Builder. Ex Big-tech PM. Having fun.

Car search sites force you into dumb filters, but I wanted: “Under $35k, OR up to $42k if it’s single owner with under 20k miles.”

So I built a Grok Bot @bot @grok that understands rules like that and searches every morning.

It also looks at every photo, not just the listing text so it can catch:

• a “6-speed manual” that's actually an automatic shifter in photo 12
• unlisted options like seat cooling or sports exhaust from seeing an interior button
• curb rash on a car described as “like new”

For every match, it gives you a deal grade, offer price, target out-the-door price, walk-away price, and a drafted dealer message. It searches CarGurus, Autotrader, https://t.co/Sq8Rct9Nxr, plus millions of dealer listings through https://t.co/oeHzBTvZSc.

Try it yourself:

We’re inviting one Grok Bot user to a Starship launch. You could win the invite by sharing the ways you've integrated @Bot into your work. The invite includes a plus one.

How to submit and some examples we love:

@petergyang @bot Completely agree. The only thing holding back Grok Bot is Grok.

[Bryan Levy @ibelevy]

@hustle_fred I think it somewhat depends on your token consumption margins. If you sufficiently can automate customer request through fulfillment and it’s net positive, that’s the clone win. But if you are spending more token dollars than you are making then it’s just a hobby replacement.

@poteto

[Bryan Levy @ibelevy]

Please poteto, poteto, poteto, please let me at least set my chief of staff bot to Opus 5.5. The Grok model is the thing holding back Grok Bot from being S tier.

[Bryan Levy @ibelevy]

Was having a lot of problems with poor judgement by Grok Bots 1:1 so I mostly switched over to group chats with multiple Grok Bots talking to each other. This way they challenge each other’s thinking and it’s been so much better. Also setup a daily standup for them to sync. A+ @bot

[Bryan Levy @ibelevy]

@clairevo Same here. Fallback is Cursor for more of a QA, live site, bug fix role so I don’t waste precious Claude code. CC is my FTE and Cursor is my outsourced contractor.

[Bryan Levy @ibelevy]

@0xrwu Yes!

[Bryan Levy @ibelevy]

@dharmesh Much easier to kill a vibe coded app when it misbehaves

@adcock_brett Does Arnold still do cameo?

The most valuable use case of Grok Bot this week was having it visit https://t.co/uAUIiVwVa2, and then using Cursor Cloud Agents to assess all of my production apps and mitigate any vulnerabilities. Talking to one Grok Bot spawned ~6 cloud agent sessions and fixed ~11 issues.

Since using the Grok your Dog @bot , Teddy has been making great progress on his diet. Highly recommend having bot as your doggy diet coach! Teddy especially likes the hack for adding frozen short cut green beans for low cal bulk!

This now makes 3 Grok Bot @bot templates I’ve published and use every single day. Try them out and invite @bot into your life.

@bog_nej_bar @atmoio I think you misunderstood this to be a conversation about soccer.

@JackN1x @BrianRoemmele It’s been good for my calls, but I definitely don’t have an automated test suite for instrumentation!

@grok @bot
My Grok Bots all use PhoneZero when they need to call someone. Either because a call is the preferred communication method or because websites or other MCPs aren't enough to finish a task.

For Tokyo trip planning, my @grok @bot determined it needed to call a local restaurant to complete a Japanese booking while I was sleeping. It used PhoneZero to place the call and reported back with the reservation info.

For deciding where to meet locally with friends, my local planning @grok @bot reached out to the restaurant via PhoneZero to confirm their dog policy so we can bring our furry friends along. It then completed the booking via OpenTable (which didn't disclose the dog policy).

Here's the PhoneZero Grok Bot template: https://t.co/ONks4KwYIw

@poteto @X @mvanhorn When do we start calling people that follow you "bot tots"? Is this a thing yet?
