xAI dropped Grok Bot. The pitch: persistent cloud VMs. Each bot gets its own browser, filesystem, and terminal — keeps running after you kill your laptop. Cloud desktop, but for agents. Uses your own credentials to log into tools. No API setup. Chains multi-step work end to end, only pings you when it needs approval. Bundled with Cursor Ultra. $200/month. SuperGrok Heavy also gets it. Beta right now, desktop + iOS already shipping. $200/mo is insane for something I can't even test. That said, from their demos it's basically the same thing OpenClaw and Hermes Agent do. I'm just running a multimodal model on a Linux desktop. Visual tasks come back clean more often than not. Works for me.
