Getting started
Four downs to go from zero to a bot that's pulling its weight.
Draft your bot
Create a bot and give it a name and a job. A clear role helps it make better calls.
Call the first play
Chat with it in plain language. Ask for something small first to see how it works.
Connect your gear
Add connectors for services like Gmail or OneDrive so your bot can work with your real stuff.
Set the schedule
Turn recurring work into routines that run on a schedule, so the bot shows up on time.
What bots can do
The core plays in a Grok Bot's book.
💬 Chat & delegate
Hand off tasks in conversation: summaries, drafts, research and planning.
🔌 Use connectors
Work with services you connect, like your email and files, within the access you grant.
⏱️ Run routines
Run scheduled routines for recurring work, like regular check-ins or digests.
🖥️ Own computer & browser
Use their own computer to run code, build files and browse the web.
🧠 Remember preferences
Keep your preferences in mind so you don't have to repeat yourself every game.
🤝 Teammate bots
Work alongside other bots, so each one can focus on its own position.
Tips from the sideline
Small habits that make a big difference.
Be specific
Say what "done" looks like: the format, the audience, the deadline.
Start small
Run a short play first, then build up to bigger, multi-step tasks.
Review before it ships
For anything you send or share, look at the draft and approve it yourself.
Grant only what's needed
Connect the services a bot actually uses for its job, and nothing more.
Tell it your preferences
Share how you like things done once, so it can remember them.
Give each bot a position
Focused bots with clear roles are easier to direct than one bot doing everything.
