It does it every day, on its own computer. We set it up and keep it running. $2,500/month. Astra AI installs and manages a Grokbot AI employee for a business for $2,500 a month — Each named Grokbot runs on its own always-on cloud computer with a browser, file access, and computer-use — it can click, type, and run terminal commands the way a person would, and it keeps running with your laptop closed. We handle setup, configuration, monitoring, and incident response; the client gets a working AI employee without owning the operational burden of running it themselves. ## Six jobs it takes off your plate - **Works all night long** — It runs on its own computer that never turns off, so your inbox and reports are done before you wake up. - **Learns by watching you** — Record yourself doing a task one time, and it copies exactly what you did from then on. - **Uses your programs like you do** — It opens a browser, clicks buttons, and types, the same way a person sitting at the keyboard would. - **Runs a small team for you** — One agent leads a few helper agents, and they talk to each other to get a job done. - **Jumps in when something happens** — It can start work the moment something happens, like a new message, not just at a set time. - **Follows you on your phone** — Check on it, or even take over, from your phone, wherever you are. ## A day with it - **7:02am** — Your briefing is already sitting in your messages. - **11:30am** — It answers a question someone asked overnight. - **3:00pm** — A new message comes in, and it starts the job on its own. - **11:00pm** — It keeps working while you are asleep. ## What's included ($2,500/month) - Initial teach-by-demo setup for your first workflows - Multi-Bot / "chief of staff" hierarchy design - Access, network-policy, and audit-log configuration - Weekly monitoring for failed runs and drifted threads - A monthly review as xAI ships new Grokbot features - Direct incident response when something breaks ## How it starts 1. **Discovery call** — You talk first — what the work looks like now, and what made you start looking at this. We map the 2-3 workflows worth automating and who needs to approve agent access. 2. **Setup** — We configure your Grokbot account, access controls, and network policy, then teach the first workflows by demo. 3. **Verification** — We run the agent workforce alongside your team for the first two weeks and fix anything that misfires. 4. **Ongoing management** — Weekly monitoring, a monthly review call, and direct support for anything that breaks. ## FAQ **Isn't Grokbot just install-and-go? Why do I need you?** Getting an account is fast. Getting it configured correctly — the workflows taught right the first time, access controls set up, and someone watching for the failure modes a brand-new product hasn't hit yet — is the actual work. That's what the monthly retainer buys: someone who already knows where this specific runtime breaks. **What happens if I want to leave?** You can cancel the retainer any time. Because this runtime is a vendor-managed cloud product, your account and its data live with that vendor, not with us — cancelling us just stops the management, monitoring, and support; it doesn't touch your underlying account. **What's actually included for $2,500/month?** Installation and initial configuration, the specific setup work listed above for this product, ongoing monitoring, incident response when something breaks, and a monthly review where we tune what your agent workforce is doing. It is a managed service, not a one-time setup fee — see "What you get monthly" above for the full list. **Who owns the agent and its data?** You own your account with the vendor and everything in it. We operate and manage that account on your behalf under the access you grant us — we don't own the underlying product or your data. **Can I run Grokbot on my own servers instead?** No — Grokbot is xAI's managed cloud product with no self-hosting option. If keeping everything on your own infrastructure matters to you, OpenClaw or Hermes are the better fit; we're happy to talk through which makes sense. **What does Grokbot cost on top of your $2,500/mo?** Grokbot access is billed by xAI directly, separately from our management fee, and its pricing has changed since launch — we'll walk you through current plan options on the discovery call rather than quote a number here that could be stale by the time you read it. **Is Grokbot proven for a business like mine?** Grokbot is genuinely new — it launched in beta in August 2026 and enterprise controls shipped a few weeks after that. It is capable today, but independent, real-world reliability data beyond the vendor's own demos is still thin. That is exactly why we manage it: someone should be watching it closely while it matures, not you. ## Facts - Vendor: xAI (xAI-managed cloud product) - Self-hostable: no — Runs on xAI's managed cloud — there is no self-hosted option for Grokbot. - Price: $2,500/month, cancel any time - Provider: Astra AI (https://www.m-i-n-d.ai)
