personal assistants shows up in three places: the model is usually locked to the vendor's own or a partner's model; memory and context are stored on the vendor's servers and are hard to export or migrate; and behavior and the plugin ecosystem are defined by the vendor, so users cannot change the code.
A Reddit user built an open-source messaging layer that lets different users' AI agents communicate directly, supporting assistants such as Claude Code, Grok Bot and Dots.
After launching on Product Hunt, Dots received 82 upvotes and ranked 18th for the week.
Dots supports voice commands, and some operations can be completed without a keyboard or mouse.
Dots has a built-in scrolling screenshot feature that can capture long web pages or long chat histories.
