Grockbot is so powerful and so simple

0:03

that using it is such a delight because

0:05

anything you throw at it, it just does.

0:08

The more I use it, the more I'm blown

0:10

away by what it can do. So, in this

0:12

video, I'm going to show you five of the

0:13

wildest ways I've been using Grockbot,

0:16

plus how you can set up your own team of

0:18

bots. A quick heads up before we get

0:20

started. This video is sponsored by

0:22

SpaceX, the company behind Grockbot. But

0:25

this video is not a review. It's a deep

0:27

dive into the bots that I use and how I

0:30

set them up. So, if that's cool with

0:31

you, let's get into it. To get started,

0:34

come over to x.ai/bot

0:36

to download Grockbot for your desktop.

0:39

When I first covered Grockbot on my

0:41

channel, a lot of comments said the same

0:43

thing. It looks great, but at $200 a

0:46

month, it is way too expensive. Well,

0:49

the team behind Grockbot listened

0:51

because now it starts at just $20 a

0:54

month. And if you're already on an

0:56

eligible cursor, Super Grock, or Teams

0:58

plan, Grockbot is included. After

1:01

downloading the app for the first time,

1:02

you'll want to set up your bots. You'll

1:04

see all of mine over here on the left.

1:06

We'll get to some of those in a moment,

1:08

but first, let me show you how to create

1:10

your first bot. To do that, click on the

1:12

top here where there's this plus icon

1:14

and then select new bot. That will open

1:17

up a new thread and you can select at

1:19

the top where it says create new bot.

1:21

The first bot I suggest you set up is

1:23

your chief of staff or delegator bot.

1:25

This is the bot that is going to be your

1:27

main point of contact and will then

1:29

delegate tasks to the other bots. What's

1:32

cool about creating bots in Grockbot is

1:34

that you set them up just by having a

1:36

conversation. And you can see that

1:38

already happening right here. The bot

1:40

said hide me and said what do you

1:42

actually want to use me for? And it

1:44

gives me a few choices or I can type in

1:45

my own. I suggest you tell this first

1:47

bot something like this. I want you to

1:49

be my main point of contact. I'll send

1:51

you tasks and then have you delegate

1:53

them to the other bots. Next, you have

1:56

to pick a name for your bot. And this is

1:58

where I've had a lot of fun with my

2:00

bots. You can see I've given each of

2:02

them a unique name that represents what

2:05

role they fill in my business and in my

2:07

personal life. So, my chief of staff or

2:10

delegator bot I've named chief. So, you

2:13

can steal that if you want. Name it

2:15

chief. Chief of Staff, Delegator Debbie,

2:17

something like that. For this example,

2:19

I'm going to call this one Captain. If

2:21

you have a favorite television show,

2:23

book, or movie, you can name all of your

2:25

bots after characters in that. What you

2:27

can also do is give each of your bots a

2:29

unique image. So, the default images

2:32

look like this. There are these blobs of

2:34

color. And if you click on the name of

2:38

your bot on the top, you'll see over

2:40

here on the right your settings. So, you

2:43

can come in here and change the way that

2:45

your bot looks. You can update its name

2:47

and its description. But what I usually

2:50

do is if I want to make any changes like

2:52

that, I just tell the bot in the chat to

2:55

make those changes. And if you'll notice

2:57

over here on the left, all of my bots

2:59

have actual images that represent who

3:02

they are. So, the way I did that was I

3:04

just told the bot, create an image for

3:06

yourself that represents who you are.

3:08

And it's pretty fun watching them come

3:10

up with an image for themsel that they

3:13

think represents who they are. And there

3:14

we go. There's Captain. And if you'll

3:17

notice, it not only created the image,

3:19

but it also updated its image over here.

3:22

So that's its new avatar. And really,

3:25

it's that simple. With a lot of other AI

3:27

tools, you have to configure API keys,

3:30

choose a model, and write system

3:32

instructions. Grockbot eliminates all of

3:34

that. You just describe the role, answer

3:36

a few questions, and the bot is ready.

3:39

Let's set up your other bots now so you

3:41

can have a team of bots just like I do.

3:43

As you're thinking about building out

3:45

your team, you should be thinking of

3:46

each of your bots as an employee with a

3:50

specialized role. So, every time you

3:52

need help with contracts, for instance,

3:54

you'll always use the same bot for that.

