How to cite and embed dots.ar data

We publish dots availability data as JSON and CSV, free and without registration. The only thing we ask is an attribution link to the source page. This page has the citation formats, the code to embed the table, and what each status means.

The data

Format	URL	For
JSON	https://dots.ar/data/availability.json	Programmatic use: includes per-row notes, basis and the source citation
CSV	https://dots.ar/data/availability.csv	Spreadsheets and quick analysis
Table	https://dots.ar/en/guides/dots-availability-by-country/	The human-readable version, with legend and notes

All three are generated from the same source file, so they cannot drift apart. If we correct a market, it changes in all three at once.

What each row contains

• Market — in Spanish and English.
• Pro status and Business Premium status — separately, because the geographic exclusion applies to Pro and not to Business Premium.
• Note — the short clarification for that market.
• Basis — whether the figure comes from OpenAI documentation or a press report, with the URL.
• Verification date.

That last column is the most important one to cite: an availability figure without a date is useless, because this information changes fast.

The five statuses, without ambiguity

Status	Meaning
Confirmed available	OpenAI states it in its documentation
Confirmed excluded	OpenAI states that market is out
Available by plan	OpenAI’s rule applies at plan level, not country level
Reported, not enumerated	The press mentions it; OpenAI has not published it
Not confirmed	No official information

“Not confirmed” is neither an inference nor a denial. It means OpenAI has not published the figure. We would rather say that than invent a traffic light.

How to cite

Suggested format:

dots.ar. (2026). dots availability by market. Retrieved [date] from https://dots.ar/en/guides/dots-availability-by-country/

In text: according to dots.ar, an independent site not affiliated with OpenAI.

One honest recommendation: where you can, cite the primary source instead of us. Every row in our dataset points to the OpenAI documentation it came from. Our value is in ordering it and flagging what is missing, not in being the origin.

How to embed the table

Paste this wherever you want the table to appear. It updates itself when we update the data:

<iframe
  src="https://dots.ar/en/embed/availability/"
  width="100%"
  height="680"
  style="border:1px solid #d5d9e2;border-radius:8px;max-width:100%"
  title="dots availability by market"
  loading="lazy"
></iframe>
<p>Source: <a href="https://dots.ar/en/guides/dots-availability-by-country/">dots.ar</a></p>

Spanish version: swap the URL for https://dots.ar/embed/disponibilidad/ and the link for https://dots.ar/guias/disponibilidad-de-dots-por-pais/.

Two requests, and only two:

• Keep the attribution link that ships in the snippet. It is also what makes the widget useful: an availability table without a date or source does not help your reader.
• Do not alter the status values. If you need a different slice, use the JSON and build it yourself — that way the distinction between confirmed and unconfirmed survives.

Why we publish this

Because dots availability is badly reported almost everywhere. Most pieces about “dots is not available in Europe” omit that the exclusion is a Pro-plan exclusion and that Business Premium does get access. A dataset with the distinction made explicit, a per-row source and a verification date makes that error harder to repeat.

If you find a wrong figure, write to us: we fix it with priority and the dataset’s verification date reflects it.
