In less than 24 hours grok @bot has earned his keep by:
1. Finding me $300 in unclaimed funds from the state of CA
2. Discovering a $150 SW flight credit that I thought I misplaced
3. Helping to cut $50 in monthly subscriptions
4. Cleaned up my inbox (6k deletions, 40+ unsubs) so far
5. Did research and wrote a couple of technical articles
I’m not a programmer and have never used an agentic platform. Grok bot just works. It’s super user friendly and helpful out of the box.
