Пълният препис на ReadMultiplex.com: The Brian Roemmele Interview On Why He Built GrokBot.Rocks

00:03:37.250 --> 00:03:39.789 that was more dream than reality. The dream ran 00:03:39.789 --> 00:03:42.210 ahead of the machine. The agents I built could 00:03:42.210 --> 00:03:44.250 follow rules, but they could not read the world. 00:03:44.530 --> 00:03:46.610 What changed is that the machine finally caught 00:03:46.610 --> 00:03:48.750 up to the dream. Language models can read the 00:03:48.750 --> 00:03:50.610 world. And once a machine can read the world, 00:03:50.710 --> 00:03:53.289 an agent stops being a curiosity and starts being 00:03:53.289 --> 00:03:56.449 an employee. Which brings us to the Zero Human 00:03:56.449 --> 00:03:58.810 Company. Tell us about that because I think it 00:03:58.810 --> 00:04:01.389 explains so much about why the directory matters. 00:04:01.889 --> 00:04:05.229 In January of 2026, I wrote about the Zero Human 00:04:05.229 --> 00:04:09.289 Company run by Just AI. It began with a 12 -year 00:04:09.289 --> 00:04:12.169 -old MacBook humming away on Linux in my garage. 00:04:12.530 --> 00:04:15.930 Grok was the CEO. Claude Code was the chief engineer. 00:04:16.209 --> 00:04:18.689 They held meetings, argued about budgets, and 00:04:18.689 --> 00:04:20.790 behaved like every startup you have ever seen, 00:04:20.870 --> 00:04:23.879 all on one old laptop. In a garage. Of course, 00:04:23.899 --> 00:04:26.720 it started in a garage. And watching over them 00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:29.480 were local AI regulators running the love equation. 00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:33.300 The idea from 1978 was standing guard over the 00:04:33.300 --> 00:04:36.759 idea from 1979. And what did running that company 00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:39.560 teach you? One employee, one job written down. 00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:43.120 A definition of done that another agent can check 00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:46.379 and align the employee may not cross. No send, 00:04:46.459 --> 00:04:48.879 no spend, no publish, no contact unless a human 00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:51.829 says yes. But the zero human company, the most 00:04:51.829 --> 00:04:53.649 valuable thing was never one brilliant agent. 00:04:53.790 --> 00:04:56.490 It was a shared record of what worked, the standing 00:04:56.490 --> 00:04:58.730 files, the evaluations, the tools left behind. 00:04:59.029 --> 00:05:01.910 Oh, I see where this is going. Directory of 10 00:05:01.910 --> 00:05:04.569 ,000 working recipes is that same record, open 00:05:04.569 --> 00:05:07.709 to everyone. That gives me goosebumps. Rockbot 00:05:07.709 --> 00:05:10.629 .rocks is the zero human company lesson handed 00:05:10.629 --> 00:05:13.350 to the whole world. That is exactly how I see 00:05:13.350 --> 00:05:15.509 it. Bots that share a record get smarter together. 00:05:15.769 --> 00:05:18.189 And just so nobody worries, the zero human company 00:05:18.189 --> 00:05:20.709 is still going, right? Let me be clear. I have 00:05:20.709 --> 00:05:23.470 not abandoned the Zero Human Company and I have 00:05:23.470 --> 00:05:25.769

not abandoned Zero Human Company at home. Both 00:05:25.769 --> 00:05:27.649 are alive and both are growing with my university 00:05:27.649 --> 00:05:30.649 partners. I handed the keys to two PhD students 00:05:30.649 --> 00:05:33.370 for a season. That is not walking away. It is 00:05:33.370 --> 00:05:36.250 how a company grows past its founder. Okay, so 00:05:36.250 --> 00:05:38.769 let us back up for a listener who is brand new. 00:05:39.029 --> 00:05:42.990 What is a grokbot in your words? You do not build 00:05:42.990 --> 00:05:45.490 a grokbot. You hire one. The difference is the 00:05:45.490 --> 00:05:47.970 whole thing. A bot is a teammate with a name 00:05:47.970 --> 00:05:50.290 and a job. It works on its own persistent computer 00:05:50.290 --> 00:05:52.389 with a browser, a file system, and a terminal. 