So, Cursor just came out with something

new. It's called Grokbot. I got early

access to it, so I've been able to test

it out for a couple of days. And I have

to say, this could be the thing that

finally gets regular people to start

using AI agents. Because it's not only

really good, but also very intuitive.

Opening up the desktop app, you'll see

that this UI feels very similar to a

messenger app, like iMessage. Everything

you do in Grokbot centers around these

bots that you set up. For instance, here

I have one that helps me with my emails,

one that helps me outline my YouTube

videos. This one helps me negotiate

deals. And then I also have one that I

just use for general purposes if it

doesn't fit into one of the other

categories. What's also pretty neat here

is you can start a chat with multiple

bots. You're not limited to just one.

You can see that at the top, for

instance, I have a new chat open here. I

already have two of my bots selected. I

can select even more if I wanted to. And

then all of these bots will work

together on whatever task I give them.

Or if you're already in the middle of a

chat, you can bring another bot into the

conversation just by typing in @ and

selecting the bot here. And that will

allow that bot to help with that task.

So, you're basically creating these

co-workers that each specialize in a

different area. It's a little bit of a

shift if you're used to using Claude

co-work or ChatGPT work, where you sort

of think in terms of tasks. Here, you

need to start thinking in terms of

roles. Okay, but let's back up now and

I'll show you how to set up Grokbot and

all the things that you can do with the

bots. To get started, download Grokbot

using the link in the description down

below. That will be the desktop app.

There's also an app for the iPhone as

well, which I'll show you in a couple

minutes.

Once you download over here on the left,

you're not going to have as many bots

that I have. So, to set up your first

one, you want to click on the plus icon

right here where it says new chat. And

then here inside this chat, you can

either select a bot that you've already

created or click right here where it

says create new bot. Now, you can do

this fully by having the AI set it up

for you because all you have to do is

just talk to the bot and it will set

itself up. So, here for instance, it's

asking me what do I want to use the bot

for? What do I want it to be around for?

And then I'm just going to describe down

here what I'm looking for. So, I'm going

to tell it, "Hey, I need your help with

planning out a vacation. I want to put

together a couple of different

itineraries to different locations and

then I want you to find me the best deal

and monitor maybe for a couple of weeks.

Hopefully, the prices can come down for

hotels or airlines. Basically, I want

the best deal possible on an awesome

vacation." So, what I'm doing here is

I'm brain dumping what it is I'm looking

for and then I'm just sending that

along. And what I've noticed that

Grokbot is really good at is just

figuring things out on its own. I'm not

telling it how to check for deals and

what websites to use or even where I

want to go. It's going to follow up with

questions and then it's just going to

figure it out. So, here it's saying,

"Where are you leaning? A couple of

places or vibes like Europe? I'll start

sketching itineraries from there." So,

I'll say, "Europe." Now, I'll select a

few of these. I think Italy sounds good.

But I'll actually tell it in the chat.

I'll say, "Italy, Greece, UK. All of

those sound good. And then looking for

around Thanksgiving." So, literally all

I'm doing here is answering the

questions that it's giving me and that's

it. Okay, so the bot has put together a

plan based on all of the answers that I

gave it and now it's starting to look

for some ballpark fares to all the

locations that I was interested in.

While this is happening, I want to point

out to you something up here at the top.

Up here at the top, we have the name of

the bot which right now is just new bot.

If I click on this, this opens up a

panel on the right where I can rename

it, give it a title, and give it

description. You can either do that

manually, or you can just tell the bot

in the chat to update all that. So, I'll

just tell it something like, "Give

yourself a clever name and write a

description for yourself and title, cuz

you're going to help me with travel in

the future, as well."

All right. Atlas, very clever name. I

love that. So, it finished that, coming

up with this name and description, and

now it's still looking for the flight

information. All right, so it has

identified some travel itineraries for

me, and it says, "Which ones should I

watch?" I'm going to have it watch all

three of them. And it's going to be able

to do that, even if my computer is off

and it's closed, because each bot gets

its own always-on computer with a

browser, files, and logins, so it can

keep working even when you're not

working and when your computer is off.

You can see a good example of that right

here. I'm setting up this new bot called

Lincoln. He's going to help me do some

research on LinkedIn into different

companies, but in order to do that, he's

saying that I should log in to my

LinkedIn account, so it can actually use

the browser and navigate around

LinkedIn, find different companies to

reach out to, and actually reach out to

them for me. So, it went to

linkedin.com. I can click right here now

where it says take over to actually

enter in my password and login

information, cuz that's not something I

want to actually give one of my bots.

So, I can click right here where it says

sign in with email, go ahead and sign

in, and now that I'm signed in, I can

click on the top right here where it

says I'm done, continue, and then the

bot can take back over. Now, like I said

before, the bots are really good at just

sort of figuring out how to get

something done. In this case, it

determined that the best way to help me

with this LinkedIn research and outreach

is to actually use the browser. But, it

does have plugins available. So, if you

click right down here on the bottom left

where it says plugins, you can see all

those plugins here, but honestly, I

wouldn't ever come in here or worry

about this. Because as you are chatting

with the bots, if it needs access to

something like your Gmail or your Google

Drive or Notion, it will just set that

up in the chat for you. So here, if I

tell Lincoln that anytime it does

research for me, I want it to add it to

a new page in Notion, you'll notice that

it's now prompting me to connect Notion

because I don't yet have it connected.

