Take your design to Dot

Copy your character prompt

Your choices become a visual brief, including fur tuning. Paste it into your Dot conversation and attach the PNG for a closer reference. Review the generated result; available character options may differ.

Create a custom visual character for my Dot using this brief. Keep it simple, rounded and playful in 3D, with soft studio lighting, the entire character visible, a transparent background, and no text, watermark or floor shadow. Keep only the specified body, eyes and accessories. Do not add a mouth, nose, blush, arms, legs or feet. Preserve ears, sprouts or octopus tentacles when part of the selected shape.

Shape: Triangle.
Body color: #F2BF42.
Surface: Short plush (Fuzzy & soft).
Accessories: round glasses and a black bow tie.
Two expressive dark eyes, no lashes.
Fur: short fibers, about 4.0% of the body radius; density 1.00×; fine strands (thickness 35%); tousled (messiness 0.60); curl 92°; downward bend 18% of fiber length; brightness 1.00×; rim lighting 0.85×. Treat these as visual targets.

If I attach a PNG, use it as a visual reference. Show a preview for me to review first. If you support generating a Dot pet or configuring a character, use the available workflow and explain how I can use it in my profile.

The character behind the name

What are OpenAI Dots?

Dots are always-on AI agents in ChatGPT that can keep working between conversations. Their customizable characters give each dot a recognizable face: you can choose its shape, color, eyes, glasses and accessories.

This independent maker explores that playful visual style. Build an original 3D character for an image or a shareable viewer; creating one here does not create a ChatGPT dot or connect to your OpenAI account.

See real generation examples and the sources behind our starting looks before taking your brief to Dot.

Dot avatar maker questions

What can I download?

A 1024 × 1024 transparent PNG with no floor shadow, or an HTML file containing your 3D character. The HTML viewer loads a pinned Three.js renderer from jsDelivr, so it needs an internet connection.

Can this change my avatar in ChatGPT Dots?

This maker does not connect to ChatGPT or update your dot's profile. To change a dot's name or avatar in ChatGPT, open its profile and select the pencil icon. Use OpenAI's own customization options there.