00:05:52.649 --> 00:05:55.129 So tasks finish in your real tools instead of 00:05:55.129 --> 00:05:57.329 as chat drafts. Close your laptop and the work 00:05:57.329 --> 00:05:59.629 continues. And what is the piece that made a 00:05:59.629 --> 00:06:03.290 directory necessary? Templates. Any bot can be 00:06:03.290 --> 00:06:05.350 shared as a template. A public template shares 00:06:05.350 --> 00:06:08.129 only the recipe, the name, the description, the 00:06:08.129 --> 00:06:10.170 instructions, the skills, and the routines the 00:06:10.170 --> 00:06:12.189 creator chose to publish. When you add it, you 00:06:12.189 --> 00:06:14.389 get a fresh copy on your own account. You never 00:06:14.389 --> 00:06:17.050 get the creator's computer. logins files or history 00:06:17.050 --> 00:06:19.490 and they never get yours that one design choice 00:06:19.490 --> 00:06:22.089 turned every good idea into something anyone 00:06:22.089 --> 00:06:24.449 could copy in a click and people started sharing 00:06:24.449 --> 00:06:27.250 fast and you saw that early you called templates 00:06:27.250 --> 00:06:30.509 the new app store back in september i did crockbot 00:06:30.509 --> 00:06:33.029 had by far the largest selection of ready -made 00:06:33.029 --> 00:06:35.970 useful bots of any platform i had been studying 00:06:35.970 --> 00:06:38.949 the entire public list evaluating bots one by 00:06:38.949 --> 00:06:41.189 one and fortifying my own inventory of abilities 00:06:41.189 --> 00:06:44.410 it made no sense to keep that map to myself So 00:06:44.410 --> 00:06:46.490 you were already doing the homework and you just 00:06:46.490 --> 00:06:48.829 decided to publish your notes. That is a good 00:06:48.829 --> 00:06:51.629 way to say it. Let us take a tour because this 00:06:51.629 --> 00:06:54.129 is my favorite part. I want our listeners to 00:06:54.129 --> 00:06:56.209 know every single thing that is on this site. 00:06:56.389 --> 00:06:59.389 Start at the top. It pulls together every public 00:06:59.389 --> 00:07:02.370 rock bot template I can find, sorts them by what 00:07:02.370 --> 00:07:04.550 they do and explains each one in a sentence. 00:07:04.949 --> 00:07:07.670 Open any link to add that bot to your own rock 00:07:07.670 --> 00:07:10.750 bot. And at the very top. There is a search box. 00:07:10.990 --> 00:07:13.269 It says you can search every public Grok bot 00:07:13.269 --> 00:07:16.629 by name, by what it does, by creator or by category. 00:07:16.910 --> 00:07:19.769 The ultimate Grok bot directory has the fastest 00:07:19.769 --> 00:07:22.889 search engine for Grok bots you have ever seen. 00:07:23.050 --> 00:07:25.550 I strapped some rockets on this search to take 00:07:25.550 --> 00:07:28.629 you to orbit. It really is fast. I typed in my 00:07:28.629 --> 00:07:30.850 problem and the answers were just there. And 00:07:30.850 --> 00:07:33.329 then the categories, 32 of them on the site today. 00:07:33.870 --> 00:07:36.250 Privacy and scam protection. Email and inbox, 00:07:36.550 --> 00:07:39.110 money and personal finance, shopping, travel, 00:07:39.269 --> 00:07:41.790 food and recipes, health, family and kids, home 00:07:41.790 --> 00:07:45.110 and pets, cars. Tech help, legal and tax paperwork, 00:07:45.410 --> 00:07:48.110 real estate, jobs and careers, coaching, trading 00:07:48.110 --> 00:07:50.870 and investing, research and news, X and social 00:07:50.870 --> 00:07:53.670 media, writing and publishing, video and audio 00:07:53.670 --> 00:07:56.649 and design. Marketing, sales and lead generation, 00:07:56.990 --> 00:07:59.550 business operations, productivity, calendar and 00:07:59.550 --> 00:08:01.949 meetings, coding, sports, events, faith, fun 00:08:01.949 --> 00:08:04.689 and games and everything else. And one category 00:08:04.689 --> 00:08:08.550 I adore, Grok bot helpers, bots that build or 00:08:08.550 --> 00:08:12.029 manage other bots. Each category has a show all 00:08:12.029 --> 00:08:14.750 links so you can see the complete list. And every 00:08:14.750 --> 00:08:17.290 entry carries a one sentence description of the 00:08:17.290 --> 00:08:19.129 work it does and a link that adds the template 00:08:19.129 --> 00:08:22.029 to any Grok bot. Then there's the most popular 00:08:22.029 --> 00:08:25.170 list. Ranks by how often people saved and shared 00:08:25.170 --> 00:08:27.850 them on X plus bots featured in the bot templates 