Grok Bot for small business
A straight answer for owners of 3–50 person companies: what Grok Bot can take off your plate, what it costs all-in, the risks, and the profile of business it fits.
What it takes off your plate
Inbox triage and drafts. Invoice intake. CRM hygiene and follow-up drafts. Supplier chasing. Review replies. Meeting prep. Weekly reports. The jobs a good ops assistant does, at 6am, for the price of tokens.
All-in cost, first year
Plan: $20–$300/mo depending on route. Usage: whatever you cap it at. Setup: fixed. Retainer: optional, from $490/mo. Compare with a part-time VA at $600–$1,500/mo: comparison.
Risks, honestly
Shared computer. No spend cap. Beta breakage. Prompt injection. All manageable, all requiring someone to manage them. Security checklist.
Fits
Agencies, e-commerce, professional services, B2B SaaS under 50 people, founders with a full inbox. Playbooks.
Doesn't fit
Regulated data on a shared computer without a review. Linux-only teams. Anyone who wants it to trade.
