Dust — Best for specialized AI agents connected to company knowledge
Starting at
$29/mo
Not just a chat interface, Dust is an AI platform purpose-built for team collaboration at scale, with specialized agents, deep company data integration, and multi-model flexibility.
Why Dust Wins
- Model-agnostic prevents vendor lock-in (GPT-5, Sonnet 4.6, Gemini)
- Build domain expert AI agents in minutes without an engineer
- Team collaboration that scales with shared agent instructions
- Agents execute actions across systems via MCP protocol
- 50+ native integrations (Slack, Notion, Salesforce, Zendesk)
- Interactive visualizations—Frames create live dashboards and data views
The Compounding Effect
Dust agents are shared across your team. When one person improves an agent's instructions or adds a new data source, everyone benefits instantly.
Proven Adoption
Companies like Vanta and Persona see 70-90% team usage vs. the 20-40% typically seen with standard enterprise AI platforms.
“Dust is the most impactful software we've adopted since building Clay.”
What is ChatGPT Enterprise?
ChatGPT Enterprise is OpenAI's business version of ChatGPT, designed to deploy AI without compromising security. It gives you access to their most capable models with enterprise-grade admin tools.
But there's a catch: It's fundamentally a single-player tool.
The ChatGPT Approach
- Isolated chat threads for each employee
- Locked into a single AI model (OpenAI only)
- Limited, read-only connections to your data (no fully open MCP integrations)
The Dust Approach
- Shared AI agents acting as team infrastructure
- Model-agnostic (GPT-5, Claude, Gemini)
- Deep, continuous sync with 50+ data sources via MCP
Why teams look for alternatives
ChatGPT Enterprise is fundamentally a single-player tool. It's great for individual productivity, but it doesn't create the compounding effect teams need at scale.
Single-model dependency creates risk
OpenAI-only access means no Claude for coding, no Gemini for Google integration, and vulnerability to one vendor's roadmap.
Limited company data integration
ChatGPT Enterprise lacks deep connectors for critical systems like Salesforce, Zendesk, and Snowflake. Teams often manually upload context instead of working with live, synced knowledge.
No specialized agents or workflows
While basic GPTs exist, teams can't build multi-step workflows, trigger automations, or create department-specific agents that execute actions across systems.
Generic capabilities for all teams
Marketing, sales, engineering, and support need different tools. ChatGPT's general-purpose design doesn't optimize for your team's specific needs, Dust gives teams AI Domain experts trained on your companies data/work.