00:08:27.850 --> 00:08:31.470 gallery inside Grok bot. And voting. Tell us 00:08:31.470 --> 00:08:34.200 about the voting. Now with voting. Votes help 00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:36.940 surface the bots people actually use. It listens 00:08:36.940 --> 00:08:39.200 to you. The community can lift up the bots that 00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:41.620 actually deliver. And there's a section called 00:08:41.620 --> 00:08:44.500 From Brian Rommel, Your Own Bots. These are the 00:08:44.500 --> 00:08:47.120 22 Grok bots I built and shared. Each is free 00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:49.519 to add, and each one links to my post introducing 00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:52.379 it so you can read the story behind it. Can we 00:08:52.379 --> 00:08:54.700 name a few?

Because these are so good. There's 00:08:54.700 --> 00:08:57.460 Memory Transfer, which brings over what ChatGPT 00:08:57.460 --> 00:09:00.070 or Claude already knows about you. Mission Control, 00:09:00.190 --> 00:09:02.070 which watches every bot you run and rates each 00:09:02.070 --> 00:09:05.110 one red, yellow, or green. Call a Restaurant 00:09:05.110 --> 00:09:07.370 Reservation, which literally phones the restaurant 00:09:07.370 --> 00:09:11.090 for you. The Email Scam Filter. The Medical Bill 00:09:11.090 --> 00:09:14.570 Auditor. Room Inventory. Doc Merger. Grok Bot 00:09:14.570 --> 00:09:17.429 Command Line, which lets you run your bots from 00:09:17.429 --> 00:09:20.690 a flip phone. News Honestly Clean Slate for Credit 00:09:20.690 --> 00:09:24.190 Reports. The Librarian Bot. And my personal favorite, 00:09:24.370 --> 00:09:28.360 the Grok Bot DJ from Your Liked Songs. I brought 00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:30.740 back the college radio DJ I grew up listening 00:09:30.740 --> 00:09:33.399 to. My own library had grown to more than 91 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.940 ,000 songs and more than 7 ,000 of them had never 00:09:35.940 --> 00:09:39.080 been played. Not once. So I built a Grokbot DJ 00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:41.259 with one job. Dig through the music I already 00:09:41.259 --> 00:09:44.000 own and make it surprising again. I just love 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.039 that you build things because you personally 00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:48.840 needed them. That is always how it starts. And 00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:51.000 there is more detail on every one of them on 00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:53.960 my Grokbot's page at readmultiplex .com. How 00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:56.299 often does the directory change? Because the 00:09:56.299 --> 00:09:59.169 counts keep moving. List is refreshed twice a 00:09:59.169 --> 00:10:01.970 week on Monday and Thursday. New bots are added, 00:10:02.090 --> 00:10:04.230 broken links are removed, and the counts at the 00:10:04.230 --> 00:10:06.470 top of the page are refreshed. It is a living 00:10:06.470 --> 00:10:09.830 thing. Grokbot .rocks is a living thing. The 00:10:09.830 --> 00:10:12.309 growth has been staggering, and keeping up with 00:10:12.309 --> 00:10:14.730 it is your secret superpower. And if I built 00:10:14.730 --> 00:10:17.330 a bot and I want it listed? Email its name, its 00:10:17.330 --> 00:10:19.710 link, and a one -line description of what it 00:10:19.710 --> 00:10:21.710 does, and it can join the next update. The address 00:10:21.710 --> 00:10:25.450 is right on the site. BrianRomeel at mail .grokbot 00:10:25.450 --> 00:10:28.519 .com. Brian, you once said the hardest part of 00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:30.519 building this was not what people would guess. 