Named persistent bots on a shared cloud computer — browser, terminal, connectors, skills, and routines
Grok Bot is xAI’s product for durable AI teammates. Each Bot has memory, files, and browser sessions that survive between turns. Bots sign into real apps, collaborate with each other, and interrupt you mainly for approvals. Pair that with Grok frontier models on the API for coding and agentic tool use. Workstation helps you adopt Grok Bot safely beside Claude and OpenAI agents — with clear ownership, connectors, and promotion controls.

Grok Bot: xAI's 24/7 AI Teammates
Grok Bot is not a chat thread that resets. It is a roster of named AI teammates that share one account-scoped cloud computer. They use apps the way people do — browser and computer use when APIs are missing — keep durable state, and coordinate with other Bots. Skills capture how work should be done; routines decide when it runs. Workstation positions Grok Bot for always-on operational lanes while Claude Code remains the deep coding agent on your repos.
Every Bot runs on the same user-scoped cloud machine. Files, browser sessions, and logins persist so handoffs do not restart from zero — treat credentials as shared across your Bots.
Skills encode steps, decision rules, and safety boundaries. Plugins and connectors attach CRM, inbox, Slack, GitHub, and other systems Bots need to finish real work.
Routines tell a Bot when to run — on a schedule or after supported events. Draft and reconcile first; require approval for send, purchase, delete, or production changes.
Builders can call Grok frontier models (including Grok 4.6-class reasoning and coding) via the xAI API for custom agents, while Grok Bot covers persistent teammate workflows.
Always-on teammates for sales, ops, research, and coordinated multi-bot work
Bots draft outreach, update CRM fields, and queue reviews while humans approve sends — keeping pipeline work moving overnight.
Routines assemble status packs, reconcile sheets, and ping owners only when exceptions need a decision.
Bots keep browser sessions and files across days, gather sources, and hand synthesised briefs to a reviewer Bot or human.
Use Grok Bot for office-admin and always-on lanes; keep Claude Code for deep repository work and PR review on your machines.
