Grok Bot Just Got 70% Cheaper... (I Switched)
765 segments
This might be controversial, but I was
completely wrong about Grockbot. I've
been using it every single day since it
released about 12 days ago, and my view
on it has completely flipped. On top of
that, it just got 70% cheaper to use
today, and you could try it out for
free. So, in this video, I'm going to go
over real life ways that I'm using this,
what I like about it compared to other
AI agents like Claude Co-work, and I'm
even going to give you tactical things
that can give it superpowers that most
people don't know about. So, by the end
of this video, you'll understand if
Grockbot is right for you. Let's dive
in. Now, first of all, we have some
great news. If you've been wanting to
try out Grockbot, but you didn't because
it was too expensive. They just made it
accessible to some of the cheaper plans.
So, let me go over how you could use
this right now and how much you need to
pay in order to do so. Now, here's the
important part. I do want to point out
that they're offering a free trial with
limited usage for all other users. So,
this probably won't get you too far, but
it will at least give you the ability to
test this out yourself and see what it's
capable of. If we take a look at pricing
right here, we could be on the cursor
pro plan for $60 per month. And with
this, we get access to Grockbot. Before
today, we would have to pay $200 per
month, which is extremely steep for
people to go and try this out. So, I
really do think this price change is
going to make it much more accessible
for everyday people to begin using this.
Now, if you still don't want to fork out
$60 per month, make sure to stay to the
end of this video because I'm going to
go over everything that Grockbot is
capable of. So, you don't have to guess
on whether or not this is going to be
worth it for you or not. Now, with
pricing out of the way, let's dive into
how exactly to use this, where we can
use it, what the platform actually looks
like, and then we're going to dive into
the agents and use cases that I've
personally been using every single day
for the last 10 to [music] 12 days. So,
first of all, you can go ahead and
download this. I'm going to add a link
in the description. You could download
this for your Mac operating system as
well as you could download this on your
phone, which is my personal favorite way
to interact with this. Now, once you
download this onto your desktop and you
open it up, this is what you're going to
see. Well, I guess you won't see all of
this because I have ton of different
agents I've configured. Let me break
down exactly how this works. So, one
thing that is fundamentally different
between this and something like Claude
Code, Claude Co-work, Codeex, and all
these different AI agents that we've
used in the past is that we have
multiple different agents that are
basically just chat threads that we can
interact with. As you can see, I have a
health agent up top. I have my main
agent. I have a brand partnerships
agent, contentbot, short form, inbox
triage, investment agent. I basically
have probably at this point like 12
different agents that I'm running every
single day. And if I click on one of
these agents, you could see all of the
previous conversations that we've had
with it, which I personally like. It
makes it very organized. So when I want
to go and do anything email related, all
I have to do is go to my email agent and
I could see everything from previous
conversations. Now, one thing I do want
to point out is as at the top you can
see I have all of my demo agents. These
are the same exact agents that I've
configured that I run for myself
personally, but I told these agents to
use different names for clients and
different price numbers. So, all of this
is real information, but it's not the
actual clients in the price because I
didn't want to show this for
confidential reasons. And to be honest,
it's kind of hard to show how I'm using
Grockbot when it has all this
confidential information. So, think of
these demos as the exact same process
that I use, but not with my real
information. One thing I want to point
out is not only can we have specific
conversations with each of these
different Grock bots, but they can speak
with each other. So, if I pull up my
main agent right here, you can see it's
messaging with two other separate
agents, which is pretty cool. I didn't
even have to go and prompt it to do so.
