What they did
A user had their Vibe Coder and CTO Grok Bot templates set up a personal AI that answers every incoming call. Spam and robocalls get hung up on, real callers leave a message, and they get a note in the Grok Bot app saying who called and why. It runs on Twilio and Cloudflare Workers with voice from the Grok API, and its first real call took 56 seconds for under 10 cents.

Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
Build me a personal call screener for my number [number]. Use [phone provider, e.g. Twilio] for the line, [hosting, e.g. Cloudflare Workers] for the logic and [voice API] for the voice. When a call comes in, greet the caller, ask who they are and why they're calling, and hang up politely on spam, robocalls and sales pitches. For real callers, take a short message. After each call, send me a note with the caller's name, number, reason and the message. Show me the plan and the monthly cost estimate before you set anything up, and log the cost of each call.
