Grok Bot

Grok Bot on Mac can now use Messages, Mail, Notes, Reminders, Calendar, Location and Contacts, according to the app's @bot account on X on November 12, 2026. 9to5Mac reports the app reached version 1.0 this month, leaving beta.

OpenAI announced an automatic router that sends Dots tasks to the smaller GPT-6.1 Terra model rather than the larger GPT-6 Astra, to reduce compute use. Elon Musk said this week that Grok Bot's running costs are "unsustainably high relative to revenue." Fortune reports that compute supply is the main constraint on personal AI agents.

Elon Musk confirmed he deliberately reduced Grok Bot usage allowances, saying the cost of serving the AI agent was "unsustainably high relative to revenue." Users report hitting 100% of their caps days before reset, and one Reddit thread called the change an "indirect rug pull."

Grok Bot, the agent available on iPhone, iPad and Mac, now has its own email address ending in @mail.grokbot.com. According to the announcement on X, the agent can use it to sign up for services, contact businesses and schedule time with people. The rollout began October 9, 2026.

Grok Bot, SpaceXAI's consumer AI agent app, now uses Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 for intelligence instead of SpaceXAI/Cursor models, according to a 9to5Mac report dated October 7, 2026. Pricing, context window and benchmark details were not disclosed.

xAI's Grok Bot lets users connect agents to services like X, Google Calendar, and Freshdesk through a simple browser login instead of API keys or MCP configuration. A five-day hands-on report compares it to OpenClaw 2.0, released the same week, framing the two as a managed agent computer versus a user-owned agent platform.

xAI has expanded its Grok Bot AI agent app from iPhone and Mac to iPad and Android, while slashing the price from $300/month to compatibility with the $20/month Cursor Pro plan. Enterprise customers using Grok or Cursor get free access for a limited time.
