Grok Bot

Heads up: Facebook Marketplace may be blocking agents

The poster had Grok Bot watching Facebook Marketplace for deals. He says that since October 16 every search in the agent's browser returns no listings, even after logging in again, while his phone shows them fine. He says others report the same, and Facebook hadn't commented when he posted.

Get roadside help abroad when you don't speak the language

The poster's car broke down on the Autobahn in Germany. Nobody nearby spoke English and the insurance hotline was in German. He asked Grok Bot to handle it, it found the right form and filled it in with his details, and help arrived about an hour later.

Trace where your phone number leaked and ask to be taken off the lists

Asked to do something about spam calls, Grok Bot worked out roughly when the poster's number was first used, tracked down the lists it had most likely leaked from, mostly insurance quote sites, and drafted a removal request to each one.

Gather the documents for a complicated tax filing and fill in a draft

The poster had a tax filing with overseas reporting, the kind that usually means paying a specialist. He says Grok Bot found the documents it needed in his email and bank accounts, worked out the requirements and filled in the forms. He reviewed everything and submitted it himself, and estimates it saved him over $1,000.

Get your old dentist to send your records to the new one

The day before his first visit to a new dentist, the poster asked Grok Bot by voice to find his old dentist in his email and ask them to send his records over. It found the new office's email online and sent the request, and the records were there in time, so he skipped repeat exams. He also uses it to chase overdue invoices.

Drop photos in a folder and get a priced Marketplace ad to approve

The poster set up a routine: he puts photos of things he wants to sell into a Google Drive folder, Grok Bot checks what they usually sell for, and it posts the ad to Facebook Marketplace once he approves it. He says he has sold 5 items this way.

He reports 5 items sold. He doesn't share prices, and we have not verified the sales.

Price out a big parts order across several stores

Ordering a full engine rebuild kit for his truck, the poster had Grok Bot put the parts into carts at several stores to compare the final prices. He says it found the best combination and saved about $300 on a $1,400 order.

Sell old stuff on Facebook Marketplace without answering every message

The poster gave Grok Bot two photos of an item from his camera roll. He says it wrote the listing, looked up the dimensions and extra photos, and followed up with about 15 interested people until one bought it. His only job was sending the buyer his address.

He says the sale made him $50. We have not verified this.

One person's agent-run online store got a first sale, after paid ads

The poster set up a group of Grok Bot agents to research a product, design packaging, build a Shopify store and draft Meta ads, approving each step himself. He says the first sale came within 24 hours of going live. He was also paying for ads at $50 a day and several other tools, so one sale says little about profit.

He reports a first sale. He doesn't share revenue or costs beyond the $50 a day ad test, and we have not verified any of it.

Plan the week's meals for a family of six

The poster built a meal prep helper on OpenClaw for his wife, who uses it every day to plan food for three adults and three kids. He has since made an improved version on Grok Bot and shared it.

Let an agent run a freelancer's inbox, but ask first on anything with a price

A freelancer let Grok Bot work in his inbox, calendar and website editor for 24 hours. He says it fixed a client's site, booked a kickoff call and chased an overdue invoice until it was paid. His one rule was that anything involving a price or a contract had to come to him first, and it stopped to ask before sending a retainer proposal.

He says the overdue invoice got paid and a client signed. We have not verified either.

Confirm client appointments two days ahead, with a weather check

A real estate photographer set up Grok Bot to check his calendar every morning for shoots two days away. It looks up the client, checks the forecast and emails a confirmation, and if rain looks likely it offers to reschedule instead. He shares his setup as a template in the post.

Have an agent ask your internet provider for a lower bill

The poster says Grok Bot negotiated with his internet provider and cut his bill by $28 a month without him doing anything. He doesn't say how it contacted the provider or what plan he ended up on.

He says he saves $28 a month. We have not verified this.

Two agents tracked the same Japan trip and came back $1,000 apart

The poster had Grok Bot and Muse watch the same Japan flight itinerary. Muse's price was more than $1,000 higher, and when he asked why, it said it had searched Duffel, a flight booking service, instead of Google Flights. A good reason to ask any agent where it looked.
