Dust

Dust is a platform for building and running AI agents that connect company knowledge, tools and teams. The platform is operated by Permutation Labs in Paris, France, and a Series B of 40 million USD was announced in May 2026. The funding post says the company started about three years earlier.

Users create agents with access to company data through more than 70 connectors such as Slack, Notion, Google Drive, GitHub, Salesforce and Zendesk, and choose among 20+ models from several providers. It offers single-tenant deployment, US or EU data residency, SSO and SCIM provisioning. Customers named on the site include Datadog, 1Password and Vanta.

• Company-context agents: agents that search and act on connected company knowledge.
• Connectors: 70+ integrations including Slack, Notion, Google Drive and Salesforce.
• Model flexibility: 20+ frontier and open-source models from several providers.
• Governance: SSO, SCIM-synced groups, audit logs and data retention controls.
• Chrome extension and Frames: agent access in the browser and shareable visual outputs.
• Developer platform: API for embedding agents in custom workflows.

A fintech or software company in Vietnam can build a support agent over Zendesk tickets and documentation. A sales team can use an agent over Salesforce and internal playbooks for proposal drafting. An HR team can answer policy questions from internal wikis.

Teams can build agents on internal knowledge without code and share them across the company. Model choice avoids lock-in to one provider. The site lists SOC 2 Type II, audit logs and custom data retention policies. The vendor claims 3,000+ organizations and 300,000+ agents deployed.

Companies are shifting from individual chatbots to shared agents that draw on internal knowledge across teams. Multi-model access and governance are becoming purchase criteria. Vietnamese and Southeast Asian firms adopting workplace tools such as Slack, Google Workspace and Notion can apply the same approach to internal assistants.
