x.ai launched Grok Bot, a beta service where AI assistants run on their own cloud computer, sign into everyday work tools and carry tasks through to completion, checking back only when approval is needed. People message a bot like a colleague, and can show it a task once so it repeats the steps later. It is available now to three paid subscription tiers on desktop and iOS, with enterprise access by waitlist.

What changed

Agents generally needed workflows to be built in advance and could not sign into apps and finish work in the tool itself.

What it unlocks

Handing a multi-step job to an agent that signs into existing apps on its own cloud computer, keeps working while the person is away, and returns only for approval.

What you need to act on it

  • a SuperGrok Heavy, Cursor Ultra or Cursor Teams Premium subscription
  • desktop or iOS app
  • enterprise access by waitlist
