SpaceXAI just released Grokbot, a direct

competitor to Hermes Agent and Open

Claw. It's powered by their brand new AI

model Grok 4.6, and it can do anything a

human being can do on a computer, while

also having its own computer in the

cloud. I've been testing it the last

week, and it is a really, really good

tool. But, the question becomes, should

you rip out Hermes and Open Claw to use

it? Well, in this video, you're about to

find out. Let's lock in and get into it.

So, this is Grokbot. This is what you're

going to be greeted with when you come

into it for the first time. You'll get

your first AI agent, which for me was

Slate. You get these agents with these

cool logos and profile pictures, which I

really enjoy. They also get their own

names as well, so they feel kind of

human-like, which I think is a really

cool way to approach this. The whole

point behind Grokbot is they want you to

feel like you have a team of co-workers

working for you. I think while Hermes

Agent and Open Claw go for this feel of

having like a chief of staff doing

things for you, Grok is really going for

here's a full team of different personas

doing work for you on their own

computers at all times. What we'll do

first here is I'll go through what's

special about Grokbot, what the

differentiators are, give you a demo,

then I'll talk about should you use this

over Hermes or not. But, starting off

what makes it different, again, is that

emphasis on multiple named agents doing

work for you at all times. The other big

differentiator here is each one has

their own computer. So, each one can

either use your local computer or have

their own computer that lives in the

cloud. And in fact, you can watch

everything it's doing on its cloud

computer in real time. Not only that,

you can click open here, and you can

actually go in and control their

computer for them. So, if you want to

come in here and you want to control

their browser and do anything inside

here, you can do that as well. This is a

fully operational cloud computer that

your agent and you have control over.

But, why would they want you to have

control over this computer? Why would

they want to give you such visibility?

What's the point? Well, two different

reasons. Number one, you can teach your

So, if you click teach a task, it starts

recording your screen. And so, if I

wanted to go now and show it how to read

my newsletters, if I wanted to go and

show it how to buy things off Amazon, I

can do that. Or, if I wanted to show it

how to find other AI YouTube videos, I

can teach it any workflow I want right

here through the browser. For you, maybe

you have some sort of process at work

where you have to create a special type

of presentation or a document that comes

from other types of information, you can

walk through that process here where you

click around, find the information,

build the document for it, hit the stop

button, and then now that agent, as you

can see, learns that process and learns

from that demonstration. So, it can

repeat it over and over and over again,

and turns it into a reusable skill. As

you can see here, it's now watching that

demonstration I did, and it will be able

to turn that into a skill. That's really

cool. Claude and ChatGPT added similar

features over last few weeks, but

neither is as intuitive as Grok is right

here. It's It's easy as just opening up

and clicking teach a task. Another

reason why having a built-in computer is

really, really cool is it allows you to

actually log in to accounts you want

your Grok bot to have access to. So, I

want Grok bot to edit my videos for me,

right? I don't have my own team like a

lot of other YouTubers out there. I

don't have editors or thumbnail build. I

do everything myself. But, now what I

want to do is actually have Grok bot try

to edit this for me. So I'm going to go

in and I'm actually going to log in for

Grok so that it can access my account

and edit my videos for me. And it's all

done in this really intuitive user

interface. Everything is really easy to

understand. When you need to log into

things or you need action, it's really

easy to understand and you can see the

computer at all times that it's

controlling so you can constantly

monitor what your agent is doing. Here's

another really amazing part about

GrokBot that I like a lot. Uh it is

really good at prompting you for

questions. If you teach it new skills,

if you ask it to do things, it does a

really good job of asking you further

clarifying questions so it can

understand what you're trying to do

more. So I showed it that screen

recording. It's like, "Okay, what should

we turn this skill into?" And then even

asked me if I want to do a dry run. It

is really really good at asking

questions, which has always been kind of

my favorite part of like using Claude.

The plan mode is excellent. The multiple

choice questions it gives you is

excellent. I always like that about it.

They bring that into here and they do it

in a really good level. Another really

awesome part about GrokBot is the agents

can communicate with each other. So if

you have a full fleet of agents working

for you, you can be like, "Hey, can you

work with Barry on this? Hey, can you

work with the other agent on this?" And

they'll share their knowledge and

context together to get really good

tasks done. Let me show you. So Barry's

been doing a bunch of content

repurposing for me. I'm going to say,

"Can you work with Barry to see which

content he has repurposed for me

already?" Just so they can be up to date

on the work each other has done. This is

really important to do if you decide to

create new agents so that they can share

context instantly rather than having to

copy and paste all the context over. So

as you can see here, it's saying it's

going to ping Barry, message Barry, ask

Barry, I'll bring back what he's already

repurposed as soon as he replies. Got

the message from Barry. As you can see,

you can look at their messages between

each other, which is really really cool.

See how they're talking to each each

And you can see, "Here's all my

repurposed inventory and it sends it

over. That's amazing. That saves you a

ton of time, right? You start a new

agent, maybe you have one agent that

responds to your business emails that

you just created and you have another

agent that's been doing a lot of other

business work for you and you want to

say, "Hey, get all the contacts from

this other agent, all the work you've

done for me on my business." Instead of

having to re-explain your entire

business over and over and over again to

your new agents, you can say, "Hey, talk

to my other agent, see what we've done

already." And they go and they text

message each other and get the contacts.