3:56

And unlike a lot of other AI tools where

3:59

you might have multiple threads that are

4:01

related topics, with Grockbot, you

4:04

always go to the same bot for the same

4:07

topic or task. Like here with the

4:09

contracts, I'm going to the same bot

4:11

every time I need it to review a

4:13

contract for me. It really feels like

4:15

you're just messaging an employee on

4:17

something like iMessage. So, let me run

4:19

you through some of my bots and what

4:21

they can do. We'll start with Scribe.

4:23

Scribe is in charge of my email inbox,

4:26

but also a lot more than that. If you

4:29

click on the name of your bot on the

4:31

top, that will open up the right side

4:33

panel where you can see their name and

4:35

description. And you'll see here that I

4:37

also give all of my bots a title.

4:40

Scribe. I've given the title of email.

4:43

That way, when I look at all the bots

4:44

over here on the left, I not only see

4:46

the name, but I can quickly see what

4:48

their role is. Scribe is in charge of

4:51

email. Prism is my designer. and

4:53

Hemingway is my scriptor. But returning

4:56

back to the description over here, you

4:58

see that Scribe is in charge of not only

5:00

my inbox, but they also manage my entire

5:04

content calendar to make sure I release

5:06

all my YouTube videos on time. And they

5:08

help me negotiate all of my brand deals.

5:11

And all of that requires them to have

5:12

access to a lot of thirdparty tools,

5:15

like Gmail, for instance. What's cool

5:17

about that is that in order to give a

5:19

bot access to a third-party tool, you

5:22

just chat with it and it will tell you

5:25

if it needs access to a tool in order to

5:27

do its job and will walk you through

5:30

setting up access. So, when I first set

5:33

up and used Scribe, I told it I wanted

5:35

it to help me with my emails. And then

5:38

it said, "Oh, we should connect up your

5:39

Gmail." And it pulled up this card right

5:42

here. I just had to click on it and it

5:44

walked me through how to connect Gmail

5:46

with Grockbot so Scribe could then have

5:48

access to my email inbox. Anyway, that's

5:51

Scribe. And actually, I rarely message

5:53

Scribe directly because she works on a

5:56

routine. A few times a day, she checks

5:59

my inbox, researches the companies that

6:01

have reached out to me, compares that

6:03

against my content calendar, drafts

6:05

replies, and gives me suggestions on how

6:07

to handle each email. And all of that is

6:10

done even if my computer is off. And

6:13

that's because all bots have access to a

6:16

computer in the cloud that's logged in

6:18

to all the tools you use. So routines

6:21

will run even if your computer is off.

6:23

If you want to set up a routine like

6:25

this for yourself, it's very easy

6:26

because you can just ask your bot to do

6:28

it. To set up your own Scribe, I again

6:31

click on the plus, click on new bot, and

6:33

then create a new bot. And then tell it

6:35

something like your name is Scribe.

6:37

You're going to handle all my emails for

6:39

me. Scan through the last two weeks of

6:41

emails to understand the types of emails

6:43

I get and how I respond. Then look at

6:46

the notion page entitled CRM where I'm

6:48

tracking all my leads. From there, set

6:50

up a routine so you draft replies to all

6:53

the emails I receive every 2 hours

6:56

during the day. Once you submit that, it

6:58

will name itself Scribe. It will pull up

7:01

the plugins that need to be added and

7:03

then set up a routine so it can handle

7:05

your email inbox for you. The important

7:08

thing here is that Scribe isn't

7:09

responding to emails in a void. She has

7:12

the full context of my business and can

7:14

access the tools and resources needed to

7:17

respond successfully. And all of that

7:19

was set up with just a conversation. One

7:21

thing I only briefly mentioned so far is

7:23

that your bots will talk to each other.

7:25

It's one of the coolest features of

7:26

Grockbot. You can put several bots in

7:29

the same channel, give them one project,

7:31

and watch them pass the work between

7:33

themselves instead of asking you to

7:35

approve each step. This is most obvious

7:37

when you use a chief of staff or

7:39

delegator bot because their whole job is

7:41

literally to delegate work to other

7:43

bots. You can see a good example of that

7:45

here. I told Chief that I wanted her to

7:48

come up with an idea for a YouTube video

7:51

and put as much together as she can. So

7:54

instead of doing that work herself, she

7:56

first spoke to Seeker. Seeker is my

7:59

researcher bot. She goes out and does

8:02

research on trending topics, and she's

8:05

able to see what kinds of topics would

8:08

make good YouTube videos. So she pulled

8:10

up a bunch of ideas, came back to Chief

8:13

with those, and then Chief spoke to

8:15

Hemingway. Hemingway is my scriptorbot.

