Is ChatGPT's dots available in Europe?

Partly. OpenAI's dots leave out Pro users in the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK. In Europe they come only with Business Premium, or as a beta an Enterprise admin switches on.

ChatGPT and dots and Chat with Work, side by side
Dimension	ChatGPT and dots	Chat with Work
What it is	A general AI assistant. dots (September 29, 2026) are always-on agents, each with its own cloud computer and browser, that reply in ChatGPT, Slack, or Teams.	AI bots and an assistant for your team's tools, as a service or on your own servers.
Available in Europe	dots skip Pro in the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK "for now"; Business Premium gets them across supported regions, and Enterprise when an admin turns on the beta.	Yes, on every plan, Free included.
Where your data and the models are	Eligible Enterprise, Edu, and API customers can store data in Europe, and eligible Enterprise and Edu customers can keep inference there too, with unsupported features turned off. Sources disagree on Business. OpenAI says nothing on where dots run.	The app on our servers in Germany, and GPT, Gemini, Claude, and Qwen, all in the EU. Web search, off by default, leaves the EU. Or on your own servers.
Before it changes anything	An auto-review system checks consequential actions against your instructions and rules, and decides whether to go ahead or ask. Custom Rules can allow, require approval for, or prohibit an action.	Integrations start at Read. Changes ask first, shown as they will run, unless you let a bot's changes run; deleting asks unless you allow that one tool.
Self-hosting	No.	Yes. Ask about self-hosting.
Price	The first dot is included in Pro and Business Premium. OpenAI hasn't published allowances or the price of more.	Free to start. From €20 a month for one person, and from €25 per person for teams plus VAT.