And it's using the plugin for that. It's

not using the browser because it knows

that that's the most efficient way of

doing it is through the plugin. And I

can click right here where it says

authorize and that will then open up

Safari on my computer or whatever your

default browser is. I can log in to my

Notion account and authorize Grokbot to

have access to it. Now, I showed you

before how sometimes a bot will ask you

to take over its computer if you need to

do something like log in. But at any

time, you can see exactly what the bot

is doing on its computer. And you can do

that by clicking on the top right here

on this computer icon. And right here is

the bot's screen. You can click on this

and you can see what is happening on

their computer. In this case, the bot is

just on the desktop. It's not doing

anything. But sometimes it might have

Chrome open, it might have the file

manager open, or it might have its

terminal open. So you can always see

exactly what it's doing. You can also

teach the bot a task. So if you click on

the top right here where it says teach a

task, it is now recording its own screen

and you can show it step-by-step how you

want it to go through a certain workflow

or task. Like I'll tell it to open up

Google Chrome, tell it to navigate to

website, click here, click here, do

that, do that, and it records all of

that and learns it so that it can then

repeat it on its own in the future. So

once you're done, you just click on stop

and then all of that is automatically

being loaded into it as a skill for

itself. And then anything a bot does for

you can be done on a schedule. So, in

the case of Atlas, which was the bot

that we had set up to help me find a

very good deal on a flight, I just

described to it, "Hey, I want you to

keep an eye on all the airlines and

different hotels and find me a good

deal." And so, you see over here on the

right, underneath routines, it set that

up to run on a schedule. You can always

press on this plus icon to create a new

routine by hand, like manually doing it.

I wouldn't recommend that though.

Literally, just describe in the chat

what routine you want set up, and then

it will do it. You click on the computer

icon on the top right, and underneath

the bot screen, you'll see all the

routines that that bot is running. But,

honestly, I don't see myself using

Grokbot all that much. And by that, I

mean the Grokbot desktop app, because

everything you can do with Grokbot, you

can do from your phone with the app. And

I think this is a much better way to use

it. So, here, inside my phone, you can

see I'm here inside Grokbot, and you can

see all the same chats that are

available on the desktop app. And I can

click on the top right here and create a

new bot or create a new group chat with

multiple bots. Opening up any of the

chats, it shows you everything that we

see on the desktop, and you can even see

the bot's computer, and you can take it

over from your phone, which is pretty

incredible. And since the experience is

exactly the same on both devices, I

think this is going to be the modality

that I end up using a lot more. Just

open it up, use the dictation tool to

just speak into it, and just assign all

of my bots different work. Okay, so what

do I like and what do I not like about

Grokbot? I've already said this like

four or five times, so I probably sound

like a broken record, but it is true.

Grokbot just figures things out. You

give it a task, and it will accomplish

it. It is not lazy at all, like you see

with other models and other tools, where

it will work and kind of give up and

just say like, "Oh, I wasn't able to do

it." No, Grokbot will fight, and it

really wants to accomplish whatever task

that you give it. I also really love the

UI and just the way that it's set up,

how we have these agents over here on

the side that really feel like

employees. Like if I want help with

sales, I talk to this bot. If I need

help managing my inbox, I talk to this

bot. They all have an assigned role, so

it feels like you're building a team of

AI agents. We've seen that with other

tools, but those have been more

complicated to set up. This one is up

and running the moment that you open it

up. It is one of the most intuitive

tools I have ever used for working with

AI agents. You can even just set up one

bot that is your chief of staff, and

then that bot will delegate all the

tasks out to the other bots. So, you

never even have to talk to the other

bots, you can just talk to this one

chief of staff bot. I also love that the

experience on mobile is so good and

works exactly the same as the experience

on desktop, which means that I can

manage all these new employees from

wherever I am, as long as I have my

phone with me. But, Grokbot isn't

perfect. There are some things that I

hope that they add in the future. So,

first of all, when you are setting up a

bot, you'll notice that there is no way

for you to choose which model is being

used. And that's because behind the

scenes, it's just choosing the best

model based on the task, which I think

for most people and for general

consumers, that's great. But, for a lot

of people like you and I, like if you're

watching this video, you probably want

to choose which model is being used. And

the fact that we can't make that choice,

and that there's no advanced mode, is a

little bit disappointing. I would like

to see that added in the future. I would

also love to see some kind of live mode.

This button only does dictation. There's

no live with the bots, which is a

feature I use quite a lot with other

tools, so I would really love to see

that. I think it would work so well with

Grok bot. Again, have that one chief of

staff, just use voice mode, and just

start rattling off all these tasks, and

it'll start assigning them to the other

bots. That would be awesome. I'm sure

they're working on that, but I hope it

is added soon. But the biggest problem

with Grok bot is that it's in beta right

now, and it's only available if you have

Super Grok Heavy, which costs $300 a

month. But that's as of the recording of

this video. I'm sure in the future it's

going to become available on the cheaper

plans, hopefully in the very near

future. And once that does happen, I

will update the pinned comment down

below to let you guys know. So,

unfortunately, most people, at least as

of right now, aren't going to be able to

try out Grok bot because of the price,

but hopefully that changes soon. So,

that's Grok bot, a very impressive tool.

And once it becomes more affordable, I

think this could finally be the product

that helps regular consumers understand

what agents are, and why they are the

future when it comes to using AI. It

really feels like you are creating a

team of AI employees that can help you

do your job or run your business for

you. But that's all I got for this

video. If you found it helpful and want

news for different tools, like Grok bot,

for now.
