Dust —Transform how work gets done. Just use Dust.

Dust envisions a future where enterprise workflows are revolutionized by embedding AI deeply within company data and processes, creating an AI operating system that acts as a central hub for intelligent, automated work. We believe that AI agents should start with intimate knowledge of a company's unique context, empowering teams from day one to work smarter and faster.

Our platform unlocks the power of customizable AI assistants that seamlessly integrate with internal tools and data, transforming how organizations manage information, collaborate, and make decisions. By connecting AI models directly to real company data, Dust is reshaping enterprise productivity and enabling a new era of intelligent automation.

We are committed to building universal AI primitives for business, elevating enterprise intelligence through innovation in no-code agent creation, data security, and AI scalability. Dust is pioneering a foundational technology to accelerate how companies harness AI to unlock potential and drive meaningful impact.

We've been watching the AI assistant space explode over the past year, and frankly, most solutions feel like fancy chatbots with a fresh coat of paint. That's what made Dust immediately interesting to us — it's not trying to be another ChatGPT wrapper.

Instead, the French-founded company tackles something much trickier: building AI agents that actually know your business from day one. While everyone else starts with zero knowledge of your company, Dust connects directly to your Slack channels, Google Drive, Notion pages, and GitHub repos to create assistants that understand your specific context.

What Makes It Click

The no-code approach really impressed us here. We've seen too many AI platforms that require a computer science degree just to set up a basic workflow. Dust flips that script entirely — you can spin up specialized AI assistants for different teams without writing a single line of code.

What's clever is how they've structured the whole thing around multiple assistants rather than one do-everything bot. Your HR team gets their own AI that knows your policies inside and out, while your support team gets one that understands your product documentation. It's like having a specialist for every department.

The Real-World Impact

We particularly liked seeing concrete examples of what these agents actually do beyond the usual "automate everything" promises. Contract reviews, SQL query generation, meeting summaries that don't sound like robot gibberish — these are tasks that eat up real hours in real companies.

The recent addition of agent memory caught our attention too. This addresses one of our biggest frustrations with AI tools: constantly having to re-explain context. Now these assistants actually remember your previous conversations and company-specific preferences.

Who Should Pay Attention

This isn't a tool for solo entrepreneurs or tiny startups — Dust clearly has its sights set on enterprises with complex data needs and multiple departments. If you're dealing with information scattered across a dozen different platforms and struggling to keep teams aligned, that's where Dust shines.

The $16 million Series A from Sequoia Capital tells us we're not the only ones betting on this approach. It feels like Dust is positioning itself to be the Windows of enterprise AI — creating those "universal primitives" that make intelligent workflows standard across business operations.