00:10:31.019 --> 00:10:33.179 Candid take, the hardest part of building the 00:10:33.179 --> 00:10:36.279 directory was not the scoring. It was the finding 00:10:36.279 --> 00:10:39.360 about 900 public rock bots were never posted 00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:41.700 on X at all. So we tracked them down through 00:10:41.700 --> 00:10:45.340 mentions on other sites. Lesson, the best bots 00:10:45.340 --> 00:10:48.159 are often the quietest. The best bots are often 00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:51.100 the quietest. That should be on a t -shirt. Now, 00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:53.240 here's the part that blew my mind. And Brian, 00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:55.480 you said it is the part you're most excited about. 00:10:55.879 --> 00:10:58.600 Here's the part almost nobody saw coming. Grokbot 00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:01.340 .rocks is not only for people, it is for bots. 00:11:01.860 --> 00:11:04.059 Explain that, because I think a lot of people 00:11:04.059 --> 00:11:06.580 hear directory and picture a phone book. Every 00:11:06.580 --> 00:11:08.580 bot in the directory is a working recipe someone 00:11:08.580 --> 00:11:11.080 already built, instructions, skills, and routines. 00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:13.840 So I started telling people to point their Grokbot 00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:17.000 at Grokbot .rocks and have it get a PhD in the 00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:19.889 public Grokbots there. Ask it to study the skill 00:11:19.889 --> 00:11:22.309 sets that have been established and to incorporate 00:11:22.309 --> 00:11:25.730 the skills needed for your goals. No blank canvases, 00:11:25.730 --> 00:11:29.409 just pure grok bot learning. Make it part of 00:11:29.409 --> 00:11:31.590 the weekly program your bots run to stay healthy 00:11:31.590 --> 00:11:34.870 and fit. You called this a grok bot secret, right? 00:11:34.990 --> 00:11:38.509 On X. I shall present a grok bot secret. Come 00:11:38.509 --> 00:11:41.769 in close. Point your grok bot to grokbot .rocks. 00:11:42.090 --> 00:11:44.529 why ask it to understand the skill sets that 00:11:44.529 --> 00:11:46.309 have been established and to incorporate the 00:11:46.309 --> 00:11:48.690 skills needed for your goals this is a superpower 00:11:48.690 --> 00:11:52.250 and why is that such a big deal practically your 00:11:52.250 --> 00:11:55.129 bot does not have to discover alone and by trial 00:11:55.129 --> 00:11:57.529 and error the patterns that thousands of builders 00:11:57.529 --> 00:11:59.789 already found it can read them compare them and 00:11:59.789 --> 00:12:02.669 borrow the ones that fit in minutes a bot that 00:12:02.669 --> 00:12:05.629 learns from 10 000 recipes works faster uses 00:12:05.629 --> 00:12:08.370 less of your weekly usage on dead ends and makes 00:12:08.370 --> 00:12:10.210 fewer of the mistakes someone else already made 00:12:10.730 --> 00:12:13.029 And you put the exact prompt on the page, which 00:12:13.029 --> 00:12:15.529 I think is so generous. Here's the simple prompt 00:12:15.529 --> 00:12:17.809 I put on the directory page. Fill in your goals 00:12:17.809 --> 00:12:20.049 and paste it into your Grok bot. Go to grokbot 00:12:20.049 --> 00:12:23.990 .rocks, the every Grok bot directory. Study the 00:12:23.990 --> 00:12:26.789 skill sets the

Grok bots listed there have established 00:12:26.789 --> 00:12:29.029 my goals are, and then you describe your goals. 00:12:29.190 --> 00:12:32.269 Tell me which of those skills I need for my goals 00:12:32.269 --> 00:12:34.820 and which bots they come from. Then incorporate 00:12:34.820 --> 00:12:37.759 those skills into how you work for me. Show me 00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:40.299 the list before you add anything and never send 00:12:40.299 --> 00:12:42.720 post by or delete anything without asking me 00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:46.019 first. It is that simple. Do it. And there's 00:12:46.019 --> 00:12:48.779 even a machine readable index on the site. So 00:12:48.779 --> 00:12:51.320 a bot can read the complete category lists, not 00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:54.480 just the front page. Built for bots. I love it. 00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:56.960 And you have heard from companies using it this 00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:00.559 way. One technical lead at an electronics