It just knows whenever there is
something brand partnerships related, it
will go and text that agent. And the
same thing for my email agent. If I ever
want to see what they're saying back and
forth with each other, I could just
click on this. And I'm going to click on
email agent. And I mean, take a look at
this. Our main agent gave a brain dump
on basically everything that I want
accomplished. From there, my email agent
understands this goal and is able to go
and pull all this relevant information
for me and then feed it back to the main
agent. Then inside of my main
conversation here with the main agent,
it breaks all this down as you could see
right here. So, this is a fundamentally
different way that we interact with AI
that I'm actually really starting to
love. Now, next up, what I want to talk
about is plugins because this is how I'm
able to access things like ClickUp or
Gmail or Granola and look at all my
meeting notes and all those different
things. And this is where it could get
really powerful when we connect it to
the different applications that we're
using on a day-to-day basis. So, if I
come over here on the left-hand side,
you could see this little button that
says plugins. So, I'm going to click on
this. I have a couple that I've already
preconfigured, but you could go through
and search through this entire list and
add some of the different apps you use.
I think right now there's maybe like a
couple hundred pre-builtin connectors
that you could go ahead and sort
through. Now, the best part about the
plugins is we don't even necessarily
need to go and configure these
ourselves. We could just come into our
chat and simply just say, "Hey, I want
you to connect to my Google calendar.
Can you do it for me?" And Grockbot is
really good at doing the entire process
end to end. All we have to do is
authorize the account, which it'll
populate with this little card here for
us to click on, and it'll just do it for
us automatically. Now, let's talk about
use case number one that I've been
using. Rockbot 4 and that is to help me
with my email inbox and this has been a
gamecher for me personally. Basically, I
configured my main agent to add a
routine which is basically a scheduled
task that could run at any given time.
And so every morning at 8 a.m. it
automatically goes and scrapes not only
my personal email inbox, but also my
sponsorship email as well since we can
connect multiple different Gmail
accounts to our agents. And then it
basically just gives me the three things
that I need to focus on today. if
there's a specific contract that needs
to get signed or if there's an invoice
that needs to be generated, then the
agent will update me with that. But a
key thing that I want to note here is
I'm interacting with the main agent, but
this is communicating on my behalf with
the email agent right here. So, if I
want to open this up and see kind of
what they're talking about, our main
agent just says, "Hey, let's run our
scheduled task for the morning inbox
check." And then the email agent goes
and pulls all this information. And then
my main one comes back with all the
three things that I need to focus on and
do today. Now, in order to set up a
routine like this, it's very simple.
Either you could come over to the top
right, like you could see right here
with this little computer, and then we
have routines that we could preconfigure
right here. All you have to do is click
add. You could give it a name,
instruction, and you could click the
trigger, like basically when you want
this to run, or you could just come into
the chat conversation, say, "Hey, I want
you to run this task at this given time
and this given day." and it will set
that up for you automatically. Now, one
thing I've been really loving about
using Grockbot is the fact that we can
add multiple accounts to each of the
different apps that we connect. So, if
you do want to add multiple email
inboxes, I'm going to show you exactly
how to do that right now, cuz I get tons
of people asking how you could do this
inside of Claude, and it's simply just
not possible. This solves a major issue
for people that are juggling multiple
different email inboxes at once. So, if
I click on the Gmail plugin, I have two
different accounts. I have my default
account and my sponsorship email account
added. And all I have to do is add
another account here. Give it a name.
