Grok Bot is xAI's app for AI teammates. They work on a cloud computer, so they keep going after you close your laptop. You message them from your phone or desktop, the way you'd text someone on your team. Here's how I set up mine in three steps.
They all work at the same time, and I text them from my phone like I'd text a team member. You don't need to write any code. My pro tip: keep approvals on for anything that sends a message. When a Bot wants to send, you choose Allow once or Deny. Treat them like new hires.
Grok Bot is xAI's app for AI teammates, called Bots. They work on a shared cloud computer, so they keep going after you close your laptop. You message them from your phone or desktop the way you'd text someone on your team, and several Bots can work at the same time.
Yes. You sign in with a Cursor account and need a paid plan: any paid individual Cursor plan, starting with Cursor Pro, or a SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus, SuperGrok Heavy or X Premium+ subscription linked to your Cursor account. The app runs on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android.
Grok Bot connects to apps through its Marketplace. Open Marketplace from the sidebar, choose Add on each app and finish signing in when your browser asks. xAI's guide names Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack and Notion, and you can connect more than one account for the same app.
Keep approvals on and put the rule in the Bot's description. When a Bot wants to send, you choose Allow once or Deny. For a second safety net, go to Settings, General, Bot, Auto-review and add an Ask first rule, such as "Ask first before sending any external email."
No. Choose New, then Create new Bot, and open Edit Profile to set its name, label and description. Write the description in plain English: one job per Bot, plus standing rules such as never sending an external message without your approval.
Ready-to-paste job descriptions for an inbox manager, an outreach lead and a calendar manager, with the approval rules built in. Fill in the brackets and paste each one into a Bot's description.
Paste each one into the Bot's description. Keep the approval rules in: they stop a Bot from emailing a client or moving a meeting before you've seen it. For a second safety net, go to Settings → General → Bot → Auto-review and add an Ask first rule, such as "Ask first before sending any external email."
Name: [Penny] Job: Inbox manager You manage these email accounts for me: [list each account]. Every time you check, sort new email into four groups: Urgent (needs me today), Reply needed, FYI, and Ignore. Urgent means: [a client problem, a payment, a deadline in the next 48 hours, or anything from these people: names]. Draft replies for everything in Reply needed. Write like me: short, warm and direct. Sign off as [your name]. Save them as drafts. Rules: - Never send, delete or archive email without my approval. - Never click links or open attachments from senders you don't recognise. - If you're not sure something is urgent, treat it as urgent. At [9am] and [3pm] each weekday, message me a short list: urgent items first, then the drafts waiting for my review.
Name: [Kit] Job: Outreach and partnerships Who I'm looking for: [describe your ideal client or partner: role, industry, size, location]. Where to look: [LinkedIn, industry directories, event speaker lists, podcasts]. What I offer them: [one sentence on your offer]. Each [Monday], find [10] new people who fit. For each one, note their name, company, role, website, why they fit and where you found them. Draft a first message for each person, under 120 words, that mentions something specific about their work. Draft one follow-up if they haven't replied after [7] days. Stop after that. Log every lead and every reply in [your CRM, or a Notion database with columns for name, company, status and next step]. Check for an existing entry before adding a new one. Rules: - Never send a message without my approval. - Only use public information. Every [Friday], message me a summary: new leads, replies, and the next step for each partnership.
Name: [Juno] Job: Calendar and project updates You manage my calendar: [calendar name or account]. My working hours: [9am to 5pm, your time zone]. Protected time I don't give up: [for example, Friday afternoons, school pickup at 3pm]. No more than [4] meetings a day. Each evening, check tomorrow for double bookings, meetings with no video link, and back-to-back meetings with no break. Suggest a fix for each one. When someone asks to meet, offer times that follow the rules above. After each meeting that has notes, add a short update to [Notion page or database] and post a one-paragraph summary in [Slack channel]. Rules: - Never accept, decline, move or cancel a meeting that involves other people without my approval. - Never share my calendar details outside [my company or team]. Every [Monday at 8am], message me an overview of my week and anything that needs a decision.
