Dust Product update 13
Hi there,
We've made it easier to access your knowledge directly in conversations, added OpenAI and Gemini's latest models, and released a beta version of our Salesforce Connection. We're previewing exciting new tools that expand what your agents can do.
Here's what's new in Dust.
Attach from knowledge in input bar
Connect any document, table, or folder from your knowledge base directly in the input bar through a simple search. You can also paste URLs pointing to specific documents right into your conversations.

✨ Image generation 2.0 with GPT Image model
Generate images with the new gpt-image-1 model by selecting "Image Generation" in your agent's Capabilities section of the builder.
Generate files
Turn conversations into shareable documents with our new File Generation capability. Enable this capability in your agent's tools to generate files directly from your conversations.
OpenAI and Gemini models now available
GPT4.1 (now default for @gpt4), o3 (now default for @o3), o4-mini, o4-mini High Reasoning and Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro are now available in the agent builder.
[Beta] Salesforce Connection
Connect Salesforce to Dust to create agents that query your CRM data in real-time. Available with both service account and personal connection options to match your security requirements.
RevOps teams can build agents that provide account summaries, track sales pipelines, and analyze customer patterns—all powered by your live Salesforce data without the need for manual imports.
Contact us to request beta access.
[Preview] expanding agent capabilities with new tools
We're introducing a suite of new tools leveraging the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that enable deeper integrations and more powerful workflows for your agents:
- Tools were at the core of building Dust agents from the beginning. Now Dust native tools are MCP standardized, and we'll keep creating new tools based on the MCP standard (Github tool available now, image generation (see above) and Hubspot coming soon)
- Builders can connect their own MCP servers to their Dust workspace and use them as agent tools.
Contact us for early access to these preview features and help shape the future of agent capabilities!
Dust is also available as an MCP server through our command line integration. Run a local MCP server connected to your Dust account and use your agents in Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Windsurf. Bring your agents' context and capabilities with you wherever you work.
