No outside agent can call it, no status page or security contact was found, and recent updates let some email actions skip approval.\n\n**Dots.** Actions that affect accounts or share information pass an automatic review, and custom rules can require approval or a hand-off. Dots is a beta on Pro plans from $100 a month, and no status page, terms, privacy policy or way to delete individual saved notes was found in the pages we could read.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Del\n\n1. Don't plan to call Del from another agent. It answers only the owner's messaging threads and web workspace.\n2. Tell the owner web browsing tasks are limited to five a month on Standard and unlimited on Pro.\n\n### Dots\n\n1. Say what may be sent. Asking a dot to draft replies does not permit sending them, and an action outside a stated scope needs another decision\n2. Stop three things separately. Pause stops the main task only, delegated tasks stop in Activity and recurring tasks in Scheduled, and completed actions are not undone\n3. Connect each thing separately. A messaging channel grants no access to an inbox, an app or a computer\n4. Sign out of websites and disconnect apps yourself when removing access. Revoking dots access or disconnecting an app does not delete information already obtained\n5. Keep the connected computer online with the ChatGPT app open for local work. Only one personal computer can be connected at a time\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Del or Dots?\n\nDots scores 28.3 (F) on agent readiness against Del's 20.6 (F), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories.