That is really cool and saves a lot of

time. That is a truly differentiated

feature than any other AI agent I've

seen out there. Speaking of context

sharing, there is an entire plugins

marketplace. So, you can see all these

different plugins that will allow you to

take in context from other apps, as

well. That is really, really nice to see

on a day one app. That is really

amazing. Cron jobs, they have them. They

are called routines. As you can see, I

already have a routine here for

repurposing uh my weekly videos into

newsletters. By the way, if you want to

keep up to date on these videos, make

amazing videos about the latest AI

tools. Also, I'm doing live bootcamp

about Grok Bot this week in the Vibe

Coding Academy. Make sure to check that

out down below, linked in the

description. Best decision you'll ever

make joining that community, best AI

community on planet Earth. But, the

routines are really amazing, as well.

You can decide when to run them. You can

see past runs. Give it specific

instructions. Test it out right now.

Standard cron job stuff. But, what I

really like about these routines is you

can go in to any of your agents and say,

"Hey, what routine should we make out of

this?" You can get like recommendations

on which routines to make and it'll

automatically spin them up and create

them for you. So, you don't have to sit

there and like manually build out each

and every routine. They have a mobile

app. The mobile app is excellent. It is

very, very simple and clean. I think

they hired a new team of designers over

there at SpaceX AI. They are excellent.

You go in, you can see the computers,

you can take over the computers from

mobile, which is really, really nice.

Even in mobile, come in here, control

the computer, log into accounts,

whatever you need to do. All the same

functionality as desktop. There really

is no difference whatsoever, but in

really clean, nice package. Makes

getting work done on the go really nice.

That is a must download as well. As for

how to use it and what you should do

when you first get into it, you should

use my favorite method for introducing

yourself to new agents, which is the

brain dump to reverse prompt

methodology. That is, you go in, you

tell it everything about yourself. As

you can see, that's what I did here. And

then you reverse prompt it. So, you tell

it all about yourself, then you go,

"Hey, what can you do for me?" And as

you can see here, it gives you a bunch

of really nice recommendations,

recommends doing repurposing for me,

asked me to connect my Gmail account,

it'll recommend tools to connect, it'll

recommend tasks it can do, it'll

recommend routines it can install. And

then you don't really have to do as much

thinking. You lean on the intelligence

of the agent to do these things. You

don't have to come up with every single

task yourself. It's like the number one

question I get all the time is like,

"Oh, but what do I even do with these

agents? What should I even do?" You

don't have to think about it. You lean

on the agent. You tell it about

yourself. You say, "Hey, what can you do

for me?" You'll get way more done that

way. So, to recap the differentiators

and the strengths of Grok bot, one, the

kind of multi agent approach is built

in. Neither Open Claw nor Hermes is

built for this type of multi agent

approach. It's as easy as clicking the

plus button. You have a brand new agent

with a brand new name, persona, all of

that, really, really easily. Two is the

built-in cloud computer. So, not only

can it control your computer like a

standard agent, but it is built in from

the ground up to have its own computer.

So, you can watch it do its work on your

screen. And you can also teach it

through that computer how to do your

daily tasks that you normally do on your

computer, so it can just offload that

for you. And then another strength that

multi-agent approach is the fact that

they can communicate with each other out

of the box standard. They're able to

coordinate and share context and

information, which will save you tons of

time. So the question becomes this, does

it replace Hermes and Openclaw? I will

say this, if you want an out-of-the-box

experience where you just open it up and

you immediately start getting

productivity done, no kind of tinkering,

model selection, harness selection, UI

setup necessary, then I would say Grok

Bot is the best. It just works out of

the box. There's no crazy setup needed.

There's no crashing. Right, that is

really the challenge with Hermes and

Openclaw is there's tons of setup and

tinkering need to be done. And if you're

not super technical, it becomes

challenging and it will crash a lot.

Grok Bot just works out of the box and

helps you out immediately. Now the

downside to that, the downside to not

being open source or tinkering, is that

this isn't going to be as customizable.

I can customize Hermes and Openclaw

literally any way I want. It's

completely open source. If I wanted to

make it powered by an open source model,

if I want to change how the UI works, if

I want to change something under the

hood, I can do that. You can't really do

that with Grok Bot. But for like 90% of

people who don't need to do those

things, who just want like a a fleet of

agents that do work for them, Grok Bot's

going to be perfect actually. Grok Bot

is going to be really really good. But

either way, no matter which persona you

are, I think you need to download it. I

think you need to use it. I think you

need to try it out to see if it fits

into your workflow. Because when it

comes to AI, the space moves so fast

that you just need to try every tool

that comes out. You need to test them

out to see what works for you. Some of

them will work for you, some of them

won't, but you got to at least give it a

try because if you find the ones that

fit into your workflow really, really

well, it will up your productivity a

ton. And for me, Grok Bot has been that.

It's excellent. Try it out. Just

released today. I think it's a slower

beta rollout. Think by Friday everyone

will be able to use it. It's Tuesday

right now. So, if you can't use it now,

keep trying over the next few days, but

they have started rolling out this beta

today. Let me know what you think. Is

this differentiated enough from Hermes

and Open Claw for you? Let me know down

below. I hope this was helpful.
