Grok Bot adds its own email inbox for signups and business contacts

Your move: Rolling out to users; team admins must enable the inbox feature

Grok Bot's October 9 announcement says a Bot can now have its own email address to sign up for services, contact businesses, or schedule time with someone. A follow-up in the same thread says the feature is rolling out to users and that they can claim an inbox by asking their Bot or tagging @bot on X. Team admins must enable it for their team.

Why it matters

An inbox of its own lets a Bot handle email for a task without routing those messages through your personal inbox. This is separate from the October 7 update for formatted email and Gmail spam recovery, which uses a connected Gmail account. The rollout note gives the team-admin condition, but does not specify plan eligibility, pricing, sending limits, or whether every outgoing message requires review. Check those conditions before relying on the inbox for sensitive work.
