What Grok Bot can do

Grok Bot gives each job its own Bot: a named worker with standing rules it remembers, the apps it may use, and routines that run on a schedule.

Set up one Bot per job, connect only the apps that job needs, and check its routine on the Bot’s Details tab.

  • Bots

    Create a Bot for one job, tell it lasting rules to remember and work with it in one conversation.

    Example: A Bot that sorts your inbox each morning and drafts replies.

  • Routines

    Ask a Bot to run a task on a schedule. Routines run in the background, even while your laptop is closed, and When to run shows each schedule in words. A Bot can own up to 50.

    Example: Every Monday at 9:00, list the quotes that got no reply.

  • Apps and browser

    Connect Gmail, Google Calendar, Drive, Sheets, Slack, Notion and more, and let the Bot read web pages with a browser on its own cloud computer.

    Example: Check tomorrow's meetings and find the related email threads.

Get started with Grok Bot

  1. Check that you qualify: Premium, Super or Ultra on The X Subscription, a paid individual Cursor plan or Cursor Teams on a legacy Cursor plan, a linked SuperGrok or X Premium+ subscription, or a Grok Business seat, on an account that does not use Privacy Mode (Legacy).
  2. Download Grok Bot from x.ai/bot, choose Sign in and finish signing in through your browser.
  3. Choose New Bot (the + button) at the top of the sidebar and name it after its job. In its chat, send lasting rules, such as never send email without approval, and ask it to remember them.
  4. Choose Connect apps and add only the apps your task needs, such as Gmail. Pick a recipe below, copy its setup prompt and send it to your Bot.
  5. For a schedule, click the Bot's name at the top of the chat, open the Details tab and select the routine: check When to run and that it isn't Paused. Routines use the Timezone set under Bot in Settings.

What to check before you trust it

  • Start read-only: ask for lists and draft text in the conversation before you let the Bot change anything.
  • Test with the recipe's fictional sample before you connect real accounts.
  • Grok Bot's docs describe no read-only mode. Connect only the apps a task needs and choose Deny for any approval the task does not need.
  • Approvals requested during a routine expire after 30 minutes, so keep sending and changes for times you are watching.
  • Choosing Test on a routine does real work with your connected apps. Use safe inputs.

We have not run these setups ourselves. Recipes are written from public Grok Bot documentation, and their examples are illustrative.

Questions about Grok Bot

Is Grok Bot free?
No. Grok Bot comes with Premium, Super or Ultra on The X Subscription, and on a legacy Cursor plan with every paid individual plan and Cursor Teams. You can also link a SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus, SuperGrok Heavy or X Premium+ subscription, or use a seat on a self-serve Grok Business plan. Usage counts toward your plan.
Does Grok Bot keep working when my laptop is closed?
Yes. Routines run in the background on the Bot's cloud computer. After a long absence Grok Bot may ask whether to keep routines running and pause them if you do not answer.
Can Grok Bot send emails without asking?
Its Gmail app can draft and send mail, but by default a Bot shows outgoing email as a draft for you to review and send, unless you choose Disable drafts for Bot. When it asks for approval, you choose Allow once, Always allow or Deny, and Ask first rules always stop matching actions. The recipes here tell the Bot to prepare drafts, not to send.
Which apps can Grok Bot connect to?
Gmail, Google Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets and Slides, Outlook, Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint, Slack, Notion, Asana, Zoom, 1Password, X and more, plus an email address of its own. App access is shared by every Bot on your account.
Can I share a Grok Bot with someone?
Yes. Click the Bot's name at the top of the chat, choose Share, then Create a copy. On the template card the Bot posts, choose Publish, then Copy link. People who open the link choose Add to Grok Bot and get their own copy, without your computer, logins or conversation history.