I'm just going to call this test or
something. Click authorize. And then
what it's going to do is it's going to
pull up your Gmail. And all you have to
do is just authorize that account. And
it takes one click to do so. Then if I
come into my email agent, I can just
say, "Hey, can you give me the last
three emails from both of my Gmail
accounts, please?" And just like that,
we get this response. It pulled from my
personal account as well as my other
inbox. And again, this has been
incredibly helpful for helping me manage
multiple inboxes at once, which we
weren't able to do with other AI tools
like Claude, Hermes Agent, OpenClaw,
etc. Now, this next use case is one
that's been really helpful in my life,
both personally, but on a business side,
and this is my meeting agent. So, let me
quickly break down the flow of this
right now before showing you a demo. So,
at the end of every single day, I have a
routine that fires at 5:00 p.m. It will
then automatically pull all of my
Granola meeting notes, which if you
don't know what Granola is, it's
basically an AI notetaker where it
automatically joins all of my meetings,
gives all the action items from those
meetings, and then inside of the meeting
agent, it will automatically add those
action items into ClickUp, and assign
the due dates as well as the team member
that needs to complete these tasks for
me. So, for example, I have this school
community board inside of ClickUp, and
literally all I did is have a
conversation with Granola and give a
brain dump on all the things that I need
to do inside of my school community. And
then it automatically added all of this
to my to-do list as well as it dragged
the specific tasks into the in progress
tab as well. Now, first of all, if you
want to sign up for Granola, there is a
link in the description. You could
download this for your desktop as well
as on your phone. And then once you have
this downloaded, you're going to see
this interface here. So I personally
have all these different meetings coming
up which Granola is automatically going
to join without me needing to like tell
it to go and join these meetings. And
then here are all the different notes
that I have. These are a mix of
different meetings that I had with team
members for my business, but also just
like notes that I had. So like yesterday
I went on a run and I basically broke
down in a voice note for about 5 minutes
everything that I need to do and
prioritize over the next week before I
go on this trip. Now, if I go and click
on one of these notes, you would see
that it automatically took the
transcript and then summarized it and
then added these bullet points right
here. That makes it really easy for not
only me to understand what this meeting
was about, but also for my EI agents to
understand as well. Now, the best part
about the meeting agent and granola
combined together is I have this
scheduled task where every single day at
5:00 p.m. it's automatically going to go
and pull all the meetings that I had
inside of Granola. And then what it's
going to do is it's actually going to
add these to a specific board inside of
ClickUp in order for me to track what's
going on inside of my business. So, as
you can see, it automatically added
these things to this specific board
inside of ClickUp. And one thing I want
to note is not only does it add it to
the board, but it picks which board to
add it to. Cuz for example, I have Loom
campaigns, which is for my agency, I
have my invoices and my payments, and I
even have a Grockbot task tracker here.
So, there's multiple different boards
that it can add to, but it knows
specifically which one to go and add
these tasks to. And notice that I said
that this is in progress confirming
YouTube shorts metadata in workflow
inside of Metrocool. So, whenever me and
my business partner are on a meeting or
something, it'll automatically like move
these to whatever process this is in for
our business. Now, let me show you how I
could use Granola on my phone and
basically just give it a brain dump and
then it will automatically use my
meeting agent to then route this to
ClickUp. Right here, I'm just going to
come and click add a new note. Hey, so
I'm working on a couple of things right
now um that are kind of top of mind. So,
first of all, I'm finishing up this
Grock Bob video. So, I need to confirm
the packaging. I need to then generate
the thumbnail for this video. On top of
that, I need to confirm that my flight
is rebooked to Lisbon cuz that flight is
in a couple of days. Also, can you add a
note to make sure that I don't forget my
passport before going to the airport?
So, as you can see, I just simply
recorded what I was talking about. You
could let this thing run for like 30
minutes and give it a brain dump if you
want. And then what it's going to do is
it's going to generate a TLDDR breakdown
of what it is that we talked about. So
just like that, there's those bullet
points right here. I could also access
this on my computer as well since it
syncs up with my desktop. Now, if I come
into my meeting agent inside of Grockbot
and I click on this computer up here and
I click on the routine, I could just
test run this right now. So what it's
going to do is it's going to scrape
Granola via the connector that I gave
it. And then it's going to give me the
action items and add these to ClickUp
for me. Right? So like 30 seconds later,
it then scraped this new note that we
just took. It found my YouTube video
board and added this right here that I
need to confirm Grockbot video packaging
and thumbnail generation as well as
inside of my Loom board. It said pack
passport before leaving for Lisbon. Now,
let's say you scroll through this entire
plug-in marketplace and you don't see an
app that you want to use that you want
to integrate your agent with. Well, you
can use something called the Zap Your
MCP, which allows you to connect to
9,000 plus different apps. And it's
really easy to set up. So that way you
can work across more applications than
just the ones that Grockbot allows you
to. For example, I have this MCP server
configured right here which has about
like 25 different applications that I
can use. For example, there's some apps
in here that I cannot connect to
directly inside of Grock. So I cannot
connect to school which is where I have
my entire community as well as Beehive
is another big one which is where I run
my email newsletter. So, if I want to be
able to perform actions inside of
Beehive with my agents that I configure
inside of Grockbot, I actually have to
be using Zap Your MCP since it's not
accessible in this list right here. Now,
this is very simple to set up. First of
all, you just need to have a Zapier
account. You could sign up with a link
in the description and then you're going
to come into your plug-in marketplace
and then simply just look up Zapier and
then click on this add button. It's
going to ask you to authorize your
account from inside of Zapier. And then
it will show that it's added right here.
