I made $1,900 in spiffs this month and @bot did most of the grunt work
I'm the F5 guy where I work. F5 has an SE incentive program that pays you for enablement work. $100 every time you train an internal sales team. $200 for every customer workshop you host.
I've been doing this job for 3 years now. Last Fiscal Year (Oct-Sep) I earned a total of $1,850 in these spiffs. I was doing it manually and just a little here a little there in between the rest of the things keeping me busy.
Last month I handed that part to Grok Bot. Here's what it did:
In September, I told it “find all the sales directors and solutions architect directors that work for my company using the directory in outlook & draft an email to them asking for 10-15 min on their next team call”
It found all 51 of them and left drafts in my outlook for me. I just proof read and hit send.
It kept score. Every call got logged with the date, the team, and how many people were invited.
It then wrote the claims. It wrote the email to my F5 channel SE explaining why each activity qualifies, with every calendar invite attached and named.
Since Oct 1:
-15 internal sales trainings with my company’s sales and SA teams
-2 customer workshops that came out of those calls (one of them was a 5-hour whiteboarding session)
-$1,900 in spiffs earned
The money is great. It’s also great that 15 sales teams now know exactly when to bring me in. That's already turning into customer meetings & more spiffs opportunities for me.
If there's work you keep putting off, like tracking, follow-ups, or getting paid for stuff you already did, that's where an AI assistant pays off the most for me and it’s worth $100 to try it out for a month
(It’s currently telling me who said yes but hasn’t sent an invite yet and went ahead and drafted a reply in outlook to bump it in their inbox reminding them to send me the meeting)
@bot is AWESOME and just funded itself for the next year.
My ticket id is T-H84101. I submitted this at 9:30am EST this morning and haven’t heard anything back yet besides the automated reply.
I have 3 separate Grok Bot subscriptions. All with separate logins, passwords, and subscription levels
1. Personal (X login, Premium X One subscription - $30/mo)
2. Work (email login, old Cursor $60/mo sub
3. Side Business (email login, Cursor Ultra $200/mo
Somehow, my Personal and Work accounts cross-pollinated this morning. My personal account’s usage resets on Wednesdays and my work account usage resets on Thursdays.
They now both reset on Wednesdays, usage went from 90% and 40% respectively to 100% across both, I cannot purchase or enable overage on either account, and when I log in with my work credentials, it signs me into my personal account on Grok.com and Cursor.com. Grok.com says my Work account is on the Free trial while Cursor.com tells me I’m on the Premium X One subscription $30/mo.
I signed up for the Premium X One sub on my iPhone. I cancelled it (in an attempt to re-start it) this morning on my personal account. Now my Personal AND Work accounts both say my subscription is cancelling and will both terminate on November 14th.
The only thing my accounts share in common is being signed in at the same time on the Grok Bot app so I can switch between them. How is it that two separate accounts with separate logins, separate billing info, and separate usage reset windows could become linked and locked together like this?
Both accounts have become unusable as the usage limit locked straight to 100% without allowing me to purchase or use overage.
@SpaceXSI @bot @cursor_ai @X
Please help me fix this. Grok Bot has been an incredible product to use. I’ve gotten 3 of my coworkers and 8 of my friends using Grok Bot that otherwise wouldn’t’ve tried it. One of them calls it “what He’s always hoped AI would be, but never was until now”.
This morning I was at:
90% usage on my personal account
40% usage on my work account
They both instantly shot up to 100% around 9:00am EST this morning
Update: I submitted a ticket in the Grok Bot app and the @bot team emailed me 3 minutes later telling me they’re working on it and have passed it along to a teammate who can help.
10/10 customer service
Try out this @bot prompt and let me know how it went for you.
Go through each of these and find relevant content from each that will help me be successful. Don’t limit the list by anything, just bring back everything that would prove beneficial and tell my why you chose it
- archive.org
- gutenberg.org
- openculture.com
- justwatch.com
- scholar.google.com
- core.ac.uk
- openlibrary.org
Then turn the best of it into a short knowledge base: key ideas, practical takeaways, and what to read first.
This is a template for one of my @bot’s that’s made more of a difference for me personally than the rest.
It watches & transcribes each week’s sermon from my church and creates a daily bible study that week based on what was preached. 3 days into using it and it’s both accurate and effective. The questions it’s come up with have opened up a lot of great conversations between my wife and I.
x.ai/bot/17cKyAahbg5_tZStyxr…
To quote one of my friends “This is what I’ve always hoped AI would be and never was.”
One of @bot’s best features is how easy it is to use. So far I’ve helped 2 co-workers and 5 of my friends get their Grok Bots up & running and it’s literally this simple:
Them: “okay, it’s downloaded, how do I set it up?”
Me: “tell it ‘you’re my CoS, I only talk to you, all the bots you create will talk to you & you will relay their info me if relevant. Silence the other bots so they don’t cause a bunch of noise. Look through everything you can see on my computer & apps and then you tell me which bots I should create and why’”
Once they get their setup started, I tell them to get their CoS an email & share it with me so I can have my CoS email them updates as I learn and implement new methods & workflows so that they can benefit from my learning without adding noise to their already busy days.
I have 3 @bot accounts
1. Personal
2. Work
3. Side-Business
I just setup each of my CoS bots for the three accounts a mail.grokbot.com email address allowing them to all communicate with each other. (Can’t link 3 cursor accounts to 1 slack)
Amazing addition by the team👍🏼

INCREDIBLE: For the First Time in American History A Christian Cross has been Engraved onto the Presidential Medal of Freedom in honor of Charlie Kirk.
Erika Kirk wanted to share this with you as a testament of Charlie’s powerful work advancing The Kingdom of Jesus Christ.

When Erika Kirk spoke the words on the man who killed her husband: “That man… that young man… I forgive him.” That moment deeply affected me. I have struggled for over 60 years to forgive the man who killed my Dad. I will say those words now as I type: “ I forgive the man who killed my father.”
Peace be with you all.

My dear American friends,
We British Christians would get excited when, once a year, Queen Elizabeth would make a mild but sincere reference to the love of Jesus Christ in her Christmas address.
In Charlie Kirks' Memorial service, watched by tens of millions, I just heard:
- Multiple clear presentations of the gospel from men like @robmccoyus and @DrFrankTurek with clear calls to repentance and faith
- Worship songs full of Scripture sung by tens of thousands live and millions at home
- Personal testimonies of lives transformed by the work of Christ and the witness of believers
- Demonstration and explanation of the value of marriage, child-rearing and family
- Calls to Romans 13 for the government to bear the sword for the protection of good and punishment of the wicked
- Declarations of spiritual warfare on the forces of evil and promises to endure no matter the cost
- Calls to be prophets and call the nation to repent
- More Scripture references and Bible readings than I can count
- And a widow publicly forgiving her husband's killer because Christ forgave his killers on the cross.
All of it done before, and by, the most powerful people in your nation and the world.
You guys should be on your knees thanking God for your country. It is a light to the world.
Never stop fighting for it.
I am thankful to be a contemporary of @charliekirk11 and @MrsErikaKirk. To have such a strong and public example of the Gospel of Jesus Christ lived and exampled in faith is a blessing to me.
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” -John 13:34-35

From everyday Americans to Cabinet Members—Charlie Kirk’s voice shaped a movement. Watch the message that inspired them all. ❤️⬇️

I was just told that we have more press interest in Sunday’s celebration of Charlie Kirk’s life and legacy than there is for the Super Bowl.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is about to be proclaimed to the largest audience in the history of humanity.
To God be the Glory.