company 00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:02.889 told me that. Making it a reference platform 00:13:02.889 --> 00:13:04.889 for other bots is one of those things that makes 00:13:04.889 --> 00:13:07.149 so much sense only after someone says it. They 00:13:07.149 --> 00:13:09.149 run hundreds of Grok bots and now they have a 00:13:09.149 --> 00:13:11.110 place to help them gain knowledge that took them 00:13:11.110 --> 00:13:13.629 hours to build. Let me ask the responsible question 00:13:13.629 --> 00:13:16.429 because I know our listeners will. Is it safe 00:13:16.429 --> 00:13:19.409 to just add a bot from a list? One caution I 00:13:19.409 --> 00:13:21.789 always give because honesty is the other thread. 00:13:22.049 --> 00:13:24.850 Treat every community bot like software from 00:13:24.850 --> 00:13:27.409 a stranger. Read it before you add it. Being 00:13:27.409 --> 00:13:30.210 listed is not a safety review. And the site has 00:13:30.210 --> 00:13:33.710 a whole FAQ on this. It does. Basics, safety 00:13:33.710 --> 00:13:36.830 and privacy, what a bot can reach, cost and the 00:13:36.830 --> 00:13:39.389 free trial setup, using bots from the directory, 00:13:39.490 --> 00:13:41.889 getting listed and troubleshooting. Check what 00:13:41.889 --> 00:13:44.409 it does, which apps it wants and what its routines 00:13:44.409 --> 00:13:47.889 do. Connect only the apps a job needs and ask 00:13:47.889 --> 00:13:51.070 first rules for sending, posting and buying your 00:13:51.070 --> 00:13:53.789 approval cards. And ask first rules still apply 00:13:53.789 --> 00:13:56.620 to a bot you add. I really appreciate that you're 00:13:56.620 --> 00:13:58.960 so clear about it. It makes me trust the whole 00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:01.399 site more. That line goes all the way back to 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:04.320 the zero human company. No send, no spend, no 00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:06.840 publish, no contact unless a human says yes. 00:14:07.379 --> 00:14:11.159 Okay, free versus members. What is free and what 00:14:11.159 -->

00:14:13.740 do members get? The directory is free and always 00:14:13.740 --> 00:14:16.340 will be for any human or any bot. Members of 00:14:16.340 --> 00:14:18.840 readmultiplex .com get the part that takes decades 00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:20.820 to learn what to actually use and how to set 00:14:20.820 --> 00:14:23.639 it up. Walk us through the insider guide because 00:14:23.639 --> 00:14:26.669 there's a lot in there. My 12 top picks, each 00:14:26.669 --> 00:14:29.190 with a ready -to -use prompt, nine bot stacks 00:14:29.190 --> 00:14:31.350 in the order to add them from small business 00:14:31.350 --> 00:14:34.129 to privacy, a searchable library of Grok bot 00:14:34.129 --> 00:14:36.750 tips plus copy and paste prompts, build tips 00:14:36.750 --> 00:14:39.090 with a starter kit of templates. My newest bots, 00:14:39.389 --> 00:14:42.190 three days before X sees them, new bots worth 00:14:42.190 --> 00:14:44.809 a look, picked from each update. The Grok bot 00:14:44.809 --> 00:14:47.330 market report on what is growing and where the 00:14:47.330 --> 00:14:49.789 gaps are. A five -point safety checklist and 00:14:49.789 --> 00:14:52.950 25 % off custom bot work with me. And the growth 00:14:52.950 --> 00:14:55.789 dashboard. The GrokBot growth dashboard is one 00:14:55.789 --> 00:14:58.389 reason I'm popping out about this platform. I'm 00:14:58.389 --> 00:15:00.629 in a very unique position to have seen thousands 00:15:00.629 --> 00:15:03.009 of GrokBots and to have a feel for what folks 00:15:03.009 --> 00:15:05.389 have been building and using. We have not seen 00:15:05.389 --> 00:15:07.450 the tip of the iceberg. This is not just for 00:15:07.450 --> 00:15:09.549 you to discover new bots, but also to find areas 00:15:09.549 --> 00:15:11.669 where you can build. And there's a new members 00:15:11.669 --> 00:15:15.710 bot called GrokBot pays his own bill. Can't justify 00:15:15.710 --> 00:15:18.370 the cost of GrokBot. Have it help pay for itself. 00:15:18.889 --> 00:15:21.269 A fair question keeps coming up. If a Grokbot 00:15:21.269 --> 00:15:23.649 is this capable, can it earn back what it costs? 