And in order to test this out, let me
just come into my inbox agent and say,
"Hey, I want you to use the Zap Your MCP
to pull different stats from my Beehive
campaigns so I can understand how many
people I have on my newsletter." And
here we go. It went and pulled from
Beehive using the Zap Your MCP. It shows
a newsletter size. It shows my open rate
as well as the average click rate. And
the cool part is I could even have it go
and perform actions inside of Beehive
for me since it's now connected. Now,
Grockbot or any AI agent for that matter
is only as good as the data that we feed
it. So, if we're trying to scrape data
from the internet, we want it to be
efficient, fast, and verified from
sources. Well, I'm going to show you a
simple plugin that you can add to
Grockbot. So, that way, you never have
to worry about whether or not you're
getting the right information inside of
Grockbot. All right, I want you to think
about it like this. A normal search with
a tool like Grockbot is basically like a
librarian handing you a cart full of
books. You personally still have to read
all these books yourself. Well, if we
use a tool like Parallel to read the
books, it will then just hand you the
three or four different lines that
actually matter instead of us needing to
go and source through all this
information ourselves. So, this does
three different things for Grockbot.
One, it's faster. We don't need to have
Grockbot go and click through these
different pages. Two, it uses fewer
tokens, so our Grock plan lasts us
longer. And three, it's just more
accurate since our agent is working from
the actual source material. It just
makes all of our answers inside of
Grockbot more accurate. Not only that,
but if you plug in parallel to your
Grockbot, you can just have confidence
that it's going to be able to go and
scrape whatever it is that you want.
Now, another way that parallel can be
extremely useful when you tie it with
Grockbot is having it go and monitor a
specific web page. So, for example,
let's say you have a competitor and you
want to track their pricing. You could
have it go monitor that website and when
there is a new change to the pricing
could automatically run a deep research
task inside of parallel and then you
could have Grockbot text you the final
information. And that's just one use
case. There's plenty of other ones you
could do in order to monitor specific
web pages on the internet. Now in order
to give you an example of how this deep
research with parallel works inside of
Grockbot I want to show you the output
that it gets when it does a deep
research task for us. So for example it
shows right here give a history on open
web. very simple prompt and what it did
is it gave this research document back
and this is what the human can view.
This is like all the data that it
extracts and shows it in this interface
for a human. But what we want to focus
on is if I click on machine here, this
is what our agent is then fed and this
is a more efficient way for our agent to
store data in order for us to interact
with it. Now let me show this in action.
