Use Case What are some simple things you've got GrokBot to do that you think others should try?

11 Upvotes

I'm a noob at this, but I've actually got it to do some pretty cool things. I'm wondering what you guys have done that I should try too.

- Got it to search for car insurance quotes; I only gave it a few pieces of info and it went to all the sites and filled in the endless forms for me.

- Grok automatically takes my LinkedIn posts and posts them to X, finding the photo or video on my desktop and ads a link to the LinkedIn post.

- Found all the best videos of how to use GrokBot and created a YouTube playlist of them under my account.

- Filled out a spreadsheet from info collated all over Gmail, Facebook, and WhatsApp and updated it regularly.

- Built an outreach target list on LinkedIn and connected with a personalised message.

Looking for more ideas. So what are some of the simple things you guys have done?

Bug / Issue Anyone having problems with Grok Bots remembering to run their routines?

7 Upvotes

This is mainly for software engineering related workflows. I have 3 routines which run overnight - planning, delivery, review etc. All spaced out at sensible intervals so no risk of one not finishing before the next starts. But I'll wake up to missing results - and when I ask the agent I will get a response something like: "Routines X Y Z didn't run. Would you like me to run them now?"

Anyone else encountering something similar?

This is happening regularly enough that it is unfortunately eroding my enthusiasm for Grok Bot.

Question Grokbot having trouble logging into websites - anyone else finding this?

4 Upvotes

I tried logging into some websites like Facebook, but I can't get past the captcha. Tried a dozen times, but I'm caught in a loop.

I tried logging into Reddit so it could post for me. I'm sure that the password is correct, but it's saying "incorrect" and won't log in.

I'm really liking GrokBot, but it's kind of useless if I can't get into the sites I use all the time. Is anyone else finding the same?

Is there any solution here?

Discussion Made GrokHub — a Grok Bot directory your bot can subscribe to (not just browse)

4 Upvotes

Saw the directory post here and loved the idea, but noticed people asking how to keep it updated without manually re-checking the site.

So I built GrokHub (https://grokhub.io) around that: a directory of Grok Bot use cases, plugins, guides, and templates but every listing is also exposed via /feed, /mcp and its own template, so your bot can subscribe instead of scraping. Submissions are open, reviewed before going live.

Curious what people think of this?

Discussion Allowed to use Claude Code with Grok Bot?

7 Upvotes

Specifically: does anyone know if I will get in trouble with Anthropic having Grok Bot run Claude Code CLI sessions on that remote Linux machine?

I know that people got banned using OpenClaw but I think that was different as people were using their Claude subs as the agent itself, but I haven’t looked into the nuance.

Discussion Trading Stocks/coins

Hello - I’ve been using grok bot to paper trade coins and well the usage is the down side as I have bots scanning coins through an API every day. I’m curious has anyone made a profit or any money using grok bot? I haven’t had luck, but they work well I think they’re too disciplined lol. I know coins are probably not the best to start.

Discussion Getting more usage (currently on Cursor Ultra)

6 Upvotes

Ok so, I currently have been playing with Grok Bot and like some here, have found it incredibly useful for my workflow. I have about 15 bots (virtual employees) working in harmony now off the back of my Cursor Ultra plan. I am finding were blowing through our weekly usage in about 3 days however (no computer use as everything is API/etc to save on usage costs, but were still smashing usage due to our field of work).

Does anyone know how we can extend this? Happy to sign onto a bigger plan etc as we use Cursor a LOT for dev work in our business so this is an expense we are already absorbing. Grob Bots were just extra value we are extrapolating and now we love it and are getting real productive value from it. Now we just want to increase that usage!

Setup Limits for Grokbot Set-Ups?

10 Upvotes

I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong, but I just got a supergrok subscription because I was intrigued by the capacity of using a VM for GrokBot.

However, after spending a couple of hours testing it out and trying to set up my workflows, I reached the limit for the week already!

Has anybody else encountered this issue? Am I doing my set up wrong? Any guidance on how we can optimize and test our set ups without hitting limits?

Discussion Goodbye Grok Bot

4 Upvotes

I’ve been using Grok Bot since day one, and I genuinely love it. Of all the agent setups I’ve tried, including my own OpenClaw and Hermes setups, Grok Bot has been my favorite.

The problem is the cost.

I was burning through my weekly included credits in about two days, then moving into on-demand usage. I ended up spending over $4,000 on additional usage. As much as I love Grok Bot, that just isn’t sustainable.
So I finally went looking for an alternative and found GrokOpenMausBot.

It’s definitely not as polished as Grok Bot yet, but I’ve been really impressed with how well it works. The overall experience is very similar, and it gives me a lot more control.

I can choose whatever model I want for each individual bot. The VM runs on my own server, so I control the infrastructure. I can use cheaper models for routine bots and save the more expensive models for the bots that actually need them.

The iOS app is also working great, which was important to me.

This isn’t meant as criticism of Grok Bot. I still think it’s fantastic, and if the economics worked for my level of usage, I would happily keep using it.

But after running through my weekly credits in two days and spending more than $4,000 on on-demand usage, I finally had to find another solution.

GrokOpenMausBot is not quite as polished yet, but it gives me most of what I loved about Grok Bot while letting me run it myself and control which models I’m paying for.

For anyone else who loves Grok Bot but is struggling with the usage costs, it’s definitely worth checking out.

Guide Improving Grok Bot's Shopping Abilities

10 Upvotes

I'm a big fan of agentic shopping and have been getting Grok Bot to keep an eye out for deals on consumables for me regularly.

Out of the box, it will do all the shopping using computer use and navigating a browser and does not seem to use agentic protocols like UCP or look for llms.txt.

I've packaged up my setup here which does the following:

  • Installs keytar and Shopify's Shop CLI and guides you to turn on agentic shopping via the Shop CLI if you desire.
  • Asks if you want to install the Link CLI to enable Stripe agentic shopping (US only).
  • Adds detection of Stripe's Onelink in browser and can read OTPs from iMessage if you have it configured.
  • Adds a skill that makes it easier for Grok Bot to try discount codes on Shopify stores.
  • Asks if you want to setup a "Buyer" bot with instructions on how to shop.
  • Normalises the output of products Grok Bot finds so the title, price, description, and image is presented.
  • Uses Grok Bot's widgets to ask which product you're interested in or if you want to continue rather than you having to type.
  • Uses UCP to assemble carts and checkout where possible.

You can install this by just giving this line to Grok Bot and it should do the rest for you:

Install Grok Bot shopping from https://github.com/steve228uk/grok-bot-shopping

Follow INSTALL.md.

Question How do you use Grok Bot for serious QA testing?

How are you using Grok Bot for real QA testing? I want it doing intensive, actually good testing not just clicking around.

What worked? Skills, setup, whatever made it find real bugs.