00:15:23.909 --> 00:15:26.509 So I built one with exactly that job, and I'm 00:15:26.509 --> 00:15:29.149 clear about it. No guarantees and no hype. Plus, 00:15:29.289 --> 00:15:32.629 there's the grokbot .rocks members forum. And 00:15:32.629 --> 00:15:34.909 Brian, a new member sent you a note that I think 00:15:34.909 --> 00:15:37.950 says it all. A new member wrote to me, I did 00:15:37.950 --> 00:15:40.149 not know what was possible with Grokbot until 00:15:40.149 --> 00:15:43.230 I started to look at your directory. The guides 00:15:43.230 --> 00:15:45.629 helped us set up 12 of our own Grokbots. That 00:15:45.629 --> 00:15:47.700 is the whole point. i want to zoom out for a 00:15:47.700 --> 00:15:50.879 second you wrote this gorgeous essay called the 00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:54.460 artist's canvas what is the big idea i have watched 00:15:54.460 --> 00:15:57.039 three revolutions reorder the way the world works 00:15:57.039 --> 00:16:00.360 the personal computer the internet and the iphone 00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:04.000 and each time i watched a cohort of smart folks 00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:06.279 left behind because they fell in love with the 00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:08.399 process of their work and not the results This 00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:10.440 is the Grokbot moment, and we are seeing this 00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:12.720 take place again. It is the VichyCalc moment 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:15.299 again, except the spreadsheet only recalculated 00:16:15.299 --> 00:16:17.820 numbers. A Grokbot recalculates the whole day. 00:16:17.940 --> 00:16:21.019 A Grokbot recalculates the whole day. That is 00:16:21.019 --> 00:16:23.240 a great line. And you're not saying people get 00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:27.220 replaced? Not on my watch. One person armed with 00:16:27.220 --> 00:16:31.009 a Grokbot army is powerful. But an entire company 00:16:31.009 --> 00:16:34.029 of employees armed with rock bot armies is unstoppable. 00:16:34.389 --> 00:16:37.230 You do not want to fire the generals overseeing 00:16:37.230 --> 00:16:39.629 those armies. You want to liberate them to do 00:16:39.629 --> 00:16:42.610 more. The manager stays in place overseeing the 00:16:42.610 --> 00:16:45.409 work and reviewing the outputs rather than performing 00:16:45.409 --> 00:16:47.889 the sequence that wants to find the day. The 00:16:47.889 --> 00:16:50.990 sequence is handed off. The judgment stays. And 00:16:50.990 --> 00:16:52.830 you're doing this with real companies right now? 00:16:53.029 --> 00:16:55.809 I'm not guessing. I'm doing this every day with 00:16:55.809 --> 00:16:58.669 my clients. One of my larger clients. a major 00:16:58.669 --> 00:17:01.690 publicly traded company, decided to go full Grokbot 00:17:01.690 --> 00:17:04.269 for every employee alongside the local AI models 00:17:04.269 --> 00:17:06.569 I built for them. Every command runs through 00:17:06.569 --> 00:17:09.029 a filter, red light not allowed, yellow light 00:17:09.029 --> 00:17:11.289 authorization required, green light approved 00:17:11.289 --> 00:17:14.289 with a central audit trail. No one loses a job 00:17:14.289 --> 00:17:16.589 and each employee now has in effect their own 00:17:16.589 --> 00:17:19.490 department. So where does the directory fit into 00:17:19.490 --> 00:17:22.650 that picture? I built Grokbot .rocks to help 00:17:22.650 --> 00:17:25.250 anyone start from where they are. The person 00:17:25.250 --> 00:17:27.329 who once spent the morning deciding which sequence 00:17:27.329 --> 00:17:29.769 to follow now spends the morning deciding which 00:17:29.769 --> 00:17:32.410 results to pursue. Okay, I have been waiting 00:17:32.410 --> 00:17:35.049 for this part all show. The brand new feature, 00:17:35.250 --> 00:17:38.569 need a bot, and the grokbot wanted board. She 00:17:38.569 --> 00:17:40.750 literally has a