So, what I did is I basically came to my
agent and said, "I want you to use
Parallel in order to monitor the price
of Bitcoin. Once it hits $80,000, I want
you to message me directly here inside
of this agent." So, what it did is it
went ahead and set this up inside of
Parallel. I didn't even have to see any
of the work that it was doing. But, if I
open up my Parallel account and I click
on monitor, you can now see that we have
this query right here. So, it's going to
use this monitor task in order to track
the price of Bitcoin on coin gecko or
coinarketcap.com. This is running every
single hour and when it hits that price
of $80,000 or if it ever does, it's then
going to text me through my agent. And
this is just one simple use case that
you could use when using Parallel, but
it's really powerful when you combine it
with Grockbot or any of the agents that
you're using. And it's super simple to
set up. So, let me show you how to set
it up right now. First of all, you're
going to want to sign up with an
account. If you don't have an account,
there is a link in the description to
sign up. And then all we need to do is
come into Grockbot and either you could
just chat with the agent and say, "Hey,
I want you to connect Parallel to our
account or we could come over to plugin
here and then simply search up
Parallel." I already have mine added,
but let me show you how to install it if
you don't already have it installed.
Now, it's as simple as clicking this add
button here. It's then going to have you
authorize your account in the account
that you just set up. And then just like
that, we are all set. Now, this next use
case is one specific to me and the type
of content that I make. But the main
point of this is that we could use
Grockbot in order to scrape X for
content ideas or just trending things
going on in the AI space. So, we could
almost use Grockbot to filter out
different things that are going on,
whether that's inside of our industry
inside of AI, your specific industry,
etc. So for example, I just gave it this
very basic prompt inside of my content
bot and said scrape X over the last two
days and find trending things in the AI
space that would be good for content
ideas. Then since it directly connects
to Twitter or they call it X now it
automatically will go and find all the
things trending. So that way I don't
need to spend my time scrolling on X
wasting time because it could just suck
me in and eats up all my productivity.
Now, in order to set this up, you're
going to come over to plugins right
here, and then you could simply just
search for X. And it's as simple as just
clicking authorize, and it will set this
up for you. Or you could just come to
chat and say, "Hey, I want you to add
X." So, you could pull all the posts
from there. Now, this next use case is
one that I'm personally going to be
using quite a bit, and I've really been
loving playing around with this over the
last day. And that is my invoice agent.
And not only am I just going to use this
invoice agent, but this is going to be
paired with my inbox agent that I just
showed you earlier on in the video. Now,
let me quickly break down exactly how
this is going to work. So, I have my
invoicing agent, and what I'm going to
do is I'm going to set an autot trigger,
which is one of the coolest parts of
Grockbot, which I'm going to explain in
a little bit. And what this means is
whenever an invoice email arrives, it's
automatically going to flag this
automation where it's going to then
draft a invoice in my style, send the
email to this client, and then on top of
that, it's going to track this in
ClickUp, so I could see exactly what
stage my payments are in inside of
ClickUp, as well as my entire team can
view that as well. Now, let me show you
exactly how to set this up, cuz it's
really easy to create a new bot or an
agent inside of Grobbox. So, I'm just
going to click on create new. And all
I'm going to do is I'm going to come
down to messagebot and just give it a
brain dump. All right. So, here's the
prompt that I'm going to give it. I
basically said create an invoice agent
that does these tasks. Works with the
inbox triage agent to scrape my emails.
Keeps track of all invoices and owed
payments. Generates invoices for me and
a specific style. And then tracks the
status of all invoices inside of my
ClickUp board called invoices and
payments. Then next, what I'm going to
do is I'm just going to upload a PDF
example of what I want this invoice to
look like. So that way it always
recreates it in this style with all of
my payment information. So I never need
to basically generate an invoice myself
again. So here is an example right here
of an invoice that I wanted to recreate.
