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**Tab.** Tab is a private-beta texting assistant with a detailed security page on credential isolation and checkout binding, and a public updates page. No outside agent can call it, no price is published, and its privacy policy says nothing on training with user content.\n\n## Before you call either\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### Tab\n\n1. Don't plan to call Tab from another agent. It answers only the owner's Messages or WhatsApp thread.\n2. Tell the owner that access needs a waitlist place and no price is published.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Dots or Tab?\n\nDots scores 28.3 (F) on agent readiness against Tab's 10.7 (F), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories.
