What they did

A UK business owner who says he is terrible at marketing paid £20 (British pounds) for Grok Bot, set up a small marketing and SEO bot team, and asked it to research trends and competitors and walk him through the best Meta ad campaign. He ran it at £6 a day. After 4 days he says it had added about £700 a month in recurring revenue (about £300 profit).

How it went

A step-by-step Meta ad plan you set up yourself on a small daily budget.

Worth knowing

Ask your bot for a security review of an email that passed every check

An email from [email protected] landed in a Tesla engineer's inbox. It passed SPF, DKIM and DMARC (the checks that confirm who sent an email) and showed the blue check, but something felt off, so he asked his Grok Bot to do a security review. It found a hidden phishing link, explained why every safety check had passed, and wrote a report to xAI with a proposed fix. He then had it add a security routine that checks his email for anything phishy going forward.
