Dots screenshots: setup and work side by side
Here is the interface behind the launch trailer. The first screen introduces your Dot; the second puts a conversation beside the project it is working on. Less “please paste that into another app,” more “show me the work.”


Try the workflow in the video
Watch how the conversation stays next to the work. Then give your own Dot one recurring assignment: what to check, how often, and what result you want back. Create it on desktop, review its activity, and open its computer to see the work. Setup guide.
