| What it is | An ongoing hosted agent with a cloud computer, connected apps and context across projects in ChatGPT. | Persistent named agents with role context, background work and repeatable routines on a shared cloud computer. |
|---|
| Can I use it? · documented | Gradual Pro rollout: 18+, outside the EEA, Switzerland and UK. Business Premium has regional and workspace conditions; Enterprise, Edu and Healthcare beta needs admin enablement. Check your account. | Included on X Subscription Premium, Super and Ultra. Paid legacy Cursor/Teams and qualifying linked SuperGrok/X Premium+ accounts have other routes. Enterprise arrangements differ. |
|---|
| Where work runs · documented | Own cloud computer. Local-computer connection is optional and initially off; that machine must stay online with the app open. Cloud and local browser sessions are separate. | Persistent cloud computer shared across the account's Bots. Optional Mac/Windows local command execution has its own permission policy; local execution does not imply local model processing. |
|---|
| How usage is paid for · documented | First dot included in Pro and Business Premium with a deeper-work allowance. Temporary launch limits can change; included access is not unlimited work. | Current X Subscription shares a weekly pool with Cursor and Grok, with prepaid top-ups. Legacy plans use Bot grants and optional Cursor-billed on-demand usage; linked grants do not stack. |
|---|
| What keeps running · documented | Projects, schedules and proactive research. Unprompted research tools are read-only: they cannot send, edit apps or control computers. Authorized continuing tasks follow normal action rules. | Background work, scheduled routines, supported event triggers and handoffs between Bots. Verify that a specific connector supports the action your routine needs. |
|---|
| Browser and computer tools · documented | Cloud browser, connected apps and a computer you can inspect or take over; optional local connection and Codex environments. Some websites block automated access. | Browser, files, terminal, connected apps and human takeover. Optional local execution defaults to asking; websites can still block automated access. |
|---|
| What it remembers · documented | ChatGPT context plus the dot's own retained context. Turning off sharing or disconnecting an app does not delete information already learned. | Per-Bot preferences, roles and conversation summaries. Working files, browser sessions and logins remain shared across the account. |
|---|
| Approvals and data boundaries · documented | Custom Rules and Auto-review, with core safeguards and user-only sensitive steps. Business, Enterprise and Edu data is not used for training by default; personal-plan controls apply. | Auto Review and action rules; local policy defaults to asking. Requires storage, does not support Legacy Privacy Mode, and uses applicable Cursor training opt-out settings. |
|---|
| Decision-changing limits · documented | Access restrictions, sign-in and approval stops can decide fit. Specialist organizational dots are a preview, not a feature available to every subscriber. | Shared account state is not a per-Bot security boundary. Some unattended approval requests expire after about ten minutes without running; an unanswered request is not completed work. |
