About

OpenAI Dots are always-on AI agents designed to take ownership of ongoing projects and proactively move work forward between conversations. Powered by GPT-6 Astra, each dot can start with context from a user's ChatGPT memory and use Codex, connected applications, and its own cloud computer to complete tasks. Users can assign a dot a responsibility, specify what it should focus on, and determine which applications and information it can access. Dots can identify next steps, monitor changing information, perform work, and bring completed materials or important decisions back to the user for review. They can support workflows such as financial analysis, presentations, sales evaluations, software development, API migrations, content creation, and project monitoring. Users remain in control through configurable permissions, Custom Rules, approval requirements, action reviews, and the ability to redirect or pause a dot at any time.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I’ve just started using Manus, and I’m already impressed by how it handles tasks. It’s an AI agent that doesn’t just assist but delivers results, which makes it feel more like a real assistant. The platform’s ability to analyze data and produce actionable insights is remarkable. For example, when I needed a detailed analysis of a stock, Manus not only delivered the data but presented it in a visually appealing dashboard. It’s also great for managing research tasks, such as comparing insurance policies or creating custom travel itineraries.

Cons

  • While Manus is powerful, it does take a little time to fully understand all of its capabilities. The interface, while clean, can feel overwhelming at first because there are so many features to explore. I also wish there were more straightforward tutorials for beginners, though the support team is very responsive and helpful.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • What I like most is that it feels less like “using AI” and more like delegating work. I can give a Dot an ongoing objective, let it work across apps and the web, and have it come back when it needs input instead of babysitting every step. The always-on part is the biggest difference. Recurring research, follow-ups, monitoring, admin work, and multi-step workflows make a lot more sense when the agent can keep working after I leave the chat. I also like that each Dot gets its own cloud computer and browser. That gives it a much more complete working environment than a normal chatbot, especially when a task involves websites, files, tools, and multiple systems.

Cons

  • The downside is that something this capable needs careful permissions. I would be conservative about local computer access, sensitive accounts, external messages, and anything destructive until I was comfortable with the rules and approval flow.
