What they did

OpenAI's dots launch post mentions an early tester outside the company whose dot, an always-on agent with access to his connected apps, noticed he had forgotten to invoice a publication.

What happened

OpenAI says the dot prepared the invoice and sent it only after he approved it.

Keep in mind

This is a single sentence in a vendor launch post. It gives no detail on which apps were connected, how the dot spotted the gap or how accurate the invoice was, and OpenAI itself advises reviewing consequential work.

Try it with your agent

Each week, compare the work I completed in <your project tracker or calendar> with the invoices in <your invoicing tool>. List any client or job I have not invoiced yet, with the dates and what was delivered. Draft the missing invoices using my usual terms, and wait for my approval before sending any of them.

Replace the <angle brackets> with your own details.
