  @poteto @billykyle Anything that solves the issues with loading sites. Gmail works well, but a significant amount of sites and services have it detected as a bot and won’t work. MCP integration to X feels like low hanging fruit too :)

  People have been asking about the kinds of things I’ve been utilizing Grok Bot for as an average joe. I’ve posted elsewhere, but I’ll park some of it here for context of what someone who can’t use it on work systems (restricted from doing so) sees as a real use case for AGI: - Search for and book plane international first class (lay flat) tickets utilizing best award redemptions. (It found them, and were now going to Japan) - Dispute a significant Lexis Nexis error with supporting documents that reside in my email. - Provide me a policy analysis hourly based on various publicly available congressional bills and documents - Go into my AT&T bill and average my family’s monthly usage across 14 devices and see if it can negotiate a lower rate or see if I’m being overcharged (it found a lower rate and grabbed it) - Clean and organize my gmail inbox of 40,000 emails, and unsubscribe me from spam Granted, most of this stuff is not going to be done on a regular basis. Particularly the email organization. But these are the types of things that new general users are going to want to do. And if they run out of compute while doing it in the first few hours, they’re going to be more unlikely to resubscribe.

  I used to think “agents in group chats” were a gimmick. Now I think the bigger problem is that too much strategy still lives in my head, and too many useful skills are too messy or sensitive to share cleanly. That’s what changed my mind. I’m starting to think a multiagent should become the default workspace for our growth team. Not because Slack or gmail are unusable. They’re just very good at holding messages, and not that good at holding work. What I actually want is one place where people can @ my Codex directly to ask positioning and strategy questions. A lot of the time the problem is not execution. It’s that people are operating on slightly different versions of what I want. For example, yesterday my growth team Mengyao and Alyssa pulled me into a meeting to ask what I meant by doing a small creator push for Okeight. Actually they could just ask my codex That kind of nuance gets lost constantly if the only interface is “ask Monica in a meeting.” And honestly, I also forget to sync strategy changes fast enough. Sometimes I change my mind on priorities, or realize an angle is wrong, or want to shift the goal slightly, and I just forget to tell everyone in time. Then different people are working off different versions of the strategy. Nothing is fully broken, but the team drifts. I also want the group to automatically turn the past week of work into a real weekly report. I’ve tried asking people to write trackers before, and it’s painful for everyone. Not everyone is trained to produce polished internal docs, and more importantly, they shouldn’t have to spend time doing that just to prove work happened. What I actually want from a weekly report is: - what worked - what didn’t - what content performed unusually well - whose priorities are off - where output quality is weak - which direction feels wrong That should be inferred from the work, not manually reconstructed afterward. Then there’s the skill-sharing problem. Some of the most useful internal skills are hard to share directly because they expose too much. Sometimes sharing a deep skill means exposing keys. Sometimes it means exposing messy internal setup. Sometimes it’s just too complicated to package cleanly. I built a pretty complex video editing skill recently, and it made this very obvious. In theory I want that capability to be reusable. In practice, sharing it cleanly is hard, and sharing it carelessly is dangerous. I also keep running into a simpler but equally stupid problem: the context already exists somewhere, but I forget to attach it. For example, Mengyao ran a Reddit reply test recently, and the doc from that experiment has a huge amount of signal in it. It could shape product direction, growth direction, and a lot of downstream decisions. But when I’m talking to Codex about strategy, I still sometimes forget to include it. That is such a stupid failure mode. I used to think “agents in group chats” were a toy. Now I increasingly think a lot of teams do not need a smarter agent first. They need a workspace where the agent is already sitting inside the context, absorbing strategy changes as they happen, and using the shared work without everyone manually re-explaining it. We’re going to test this internally for real. I’ll report back next month with what worked, what was annoying, and what turned out to be fake.

  the ecommerce teams heading into q4 with an unverified list aren't making a content problem. they're making a compliance problem. since november 2025 gmail, yahoo, and microsoft reject non-compliant bulk mail outright. not spam folder. outright. the list you built through the year is the list you're sending to in november. verify before q4. not during it. not after it underperforms.

  Sorry, Grok Bot looks like an unfinished toy. Asked my first Bot "Is there a correction option in Stripe?" It replied: "I'll fix it first, then reply." That was a question! Worse. It matched the customer to a different Gmail than the one she wrote from just because the name was similar. And started updating a live billing record. I typed "Stop." It says nothing changed. Good. Scoped access? A connector is on or off. For all bots. Approval gates? No option to say "I want to always approve this action". You can't isolate one Bot from the rest, either. Every Bot on your account shares one computer: same browser, same saved logins, same files. xAI's own docs: "Do not use separate Bots as a security boundary." So maybe a model or effort selector? Nope. It doesn't even know the exact model. Those $300 are not wasted. But I will use them working with Grok 4.6.