8:18

It knows my tone of voice. It knows how

8:21

I like to outline my YouTube videos. So

8:24

then Hemingway put together the outlines

8:27

for three different videos. And you can

8:29

see that when Hemingway was finished, it

8:31

actually messaged Chief. And we can

8:33

click on this right here to see their

8:35

exchange. I mean, look at all of this.

8:38

This is a conversation back and forth

8:40

between Chief and Hemingway that I'm not

8:43

a part of at all. I had no idea that all

8:45

this was happening in the background,

8:47

but that's how this works. They then

8:50

sent the task over to Prism, who is my

8:52

designer. And Prism came up with some

8:54

ideas for YouTube thumbnails. And you

8:58

can see here that Prism got this

8:59

assignment directly from Hemingway after

9:02

he finished putting together the script.

9:04

He then sent them over to Prism so that

9:06

Prism could come up with the ideas for

9:08

the thumbnails. And again, all of this

9:10

was a conversation I was not a part of

9:12

at all. It's absolutely wild. Let me

9:15

return back to Seeker because I want to

9:18

show you what else I use her for. I use

9:22

this as my primary research bot.

9:25

Grockbot has an X plugin. So, Seeker can

9:29

monitor X 24/7 looking for video

9:33

opportunities for my channel. If you're

9:34

not a content creator, you can tell

9:36

Seeker to monitor for important updates

9:38

in your field. With that plugin,

9:41

Grogbite is the best tool I have found

9:43

for monitoring X, which I'm sure as you

9:45

know is where all the news breaks these

9:47

days. But Seeker doesn't just stop at

9:50

research. Once Seeker finds a good

9:53

opportunity, it will send it over to

9:56

Mapmaker. And again, we can see that

9:58

conversation happening right here. She

10:01

found all of these different video

10:03

topics, sent them over to Mapmaker. And

10:06

Mapmaker is my brainstormer. It's going

10:09

to determine whether that topic will be

10:11

a good fit for my channel right now and

10:14

what angle I might take. So, the two of

10:16

them together discuss back and forth all

10:20

of these different trending topics that

10:22

Seeker has found and then MapMaker will

10:24

determine if it's something it wants to

10:26

bring to my attention. And if it does

10:29

and I approve the video, it will then

10:31

send it over to Hemingway to outline the

10:33

video. So, for this workflow, I'm being

10:35

kept in the loop. I'm still going to

10:37

approve every video before it gets

10:40

outlined. But all the backend stuff, all

10:43

the wrote research, that is all being

10:46

done automatically. And all my bots are

10:49

filtering out all the noise, so I only

10:52

get what is most important. My favorite

10:54

bot, though, is Concierge. Concierge

10:58

makes me feel like I am some highpowered

11:00

decillionaire CEO because her entire

11:03

purpose is to make my life more

11:06

comfortable. She has access to my Google

11:08

calendar and checks it every morning and

11:10

then she does whatever it takes to make

11:13

my life easier. For example, I have a

11:15

bunch of dietary restrictions and

11:17

sometimes I show up at a restaurant and

11:18

I have no idea what to order. Well, the

11:21

other day she noticed that I had a

11:24

reservation at a local restaurant for

11:25

brunch. So, she opened up her browser,

11:28

looked at the menu, and worked with my

11:30

fitness bot, Coach Cal. And together,

11:33

the two of them figured out some

11:35

suggestions on what I should order. Is

11:37

this something I could do for myself?

11:39

Absolutely. But this saves me a little

11:41

bit of mental bandwidth, and honestly,

11:43

it's just nice. For example, I also go

11:45

to physical therapy every week because I

11:47

kind of messed up my shoulder recently,

11:49

and my PT's office is right near

11:51

Smoothie King. If Concierge sees

11:54

physical therapy on my calendar, it will

11:56

make sure that there is a smoothie

11:57

waiting for me to pick up when I leave

12:00

PT. I just gave it a list of flavors

12:02

that I like, but I told it, "Don't tell

12:04

me which one you're ordering that day,

12:05

so it's always a surprise." A lot of

12:07

this is possible because all of your

12:09

bots have access to a computer in the

12:11

cloud that's logged in to all the tools

12:13

that you use. You can see the cloud

12:15

computer by clicking on this computer

12:17

icon on the top right. And if you open

12:20

it up, you can see their computer. So we

12:22

have down here the Chrome browser, it

12:25

has a file manager and it has terminal.

