Automations in Grok

Describe a job once and Grok runs it on a schedule or when an email arrives, then reports back.

  • The instructions read like a normal chat message: describe the job, attach files for context, add connectors and skills, and pick a mode
  • Runs on a schedule, or on a trigger such as an email arriving
  • Every run is a fresh request: same instructions, current data
  • Notifications can come by email, in the app, or both
  • Available on grok.com and in the Grok apps for iOS and Android

Recurring work you would otherwise redo by hand every week
