Dust vs Viktor

Dust

• Companies that want agents grounded in internal knowledge
• Teams that mix light and heavy users on different seat types
• Organizations that need US or EU data residency

Viktor

• Teams that already work in Slack or Microsoft Teams
• Recurring reports pulled from ads, billing and CRM tools
• Small companies that want internal tools built without engineers

Dust

• The Free seat is a one-time allowance of 500 credits, not a monthly quota; once it is used, free users are prompted to request an upgrade.
• The self-serve Business plan covers teams of up to 100 and is limited to 3 data source connectors, 5 remote MCP servers and 5 spaces.
• SCIM provisioning, audit logs, custom data retention and single-tenant deployment require Enterprise.
• Monthly credits reset each billing period without rolling over, and listed prices exclude VAT.

Viktor

• Viktor is used through Slack or Microsoft Teams; its site lists no standalone desktop or mobile app.
• The free allowance is a one-time $100 in credits rather than a recurring free plan.
• Everything runs on workspace credits, including scheduled automations, so frequent jobs raise the monthly cost.
• Per-user spend caps, invoicing and custom billing terms are reserved for Enterprise.

Dust

Agents with company context

Agents draw on connected company data from sources such as Slack, Notion, Google Drive, GitHub, Salesforce and Zendesk to answer questions and take action.

Model choice per agent

All plans include 20+ models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral and DeepSeek. The model is chosen per agent, and none is locked to a higher plan.

Schedules and triggers

Multi-agent workflows can run on a schedule or in response to events. Dust also lists Zapier, Make, n8n and Power Automate as supported automation platforms.

Spaces and permissions

Spaces segment data by team, and a two-layer permission model separates what agents can access from who can use them. The Business plan includes 5 spaces.

Frames

Frames turn agent output into interactive dashboards, reports and memos that a team can explore and work on together.

Slack and Chrome extension

Agents can be mentioned in any Slack channel or messaged directly, and a Chrome extension opens them in a sidebar on any web page.

Viktor

Lives in Slack and Microsoft Teams

Installed from the Slack App Directory or Microsoft Teams and addressed in threads and mentions like a colleague, so everyone on the team can work with it.

Connections to 3,200+ tools

27 native integrations with full read and write access, including Stripe, GitHub, Linear and Notion, plus more than 3,200 tools through managed connectors.

Finished deliverables

Queries connected tools, analyzes the data and hands back outputs such as PDFs, spreadsheets, reports and dashboards rather than instructions.

Scheduled tasks

Recurring work, such as a weekly revenue dashboard or a morning metrics summary, runs on a schedule. Scheduled automations use credits each time they run.

Web apps and code

Builds and deploys internal tools as web apps with a database, auth and hosting, and can clone a repository, write a fix on a branch and open a pull request.

Approvals and activity log

Sensitive actions wait for a person's approval before they run, and Viktor posts back what changed, with its activity logged.