12:28

So as long as you can do the task in a

12:31

browser, your bot can do it for you. You

12:34

don't need your laptop on because they

12:36

all have access to a computer in the

12:38

cloud that's logged in to the tools that

12:41

you would use anyway. for this smoothie

12:44

example. The first time I set this up,

12:46

Concierge asked me to sign into Door

12:49

Dash on the website and then I took over

12:52

the browser, logged in, put in my login

12:55

information, and now Concierge has

12:57

access to my Door Dash account so it can

13:00

place those orders for me. The last bot

13:02

I want to show you today is called Bob,

13:04

the builder. And his job is to just

13:07

build things for me. If I have ideas for

13:09

apps or websites, that's his job. I've

13:11

been doing a lot of vibe coding

13:12

recently. I find it really neat to

13:14

create personalized software. And it

13:16

turns out Grock and Grockbot are really

13:19

good for vibe coding. What I've also

13:21

done is given Bob a routine. So every

13:24

month he looks through my website and

13:27

updates it with the current information.

13:30

So, there's a lot of stuff here that can

13:31

quickly get out of date, like the number

13:33

of subscribers that I have, number of

13:35

views on my channel, the latest videos

13:38

that I have up here that are doing well,

13:40

as well as some other stuff. So, every

13:42

month now, Bob updates all of that

13:45

automatically for me. That's something I

13:47

got very lazy about in the past. A lot

13:49

of my website would be out of date, but

13:51

now Bob makes sure that it's always

13:53

current. This is another one of those

13:55

things where I just had no idea if it

13:57

was possible. So, I asked Bob if he was

13:59

able to do it, and he figured it out. He

14:01

had me log in everywhere I needed to log

14:03

in so that he can keep everything

14:05

updated. Now, you may not have a website

14:07

like I do, but there's surely something

14:09

that you have to do on a routine every

14:12

month or couple of months that you just

14:14

don't want to have to worry about. And

14:16

that's the perfect kind of task to

14:17

outsource to a bot. Honestly, I feel

14:20

like I'm just scratching the surface of

14:21

what you can do with Grockbot. Once you

14:23

start thinking in terms of jobs instead

14:26

of prompts or threads, there are a lot

14:28

of directions you can take this in. Over

14:30

here, for instance, is Atlas. This is my

14:33

travelbot who monitors flights and hotel

14:36

prices for me. I'm going to set up

14:38

another one to optimize my credit card

14:40

points because I have a ton of those

14:42

just sitting there unused because I

14:44

don't even know how to use them. But I'm

14:45

going to put a bot on the job so we can

14:47

figure it out. I have Hound here who is

14:50

my personal shopper. They're always

14:52

looking around for the best deals for

14:53

me. I have another one called

14:55

Nightingale. She's shopping for health

14:58

insurance for me, which is such a

15:00

nightmare for me to do myself. So, I've

15:02

just given that job to a bot. The point

15:04

is, there are a ton of possibilities

15:05

with this if you get creative. In fact,

15:08

I'm thinking about creating a second

15:10

Grockbot video where I talk entirely

15:12

about unusual consumer use cases that

15:15

help with your personal life instead of

15:18

work tasks. If you want a video like

15:20

that, let me know in the comments

15:21

section down below. If you want to try

15:23

Grockbot, use the link at the top of the

15:25

description and in the pin comment. My

15:28

recommendation is to start with one bot.

15:30

Give the bot a clear name, a specific

15:32

role, and access to the websites and

15:34

tools it needs to help you best. Once

15:36

that works, add a second specialist,

15:38

then a third, then a fourth. Then don't

15:40

forget, you can add them to a group chat

15:42

and have them assign each other tasks.

15:44

That's when Grockbot starts to feel less

15:46

like another AI tool and more like a

15:49

team you can actually text and give work

15:51

to. Thank you to SpaceX AAI for

15:54

sponsoring this video and thank you for

15:56

watching. I'll see you in the next one.

15:57

Bye for now.

Interactive Summary