  @theozero I've got a fully specced out and operational second brain and personal assistant for work, it's been immensely valuable for me but I feel it's been that good because I could easily structure work around it. Life is not so much well structured. I want to do the filesystem based second brain approach rather than just let the agent consume with general access. The other issue here is of course security - what does the agent have access to? does it assume your own identity and access (to your Gmail or Google Drive) or does it have its own?

  Thirteen minutes, seven mcp servers, prices from $500 to $15,000, and not one second on what permissions you're asking the client for five of the seven connect to systems the client owns, not yours. that's the part worth slowing down on 2:28 — prospecting. "find me 50 med spas in phoenix with 5 to 20 employees, get me the owner's name and email." lead lists at $500 to $1,500 3:28 — shopify. full store build, $10k to $15k invoice 4:32 — klaviyo. build segments, create campaigns. those are writes into the email list a business earns from 6:12 — dataforseo and search console. audits at $500 to $1,500. read only, and the safest one on the list 7:16 — meta ads. "you're spending $4,000 a month and $1,200 of it is doing nothing. want me to fix that?" the fix is a write 8:20 — quickbooks. their books 9:28 — gmail, calendar, drive. drafts replies. $750 to $1,500 a month at 10:00 she asks the right question herself. every owner can already log into quickbooks and meta ads manager, so why do agencies bill millions her answer is judgment, and she's right. but the thing being sold isn't judgment, it's the client handing over write access to their books and their ad account thirteen minutes on what these servers can do, zero on what scope you asked for. that's the whole conversation nobody in this niche is having yet

  how to plan a full AI product without the chaos (wayfinder by @mattpocockuk ) in <30 Steps : 1. start with one concrete outcome, not a vague idea 2. weak: "build an AI sales tool". clear: "founder connects gmail, agent finds qualified convos, drafts follow ups, asks approval before sending" 3. that one sentence becomes the filter for every decision after it 4. most vibe coded builds skip this and start typing prompts immediately 5. 3 days in the database model has already changed twice 6. onboarding has 4 different half built versions 7. the agent has no clear boundaries on what it can and cant do 8. frontend is stuck waiting on backend decisions that were never made 9. claude ends up rewriting code it shipped yesterday 10. wayfinder's fix: work backwards from the destination and list every open question blocking it 11. for an AI product that means asking what data the agent can access 12. where does company context actually live 13. what can the agent execute without a human in the loop 14. how does a user inspect the agent's reasoning after the fact 15. how do retries and failures get handled 16. what counts toward paid usage 17. each open question becomes a ticket instead of a random note in a doc somewhere 18. some tickets block 5 others sitting behind them 19. example: you need to define agent access before you can design approvals, logs, or permissions 20. wayfinder surfaces which questions can actually be solved right now 21. that's the frontier. claude gets one clear next decision instead of grabbing the easiest feature in the repo 22. every ticket gets tagged HITL or AFK 23. HITL is founder judgement or a real business tradeoff, pricing lives here 24. AFK is research claude can run alone off docs, APIs, the codebase, oauth limits live here 25. one session resolves one decision and updates the map. nothing more 26. resolving gmail scopes usually reveals the approval rules 27. approval rules reveal the activity log 28. the activity log reveals the database model 29. claude keeps the reasoning attached to each decision so the next session isnt guessing why something was built that way 30. once the fog clears run /to-spec then /to-tickets and split remaining work into things agents can run in parallel Hope this helps !

  While 99% still dictate prompts into a chat window, I've been running this in production for 11 days. Clocked it: 30+ hours of weekly routine now off my plate On August 11, xAI (now under the SpaceXAI banner) shipped Grok Bot. Nobody caught the hype because beta was gated behind SuperGrok Heavy at $300/mo. On August 21 they quietly opened it up for SuperGrok Plus, Cursor Pro+ and rolled out a free trial. Window, before this gets crowded This is not a chatbot. It's an architecture: you give each agent a login to real services (Gmail, CRM, Notion, calendar), it gets its own cloud computer and runs 24/7 without you. Video above is a live runtime of my current stack: planner → scout → dedupe → cite check → writer → verify. 20 nodes, 340 edges, 631 dispatches per second. Every colored block is a separate agent with its own job How to set up before the weekend ends: Activate SuperGrok Plus or Cursor Pro+ (or start the free trial, it's capped on compute). App runs on Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone. Android still tagged "coming soon" Give your first Bot a login to ONE service only. Start with email, ROI shows up on day one Don't write a prompt. Write a task like you'd DM a coworker: "sweep the inbox every 2 hours, drafts for important ones go to me, spam to archive" Walk the Bot through the process once by hand. It saves the workflow as a routine and schedules it on its own. This isn't prompt engineering, it's delegation Spin up 3-5 Bots by role: sales, ops, research, inbox, calendar. They share context in group threads, one pulls the intel, another uses it immediately Five minutes to set up, from there your job is approval, not execution Full breakdown with my prompt templates per agent and beta bug list, in the article. Save it, Bloomberg dropped a launch note on day one but nobody has published the actual playbook yet