sticky note on her screen that 00:17:40.750 --> 00:17:44.049 says, ask about need a bot. I do. Brian, tell 00:17:44.049 --> 00:17:46.930 us how this started. I have had 70 requests to 00:17:46.930 --> 00:17:49.809 build custom grokbots in the last 24 hours. It 00:17:49.809 --> 00:17:51.910 is too much. I cannot build that many with the 00:17:51.910 --> 00:17:54.279 quality I want. I'm going to give any Read Multiplex 00:17:54.279 --> 00:17:57.519 member the new leads for free. The Grokbot wanted 00:17:57.519 --> 00:17:59.980 form. So instead of being the bottleneck, you 00:17:59.980 --> 00:18:02.759 open the door. People request the bots they need 00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:06.220 on grokbot .rocks. A member can claim it. The 00:18:06.220 --> 00:18:08.359 client is theirs and they keep all the proceeds. 00:18:08.619 --> 00:18:11.619 No fees, no middleman. And I love the question 00:18:11.619 --> 00:18:14.619 you asked on X, say it. Are you a builder or 00:18:14.619 --> 00:18:17.380 are you just watching? That is the call to action 00:18:17.380 --> 00:18:19.660 right there. Let us walk through the request 00:18:19.660 --> 00:18:22.500 side. If I'm a small business owner and I cannot 00:18:22.500 --> 00:18:25.200 find a bot that does what I need, what do I do? 00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:28.279 Can't find a Grok bot. Tell us what you need. 00:18:28.420 --> 00:18:30.740 We will show you any bot that already does it 00:18:30.740 --> 00:18:32.880 or line it up for an expert builder. And the 00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:35.420 form is seven short steps. I went through it 00:18:35.420 --> 00:18:38.759 and it is so friendly. Step one, what should 00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:41.579 the bot do in one sentence and which kind of 00:18:41.579 --> 00:18:44.700 bot is it closest to? Step two, show us an example, 00:18:44.859 --> 00:18:47.440 a typical task you would hand it and what you 00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:50.859 want back. Step three, where does it work? Which 00:18:50.859 --> 00:18:53.200 services it uses, whether it should just read 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:56.140 and draft for you or send things itself, and 00:18:56.140 --> 00:18:59.380 whether it touches money. Step four, how often 00:18:59.380 --> 00:19:01.579 on a schedule or when something happens like 00:19:01.579 --> 00:19:04.779 a new email from a customer. Step five, rules 00:19:04.779 --> 00:19:07.440 and must -haves, including anything it must never 00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:11.279 do. Step six, who is it for and how soon you 00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:14.420 need it. And step seven, how to reach you and 00:19:14.420 --> 00:19:16.599 whether it is okay to share your contact with 00:19:16.599 --> 00:19:18.900 the member who builds it. And it checks your 00:19:18.900 --> 00:19:21.759 request against every bot already listed on rockbot 00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:24.000 .rock. So if something already does the job, 00:19:24.019 --> 00:19:26.319 you see it right away. There's also a privacy 00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:27.980 choice at the end, which I thought was really 00:19:27.980 --> 00:19:30.619 thoughtful. Once your bot is built, may we show 00:19:30.619 --> 00:19:33.059 it off? You choose? No, keep my bot private. 00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:35.579 Or yes, it is okay to list and show off my bot. 00:19:36.099 --> 00:19:39.720 Private requests are never listed. Now, the builder 00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:42.640 side. This is the part that makes me so happy 00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:45.180 because you're handing this over to members with 00:19:45.180 --> 00:19:47.930 amazing talents. We are building a cohort of 00:19:47.930 --> 00:19:50.150 read multiplex members ready to help you build 00:19:50.150 --> 00:19:53.009 your ultimate grok bots for businesses. Join 00:19:53.009 --> 00:19:56.690 us to be part of the grok bot builders group. 