What changed in Grok Bot 1.0
xAI describes three main improvements since the beta. Bots are now “multiplayer” teammates, they are proactive, and they are more capable at everyday tasks. The changelog lists version 1.0.1 on November 11, 2026, which also includes 1.0.0.
| Area | What Grok Bot 1.0 adds |
|---|---|
| Team use | Share a Team Bot with specific people or groups; it learns from everyone it works with |
| Where Bots work | Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet, Zoom or Microsoft Teams calls |
| Initiative | Monitors projects, follows up on unfinished tasks and offers to take on work |
| Team learning | What teammates teach waits under Review learnings until the owner or a Manager approves it |
| Output | Better documents and decks, plus interactive Pages the Bot can keep updated |
According to the announcement, a Bot can follow a discussion with several people, understand who is involved, and add relevant information. In xAI’s product launch example, a Bot notices that new customer research points to a different message, raises it, and then coordinates with another Bot to update campaign materials once the team agrees.
xAI also says Bots handle browsers and sign-ins more reliably, connect better to Gmail, Google Calendar and GitHub, and use fewer resources per task. New settings and analytics show what a Team Bot knows and how the team uses it.
Plans, prices and usage
xAI’s pricing documentation lists Grok Bot as part of The X Subscription. The table below uses those list prices, which exclude sales tax.
| Plan | Monthly price | Grok Bot | Included usage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Not included | Limited |
| Plus | $8 | Not included | Base |
| Premium | $30 | Included | 4x |
| Super | $100 | Included | 15x |
| Ultra | $200 | Included | 50x |
Team plans cost the same per seat: $30 for Premium, $100 for Super and $200 for Ultra, and a team can mix seat tiers. Bot usage draws from each seat’s shared weekly usage pool rather than a separate pool. Per the announcement, Team Bots are available on Team and Enterprise plans, and Meetings on Team, Enterprise and Ultra plans. For a wider price breakdown, see our answer on how much Grok costs.
How to add a Bot to a meeting
The meetings documentation gives these steps:
- Paste a Google Meet, Zoom or Microsoft Teams link into your chat with the Bot and ask it to join and take notes.
- Approve the card when the Bot asks.
- When the meeting starts, the host admits the Bot. It appears as the Bot’s name followed by “transcribing”.
- During the call, address the Bot by name in the meeting chat to ask it something.
- After the call, read the summary and action items in the Bot’s chat, or ask it for the transcript later.
In the Bot’s details, Upcoming lists scheduled meetings. Disable Interactivity keeps the Bot taking notes without answering, and Quit removes it from a call. A Bot that follows your calendar can also join scheduled meetings on its own. The Bot will not share your credentials in a meeting.
How to bring a Team Bot into Microsoft Teams
The Microsoft Teams documentation requires a published Team Bot, owner or Manager rights, and an admin who has enabled Microsoft Teams for your Cursor team.
- A team admin chooses Enable next to Enable Microsoft Teams on the Grok Bot page of the team dashboard and signs in with a Microsoft Teams or Global administrator account.
- The Bot’s owner or a Manager opens the Bot’s details and chooses Connect Microsoft Teams, then signs in with Microsoft.
- A Microsoft Teams admin approves the Bot under Teams apps > Manage apps > Pending approval. Microsoft does not notify them, so send the link the dialog shows.
- Choose Check again. Setup can take up to an hour and finishes on its own.
- Each teammate links their Microsoft account from the Link Account card or under Settings > General > Team Bots.
In Teams, the Bot answers in channels, group chats and direct messages, acts for the person who asked, uses that person’s usage, and asks before risky actions.
New sharing and review controls
The November 11 changelog adds several controls for teams:
- Review learnings. What teammates teach a Team Bot waits until the owner or a Manager approves it.
- Bot sharing. Team admins can limit who shares Bots.
- Shared connectors. Owners and Managers can share their own app login once a team admin turns on Allow Shared Logins.
- Voice speed. A Speed slider from 0.5x to 2x sits in each Bot’s Voice menu.
Workflows for power users
- Launch coordination. Share one Team Bot with a launch group, add it to the planning channel, and let it flag deadlines and prepare materials, as xAI’s example describes.
- Meeting follow-through. Connect your calendar so the Bot joins recurring meetings, then ask it to turn action items into tasks or a Page.
- Controlled learning. Keep Review learnings in your routine so only approved team knowledge shapes the Bot.
- Shared accounts with care. Use shared connectors only for tools where everyone acting through one Manager’s account is acceptable.

Limitations
- Plus and Free plans do not include Grok Bot.
- Team Bots require Team or Enterprise; Meetings require Team, Enterprise or Ultra.
- On Enterprise, admins must turn on Meetings; when it is off, Bots cannot join or read meetings.
- Microsoft Teams setup needs approval from both a Cursor team admin and a Microsoft Teams admin.
- Usage comes from the same weekly pool as Grok models, so heavy Bot use can reduce what is left for other work.

Grok Bot 1.0 is the first general release of xAI’s Grok Bot AI teammates, launched on November 11, 2026 after a beta. It adds shared Team Bots that learn from the whole team, Bots that offer to take on work without being asked, and better browser use, documents and presentations.
