On 29 September 2026 OpenAI launched Dots: one always-on agent inside ChatGPT, included with a $200 Pro plan. Geta.Team gives you as many AI employees as you need, on the ChatGPT or Claude subscription you already pay for, in Europe or the US, on a server that is only yours.
$200/month. Not offered to Pro users in the EEA, UK or Switzerland.
As many AI employees as you need, each with its own role, memory, email, phone line, video face and model. From $149/month on your own subscription.
Both products agree on the idea: an AI that keeps working after you close the tab. They disagree on how many you get, who picks the model, where it runs and who can use it.
Run many AI employees on a single ChatGPT or Claude subscription you already have. Sales, support, finance and legal side by side.
Managed in Nuremberg and Paris, or on your own servers. GDPR with DPA, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001.
Claude, GPT, Gemini, any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or Ollama on your own GPUs. Change it any time.
Every workspace runs on its own dedicated, isolated server. Or run the whole platform on-premise, even air-gapped.
Everything below is live in Geta.Team today, documented at docs.geta.team and in our changelog, the latest release on 29 September 2026. None of it appears in OpenAI's launch material for Dots.

If you want one personal assistant inside the ChatGPT app you already live in, and you are outside Europe, Dots is worth a look.
