Grok Bot Guide

Grok Bot is xAI’s app for AI teammates, in beta since August 11, 2026. Every bot has a name, a job, and memory, and works on a cloud computer with a browser, files, and a terminal.

Unlike a standard chatbot, it can:

• Sign in to tools you already use
• Work across multiple apps and websites
• Operate the screen like a person when no connector exists
• Keep working while your laptop is closed
• Learn workflows you demonstrate
• Coordinate with other bots
• Request your approval before consequential actions

Grok talks with you. Grok Bot works for you.

Cloud

Your bots’ computer lives in the cloud, so tasks keep going when your device is off

Give it a name and a narrow job description.

One bot with one clear job beats one bot that does everything.

A strong task spans tools and has a clear finish line:

• What to find or do
• Which tools to use
• What to leave out
• What the output should look like
• Where to save it
• When to check with you

Pull this week’s pipeline review list from our CRM. Skip anyone already in an active sequence. Research the top five accounts and draft a personalized email to each. Do not send anything. Put the drafts in one doc for my review.

• Connect a tool only when a task needs it
• Use connectors wherever they exist
• Let the bot drive the screen only for tools without connectors
• Type passwords and two-factor codes yourself, never into the chat
• Sign out of services you stop using

Every bot on your account shares one cloud computer, its files, and its browser sessions. Separate bots do not create separate security boundaries.

Grok Bot sends drafts and voice memos for approval and checks with you before consequential decisions. Always review:

• Emails and messages
• Posts and publishing
• Deletions
• Purchases
• Changes to production systems
• Anything shared beyond your team

Never approve an action if you cannot tell its target or effect.

Auto-review is a separate layer that checks risky actions such as shell commands, plugin calls, and computer use. Add your own rules in Settings → General → Auto-review.

Ask first

Only for actions that send, spend, delete, or publish

Allow automatically

Only for narrow, known, low-risk actions

Keep each rule narrow and tied to one known action. Broad rules strip away the protection.

Run a browser workflow once while the bot watches. It can store the repeatable path as a skill.

Strong first skills:

• Processing invoices from email
• Updating the CRM after calls
• Filing bug reports from a set template
• Preparing the weekly report
• Working through a new hire onboarding checklist

Turn a skill into a scheduled routine:

• Every morning: summarize the new leads
• Every Monday: prepare the pipeline review
• Every Friday: draft the team’s weekly update
• Every month: reconcile the invoices

Review the first few runs closely before you rely on a routine.

Several bots can share a group chat and context, and hand work to one another.

Researcher

Finds and checks information

Writer

Drafts emails, docs, and posts

Operator

Updates tools and records

Coder

Reproduces bugs and drafts fixes

Add a bot only when a real job calls for one. More bots burn through your weekly allowance faster.

• Researching outbound sales and drafting emails
• Updating the CRM and pipeline
• Preparing demo environments
• Reproducing bugs and filing tickets
• Processing email and invoices
• Onboarding new hires

• Bots act as you and can reach only what you can reach
• Give every task the least access it needs
• Keep sensitive files outside the shared workspace
• Pause or delete routines you stop using
• Uninstall plugins you do not need
• Clear old files off the bot computer

• “Research these five companies and write a one-page brief on each, with sources.”
• “Read today’s invoices in my inbox and list them by due date. Do not pay any of them.”
• “Reproduce this bug from the report and file a ticket with steps and screenshots.”
• “Draft this week’s team update using our project board.”
• “Watch me do this task once, then save it as a reusable skill.”
• “Every Monday at 9:00, prepare the pipeline review and send me a message.”
• “Tell me which access you need before you begin.”
• “Show me every action you plan to take before you take it.”

Bots handle

Research, drafting, data entry, routine updates, issue reproduction, and work preparation.

You handle

Access, approvals, sensitive decisions, sending, spending, and final quality checks.