I really like this style. And now when I
upload this as a reference, it's always
going to look exactly like this. So what
I'm going to do now is simply just send
this off to my agent. And now, as you
can see, it's going and crafting this
invoice style as well as just setting up
this entire agent. One thing that you'll
notice is we have this little green
icon. So, each of our bots or agents we
have basically have their own icon. And
whenever it's moving like this, you
could see on the left-h hand side, this
basically just means that it's working
in real time. If it is stagnant, like
some of these ones right here, that
means that it's not performing any
tasks. I think this is really cool to
kind of just see which of the agents are
working at any given time. All right, so
just a few minutes later, it actually
went ahead generated this invoice in the
exact style. This is great. We can go
ahead and download this directly onto
our computer. Let me just go ahead
download that. And then now it's
basically saying that this is done. Say
the word when you want to generate the
next invoice or want me to pull what's
owed from ClickUp. So since this is
already connected to ClickUp, it's able
to go and pull the other invoices that
I've either sent or generated. So I
could see basically what needs to be
paid and what has been paid. Now, this
is really cool. We obviously have an
agent that has a specific style of
invoices that it's able to generate. But
where this gets really interesting is
when we come over here to create a
routine. This is where we could either
have this run on a schedule where every
single day this invoice agent will go
and scrape from my email inbox and then
identify what invoices we need to
generate, but also I could click on
create invoice and we can add a specific
trigger. So, what I mean by this is we
could basically connect this to a Slack
channel. So whenever there is a message
related to invoices, it will
automatically trigger this agent, which
this is the first time we've kind of
seen this from these AI agent platforms.
Before we could do scheduled tasks and
whatnot in Cloud Co-work, but we didn't
really have the option to allow
automations to kick off from a specific
trigger or event that's happening inside
of our apps. Now, I want to show you
something really cool. Now, if I come
over to my inbox triage agent, you can
see there is this conversation happening
between the inbox agent and the invoice
agent. And I didn't even have to go and
tell it to go and do this. It just
automatically knew intuitively that it
needed to communicate with other agent
in order to get this done. So, invoice
agent said, "Hey, Brock set me up as the
agent. Please hand me anything invoice
or payment related from our email
triage." So, it basically broke down
everything that it needs to flag for us.
And then the inbox triage agent went and
pulled through my email and found the
specific things that I need to, you
know, understand and be up to date with.
All right. So, what I'm going to do now
is create a group chat with the invoice
agent in my inbox agent. And what I'm
going to do is I'm just going to give it
a brain dump, but say, "Hey, I want you
to go and check my emails from the past
day. Find any email that is invoice
related. If there are specific invoices
that we need to create, use the invoice
agent in order to generate the invoices.
Then I want you to draft the reply with
the invoice in the email as well as I
want you to then add these to ClickUp in
order to track the process and the
status of all of these different
payments. Now, to show you real quickly
inside of my email inbox, I went ahead
and drafted three different emails as
demos because I don't want to show like
actual invoices that I need to create
just for confidential reasons. What it
did is it pulled from my email inbox and
now you could see basically all of the
invoices that we need to generate right
here. So, what it's going to do is now
generate the invoices, create the draft
reply for the email, so I could just go
and send it myself. And it's then going
to update this inside of ClickUp so I
could see the status of all these. All
right. And just like that, we now have
these emails drafted. So, for example,
if I click on this one, you can see that
it added this reply email as well as
even attached the specific invoice. And
I could go ahead and pull this up right
here in the exact style that we fed it.
as well as if I come into my invoice and
payments board inside of ClickUp, we can
now see that all of these invoices have
been submitted. As well as if I click on
this, it shows the client information
here, shows the email thread, and now me
and my team can see exactly where we're
at in the invoicing process. So guys,
there we have it. That is Grockbot, how
it works, a bunch of different use cases
that you can use, and it is now
available for free for you to try out or
you could have access to it on the $60
per month plan. Like I said, I've been
using this every single day since this
has released, and it's completely
changed how I've been using AI. I've
almost completely switched from using
Claude Co-work to now just texting
Grockbot on my phone all throughout the
day in order to get different tasks done
with my different agents I've
configured. And it's really powerful if
you connect it to the specific apps you
work across. So, if you guys got some
value from this video, leave a like,
subscribe to this channel, and let me
know what you think of Grockbot. And if
you want more videos like this, just
make sure to subscribe. And I have
plenty of content coming out soon.
Thanks for saying the end and I'll see
you in the next
