One-off jobs: “Summarize the top 5 posts about climate today”

💡 Try This Today
Think of something you check constantly—news, deals, memes, weather, whatever.
Create a Grok Task like:
“Send me the top 3 posts about AI startups every morning.”
Let it do its thing. You’ll get daily updates without having to lift a finger.
🛠️ How to Set Up a Grok Task (Step-by-Step)
Step 1: Open Grok
In the left-hand menu (on desktop) or bottom bar (on mobile), tap the Grok icon.
If you don’t see it, search for @grok or visit x.ai to access it directly.
At this time, the task feature is best used from the grok.com website and not the mobile app.
No Premium subscription required—you just need access to Grok.
Step 2: Start a Conversation
Just open the Grok chat and talk to it like any chatbot.
Example: “Create a daily task to send me the top 3 tech headlines every morning.”
You can ask it to track news, trends, prices, events, and more.
It will generate a response like this.

Step 3: Click “Edit” and Tell Grok What You Want
Grok will ask questions to clarify the task, like:
What should it track or summarize?
How often should it run?
What time of day do you want the results?
Be specific, like: “Send me trending AI tools from X posts every weekday at 8AM.”
You will see a dashboard like this to set your task details.

Step 4: Receive Updates Automatically
Grok will send your task results via:
Direct message on X
Email
Push notification (if enabled)
Or another method based on your X settings
You don’t have to ask again—it runs on schedule.
