@bot introduced Grok Bot as AI teammates with their own computer
The official @bot account announced Grok Bot in early beta: each Bot gets its own computer, signs into the tools you already use, and comes back when something needs approval.
This is the launch post, not one workflow. It is the public source later official jobs hang off — sales outbound, inbox, CRM, engineering — so we keep the original permalink and explain the claim in plain English.

Nate Herk published “A Week of Grok Bot Lessons in 10 Mins” on X: nine hacks for turning a default Bot into a team. Elon quote-tweeted it the same morning and asked people what Bots they run.
On 19 Aug 2026 Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz) wrote that he hooked Grok Bot to his customer-support emails. The Bot can connect to Stripe via API for agentic operations — routine refunds as the example. The attached screenshot is Stripe’s agent auth screen: “Agent is now authorised to continue.”