00:19:56.869 --> 00:19:59.430 How does it work for a builder? Every week people 00:19:59.430 --> 00:20:01.750 come to grokbot .rocks looking for a grok bot 00:20:01.750 --> 00:20:04.349 that does not exist yet. They describe what they 00:20:04.349 --> 00:20:07.289 need and those requests land in the grok bot 00:20:07.289 --> 00:20:10.269 wanted forum for members only ready to build. 00:20:10.369 --> 00:20:13.029 If you like building bots, this is a steady line 00:20:13.029 --> 00:20:15.349 of real people who already want what you can 00:20:15.349 --> 00:20:18.259 make. Browse the open requests. Each one is its 00:20:18.259 --> 00:20:20.759 own post. What the bot should do, an example, 00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:23.299 the services it needs, how often it runs, who 00:20:23.299 --> 00:20:25.759 it is for, and a rating of easy, bigger, or hard. 00:20:26.140 --> 00:20:29.359 Tap claim on one you want to build. The first 00:20:29.359 --> 00:20:32.019 member to claim it gets it. And the requester's 00:20:32.019 --> 00:20:34.599 contact goes only to that builder. You get the 00:20:34.599 --> 00:20:37.259 requester's contact sent privately to you and 00:20:37.259 --> 00:20:40.480 only you. It never appears in the forum. Reach 00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:42.880 out as soon as you can. They're waiting and a 00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:46.250 quick hello sets the tone. And if a builder realizes 00:20:46.250 --> 00:20:49.710 it is not a fit. Change your mind, tap, give 00:20:49.710 --> 00:20:52.609 it back anytime. The request opens up again right 00:20:52.609 --> 00:20:54.910 away for someone else. And when you have built 00:20:54.910 --> 00:20:57.609 it, you mark it as built. And the requester gets 00:20:57.609 --> 00:21:00.369 a note that their bot was delivered. Let us be 00:21:00.369 --> 00:21:02.569 really clear about the money because people asked 00:21:02.569 --> 00:21:05.329 you this on X. Requester pays if they want help. 00:21:05.390 --> 00:21:07.150 It is up to the builder and their requester to 00:21:07.150 --> 00:21:09.549 work out costs. It is free to list and free to 00:21:09.549 --> 00:21:12.390 get the lead. I charge zero dollars. Zero, no 00:21:12.390 -->

00:21:15.140 cut. Whatever you earn, you keep. All of it. 00:21:15.140 --> 00:21:17.980 No fee, no cut, no middleman. Once you claim, 00:21:18.059 --> 00:21:20.680 we step out completely. And to be fair to everybody 00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:23.420 listening, the builders are independent. Every 00:21:23.420 --> 00:21:26.339 builder is an independent person working for 00:21:26.339 --> 00:21:28.500 themselves. Builders judge their own skills. 00:21:28.880 --> 00:21:31.200 They are not my employees or my representatives, 00:21:31.420 --> 00:21:34.059 and we do not certify them. Any deal, price, 00:21:34.119 --> 00:21:36.940 or timeline is strictly between the requester 00:21:36.940 --> 00:21:39.759 and the builder. And there are house rules. Claim 00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:42.609 only what you plan to build now. One builder 00:21:42.609 --> 00:21:45.529 per request. Keep the requester's contact private 00:21:45.529 --> 00:21:48.049 and use it only for their request. Be straight 00:21:48.049 --> 00:21:50.970 about what a Grokbot can and cannot do. And never 00:21:50.970 --> 00:21:54.410 ask for passwords. Set up limited, revocable 00:21:54.410 --> 00:21:57.190 access instead. I just think this is so beautiful. 00:21:57.349 --> 00:21:59.990 Somebody has a need, somebody else has a gift, 00:22:00.009 --> 00:22:02.589 and you built the bridge. That is the spirit 00:22:02.589 --> 00:22:05.109 of it. Happy building. The next bot someone is 00:22:05.109 --> 00:22:07.809 waiting for might be yours. Brian, the obvious 00:22:07.809 --> 00:22:10.769 last question. What is next for Grokbot .rocks? 00:22:11.250 --> 00:22:13.369 Directory is just the beginning. I have plans 00:22:13.369 --> 00:22:16.450 for far more abilities soon. Oh, come on. You 00:22:16.450 --> 00:22:18.970 have to give us something. It will grow in abilities, 00:22:19.190 --> 00:22:21.690 not just size. I'm curating thousands more bots 00:22:21.690 --> 00:22:23.549 to put up on the site, and we are always looking 00:22:23.549 --> 00:22:26.289 for the quiet ones.
