47 articles in series
Forty-seven articles on xAI's Grok Bot — always-on agents with their own persistent cloud computer and browser, signing into your existing tools with your own credentials.

Grok Bot watches what you do, saves it as a routine, and refines it from your corrections. It's a genuinely different training loop than prompting — here's how it works.
Grok Bot and the Cost of Always-On: What a Second Bot Might Cost You
Grok Bot runs on its own usage quota, separate from your Grok or Cursor plan. Actual pricing for that quota isn't disclosed — here's what's known, and what every business should budget for anyway.