  @kr0der this is what i am doing. Cloudflare routing can either send the email to your worker and hook it to your server or just route it to existing email address e.g. gmail. and Send Email from Cloudflare is good too, you just need a worker paid.

  Guys, I think 1X is in deep trouble. I've been thinking about their "developer platform," and I don't think it makes much sense. I get the 10 second pitch. Do a Guy Kawasaki era Apple play. But this feels different. The original Apple was only $3,800 in today's dollars. And the original Mac only cost $7,700 in today's dollars. And both of those came right after recessions, whereas today we're heading into one. Each of these products was also a "bicycle for the mind." A pre-AGI robotic humanoid is a far cry from that -- in fact, it's not a bicycle, or even a force multiplier of any kind. It's essentially a just less-capable stunt double that eats electricity instead of food and can't heal itself. Which brings into question the nature of what actually is supposed to be "developed" in the first place and how those developers expect to be compensated... ie generalized skills? Speciality (SME) skills? Integrations with Gmail, et al? If that's the case... what does the $25,000 (my assumed final cost to consumers after taxes and other fees/accessories) ACTUALLY BUY YOU? Am I supposed to be willing to pay an extra monthly fee to access individual skills - like doing the laundry or loading the dishwasher, because they did a rev-share deal with some developers to teach it those skills? And what about loading the dishwasher? Additionally, the move feels both like a) a direct pivot away from retail customers, b) a tacit admission that there is no real consumer demand for humanoid robots, and c) an acknowledgement that the World Model doesn't really work at all yet. Because if it did, I'd expect a $25K humanoid to come with most of the the generalized skills of an average 8 year old human (I have one of those already pours his own nightly zyrtec, helps load the dishwasher, and helps with laundry btw). So in the end, I just don't know what developers can be expected to sell. My assumption, sadly, is that this isn't actually about developing anything -- it's about putting off as long as possible the moment everyone's actually afraid of: Actually going to market anything. Which brings me to my ultimate point: If you look carefully, I think you might notice a pattern here: Name an audience. Raise money on hype. Set a deadline for g2m. Build a prototype. Approach deadline. Announce a major breakthrough that unlocks a new audience. Raise even more money on more hype. Set a deadline for g2m. Build a prototype. Approach deadline... "I see what you mean," you might say. "But what's the problem?" To that, I might simply reply "You know what the problem is." Time to start thinking about doing something really different, before it's too late, if you ask me. But maybe this is exactly what they intended all along? PS: I think they could get funded. But imo, that would just create some very angry investors who end up paying $1B+ to see later what I already see now.

  The Pricing Page Says Everything. Except the Number. Everyone covered the Grok Bot expansion: Pro+ and Plus tiers, free trials, access for all. Yet most observers missed the real story. This isn't an access announcement. It is a case study in selling a percentage of a secret. The Numbers Behind the Hype • $60/month Pro+ — five checkmarks on the page, zero quantities • 48% of the weekly pool gone in under a day — a Pro+ user, day one • 14 hours — how long a $300 Heavy user's week lasted cleaning up Gmail • ~30 distinct users reporting 1–2 day burnouts in the first week • 1 documented spend cap: "There is no Grok Bot-specific spend cap yet" A weekly allowance with no published size is not a plan—it is a percentage of a secret. Three Takeaways from the Fine Print 1. "Usage Included" Is Doing All the Work Every subscription on earth sells a quantity. This page sells a vibe. Users only ever see a percent of an unstated pool, and they're publicly begging @cursor_ai and @xai for the number. When your customers reverse-engineer your pricing with spreadsheets—one measured ~247M tokens for the whole weekly pool—opacity isn't a bug in the pricing page. It is the pricing page. 2. You Pay for What the Filter Deletes Failed generations count. Server errors count. One user lost half a week to errors that returned nothing. Another went to sleep at 2% and woke at 100% with no clients open. In what other industry do you pay full price for the meal the kitchen refused to serve—then get told an audit view is "coming"? 3. The Funnel Got Wider. The Pool Did Not. Today's expansion added Pro+, Plus, and every Teams plan. What it didn't add: quota, spend controls, or a number on the page. Two subscriptions still don't stack—you get the max of two pools, never the sum. Widening the funnel into an opaque pool isn't growth. It's a queue for the same complaint. The Founder's Dilemma: The Number or the Vibe Every usage-based founder faces this fork: publish the allowance and let value do the selling, or hide the denominator and let the meter do the surprising. The winning pitch: "Here's exactly what a week of my usage buys." The losing pitch: "Weekly usage included. Amount: nowhere." If your pricing page needs an FAQ that says "not yet" on spend caps, you didn't ship a plan. You shipped a meter without a denominator—and that's not a limit, it's a mood. So—what's a subscription worth when the customer can't know what they bought? If you found this breakdown useful, follow for more insights on the shifting AI subscription landscape.

