Grok Bot Use Cases: 12 Jobs to Hand Your Bot (With Prompts)

Grok Bot is an agent with its own computer. It signs in to your apps, browses the web, runs jobs on a schedule, and keeps going after you close the laptop. That makes it good at the recurring work that eats a few hours every week. Here are twelve jobs to hand over, each with a prompt you can paste in.

For every job, decide how you hear about the result. A Bot reports in its chat and sends notifications, which covers most things. For the few results that cannot wait, give it a way to call you. That is what DoNotify does, and several prompts below use it.

Work

1. Inbox triage

The Bot sorts new mail, drafts replies and pulls out what needs you.

"Every weekday at 8am, sort my new email into reply, read later and ignore. Draft replies for the first group. If anything from my bank or a client looks urgent, call me and say who it is from."

2. Meeting prep

"Thirty minutes before each meeting on my calendar, write me a one-page brief on the people attending and our last email thread."

3. Meeting follow-ups

"After each meeting, draft a follow-up email listing what we agreed and who owns each item. Do not send it until I approve."

4. Lead research

"For each new lead in HubSpot, find the company's size and what they sell, add it to the record, and flag the ones that fit our ideal customer."

5. Support triage

"Every hour, read new support emails, tag each one by urgency and draft a first reply. If three customers report the same problem, call me."

6. Invoice chasing

"Every Friday, list invoices more than 30 days overdue and draft a polite reminder for each."

7. Incident summaries

"When PagerDuty fires, check recent deploys and open Linear issues, then summarize what probably broke. If customers are affected, call me."

8. Weekly research digest

"Every Monday, find what changed in our industry last week and write me five bullet points with links."

9. Social posts

"Each week, draft three posts from our newest blog articles. Do not publish anything until I approve it."

Personal

10. Bills and renewals

"Watch my email for bills and renewal notices. Add the due dates to my calendar, and call me the day before anything is due."

11. School and family email

"Flag every email from my kids' school. If it is about pickup or a sick child, call me right away."

12. Deal watching

Bots can keep an eye on listings for you, like a used bike or an apartment in your price range.

"Check Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist twice a day for a used road bike under $600 near me. Call me if a good one shows up."

Coming soon: let the Bot make the call

DoNotify is adding calls to businesses, where it holds the conversation for you. That opens up jobs like booking a dentist appointment or checking whether a shop has something in stock. It is rolling out soon, and you can ask for early access.

How to set up any of these

1. Connect the apps the job needs, like Gmail or your calendar. See the best Grok Bot plugins.
2. Run the job once in chat and correct what the Bot gets wrong.
3. Ask the Bot to save it as a skill, then put it on a routine. See Grok Bot skills.
4. For the "call me" part, connect DoNotify. Setup takes a few minutes on the AI agents page, and 14 calls are free.
