I cloned Grok Bot in an afternoon.
Here's the full stack (and the business hiding inside it) Last week Grok Bot cut everyone's usage limits. I run 8 bots on it. A chief of staff, a Skool moderator, a Slack drafter, a YouTube comment bot, a Bookface outreach bot, and a few more. Overnight, all of them were rationed. So instead of waiting for xAI to fix it, I tried something different: I had my agents reverse engineer Grok Bot and build me my own. It worked. I recorded the whole thing, every prompt, start to finish. Video is below. Here's the breakdown. What actually happened 1. The design. I pointed Claude Opus 5.5 at the real Grok Bot app on my Mac and told it to click through every screen with computer use, then rebuild it in Paper MCP. About 30 minutes later I had a near pixel-perfect replica: same screens, same icons, same layout. 2. The backend. In parallel, a second agent ran the Reverse Engineer Anything repo (443K stars on GitHub) on a Linux cloud computer and mapped how Grok Bot works: the bots, the API, the interface. 3. The build. The build agent read the design thread, read the architecture, and built it. A couple of hours from my first prompt, I had a working clone. Google sign-in, Grok 4.7 behind every bot, app connectors, routines, and each bot on its own cloud computer that I can take over and control. While all that ran, a third agent on a GPU box edited the video you're about to watch. My MacBook never got warm. The stack - T3 Code: where the agents live. One workspace running Claude and Codex across 5 machines: my MacBook plus Linux, GPU, Mac mini and Windows cloud computers. - Reverse Engineer Anything: maps how an existing app works. - Paper MCP: design tool for agents. This is what nailed the UI. - xAI API: the models, voice, image and video, files, X search. Most of what Grok Bot is. - Composio: sign-in and every app connector (Gmail, Slack, all of it). - Orgo: a computer for every bot. (Yes, that's my company. It's also the piece xAI doesn't give you.)

Nick, was this built different than your bops? Which one is "better"?
how to sell a custom grok bot to a boring business for $25k
just dropped the episode with greg isenberg. if you only watch one video from me, make it this one. the idea: take a personal agent platform like grok bot, niche it down to one industry, and install it into a business as a full team of agents. each agent gets its own computer, email and phone number. the owner can text it, call it or message it in slack. i built my version (bops) in one weekend. 36 hours, one long thread in t3 code with opus 5.5. it's open source, so you can fork it and skip the weekend. everything below is covered in under an hour. the build process: 1. start with research so the model understands what you're building 2. design it all in paper before writing code. ask for 3-4 variations, then merge the best parts 3. point your coding agent at the docs and API reference for every tool 4. screenshot bugs and UI you like, then feed them back in the stack 1. orgo for the computers 2. agentmail for email 3. agentphone for phone numbers 4. composio for app connectors 5. host on orgo, fly or vercel the offer 1. $25k upfront: half at signing, half after a 30 day implementation 2. optional $3k/mo to maintain it. to the owner, that's like hiring a team of employees at $12 an hour 3. they own the system, so they never feel stuck on a retainer 4. add a free website redesign guarantee results you know you can hit, like faster replies to leads, or refund the month you can also go one-to-many: build it for a single industry and sell it as a product. niche pricing can run 10-20x what grok bot charges. getting leads 1. don't pick a niche yet 2. go through your phone and call 50 people who run a business or know someone who does 3. do the first one free for a case study, and ask for 3 intros to their peers in return sit with that first client, watch how they work, and build agents for what you see you never sell cold this way. every call comes through someone who already knows you. 🎥 video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67BmkptgTms

@Vibhor Naryani I gave it $25 and it blew through $10 of it just having conversations back and forth asking how I might set it up. So I can't even imagine if you actually had other agents what this would cost you running it through BOPS.

@Nick Vasilescu Hey Nick, I bought $25 worth of credits to test out BOPs, and it absolutely ate those in like 15 minutes. Is that because of the markup that you guys are putting on there? If I was to rebuild this as a custom variation and used Codex keys, would I be experiencing about the same costs? Because I'm on the $100 plan for both Codex and Anthropic, and I very seldom hit my token limit. So, I guess what I'm trying to ask is I absolutely love this idea of BOPs and customizing it, but I'm trying to figure out how I can create/use it with less cost.