Create a form asking for: • Name • Email • Business • Required service • Budget range • Deadline • Main problem 2. Save every response in Google Sheets. 3. Send the response to AI. 4. Ask AI to return: • Lead category • Urgency • Best service • Missing information • Suggested next step • Personalized reply 5. Save the result beside the original lead. 6. Create a Gmail draft. Do not send it automatically at first. 7. Notify yourself when a qualified lead arrives. 8. Test the workflow using at least five different submissions before using it with real customers.

  steal this full system for launching faceless YouTube channels. six steps, in this exact order. save this for later. step one: niche selection most people pick a niche they're personally interested in. that's a bad approach, and it's why so many channels never get off the ground. the only question that matters is whether other people are already winning in that space. go find channels in the niche doing 100K to 1M views a month. if there are a few clearly working, that's your proof of concept. if you can't find any, the demand isn't proven and you should move on. huge emphasis on RPM here. some niches sit at $2 to $5 for every thousand views. others run $10 to $20 for the exact same view count. boring niches with high RPM are usually the play, even when they're the ones nobody wants to make videos about. step two: infrastructure this is the part everyone skips. it's also the part that ends channels. before you upload anything, every channel gets its own Gmail connected to nothing else you own, its own phone number for verification, its own dedicated IP (residential and static, not a rotating VPN), and its own anti detect browser profile. here's why it matters. YouTube doesn't just look at your content, it looks at what connects to what. same IP, same email, or same device across multiple channels and they can get linked together. one gets flagged and they could all go, which is a huge risk to take for no reason. it doesn't matter that the other channels did nothing wrong. the whole thing takes about 20 minutes per channel, so do it before you have anything worth losing. step three: branding these are rough guidelines rather than rules, but they matter more than people think. keep things consistent across everything you post. similar fonts, similar colors, similar thumbnail style. the goal is that people start recognizing your stuff in the feed before they even read the channel name. every video you post trains people to recognize the next one. that recognition is what turns a random viewer into a repeat viewer, and repeat viewers are the entire difference between a channel that plateaus and one that compounds. step four: format don't invent a format. steal one that's already working. find the outlier videos in your niche, the ones doing way more than the channel average, and break down every factor they share. length, pacing, structure, how they open, how they close. then rebuild it in your own way. nobody winning at this is inventing new formats. they're taking a proven one and adding their own twist, which is a far lower risk bet than trying to invent something from scratch and hoping an audience shows up for it. step five: retention packaging gets the click. retention decides whether YouTube pushes you after that. the first 30 seconds matter most, and if your graph nosedives before 0:30 the video could likely be dead. get to the point as soon as you can and don't waste any time getting there. then read the graph. a smooth slide down is normal and every video has it. a sharp cliff is a specific moment with a timestamp, so go rewatch that exact second. a spike means people rewound to see something again, which is your audience telling you exactly what they want more of. fix the moments, not the whole video. step six: scaling once something works, run it back. build a second channel with similar branding. or run the same concept in an adjacent niche. or take your existing channel and do the whole thing in another language. you already know the format works, so you're just pointing it somewhere new. just make sure step two is handled properly first. otherwise scaling turns into one flag taking everything down at once, and you've multiplied your risk instead of your income. the order matters as much as the steps. niche, then infrastructure, then branding, then format, then retention, then scaling. most people skip step two entirely and wonder why their portfolio disappeared in a week. bookmark this.
