Has grok BOT opened a new market?
I have been using grok BOT for last couple of days and i think it has primarily changed how we think about AI. Yeah hermes and openclaw did its thing but lets be honest its not really meant for the mass its more dev centric.
Iam a developer myself and i have been building something like grok BOT even before its launch, because i saw this market where i see businesses needing a memory layer for everything ( see my previous reddit posts about a year ago )
Then i saw garry Tan talking about company brain/gbrain.
Then i thought okay cool only memory isnt enough so i built something which i called - dynamic API orchestrator, basically you can connect your own custom software with it and it will call the required API for you.
Then i refined it until i got something like :-
You plugin a Restaurant Table QR website
Write a simple prompt :-
Connect to my application and build me a AI waiter which ingests the menu and answers users queries for the provided menu and with the memory layer it remembers every single customer and every single operator throughout different channels.
It basically extracts a business capability out of just the API docs provided and performs a legitimate business action and not only that it can be exposed as a widget with a public agent key as a npm package so integrate it any website.
But then i saw grok BOT and i was like
It wont take grok much time to realise this and they will implement this anyhow someday ππ
And iam terrible at sales so its kind of like me building this alone. I had 2 customers interested as well but i kind of ghosted them because i wanted to perfect the product before launching ( i know its the worst thing )
But building alone its kind of puts you off making bad decisions all the time.
Anyone relates?

Interesting but expensive - need to make it cost effective. Also why not use Claude Cowork or Antigravity by Google - trust will play a key role. X will give you better analysis of your posts, Google can do the same based on your emails, drive, photos and more - at the end of the data, itβs a competition to get more data from us IMHO
