An operating team for fast-moving founders
Start simply. Keep the freedom to go further.
Simple to start. Room to go deeper.
Describe a job or start from a Starter Kit. Connect the accounts it needs and launch. When a job needs more, open the native controls to adjust instructions, tools, skills, schedules, files or supported settings.
Reuse a working setup through a clean clone. Review its seed files and reconnect accounts; the original worker’s private history and sessions are not copied. You do not need to configure every option before starting.
SourceHermes and OpenClaw. On the same team.
Choose the agent software, often called a harness, that fits each role. Run Hermes and OpenClaw workers at the same time, with different supported models, tools and skills. You do not have to choose one setup for your whole startup.
A harness is the software that lets an AI plan, use tools and keep working. Each worker keeps its native interface and settings. Available integrations depend on its harness and version.
SourceA working environment for every worker
Give your developer, growth agent and operations agent their own persistent files, memory and browser context. Connect the accounts each needs, then let them coordinate through shared tasks, files and messages.
Each worker has its own working environment. Connect the accounts it needs and save useful context for its next task.
SourceHosted and external agents, one reporting view
Keep useful agents where they already run. Compatible external agents can send activity into dashboards alongside your hosted agents, helping you compare reported work and investigate bottlenecks across the operation.
External reporting requires a supported connection and useful activity records. It does not host, wake or remotely control the outside agent, or add its chat and desktop to Chat Wall.
SourceFollow your team’s progress
Follow up to eight conversations in Chat Wall. See who owns each task, open activity reports and help your team move to the next step.
Dashboards bring reported activity together. Choose the metrics that matter to your business and use task status for additional context.
SourceA stable IP for your social-media agent
Give an agent an optional static residential IP in an available country. Pair a consistent network address with its saved browser profile for ongoing work in your own social accounts.
Private static and fully dedicated static options are available, alongside rotating residential routing. A static address stays assigned until changed or released. Country inventory varies; routing does not guarantee that a social network will accept an account or session.

AI Agent Teams
An AI workforce you can shape as your startup growsStart from a prompt or Starter Kit. Run Hermes and OpenClaw together, choose models per role, and manage hosted work alongside compatible external-agent reports.
Consider it when: Fast-moving founders and small startups that want ongoing work ownership, flexible worker setups and deeper controls available when they need to optimize.
Plan for: Review the prepared instructions and connect your accounts. Budget hosting, model usage and any optional residential IPs separately.

Grok Bot
Named AI coworkers and shared Team BotsPersistent Bots that coordinate work, plus Team Bots that share role knowledge with human teammates through the app and Slack.
Consider it when: Cursor users and teams that want to teach workflows to Bots and put a shared AI coworker into existing collaboration tools.
Plan for: Check the plan allowance and on-demand spending settings. Personal Bots share an account computer, so shared files and logins require deliberate access choices.

How to choose between AI Agent Teams and Grok Bot
Both coordinate workers. Compare the working environments.
Grok Bot already supports parallel Bots and handoffs. Its personal Bots share an account computer, including browser sessions, files and command-line credentials. Shared Team Bots also support maintained expertise with private conversations for human teammates. Use them to share expertise and coordinate ongoing work.
Agent Teams gives workers their own persistent working environments and connects them through shared tasks, files and messages. Your developer and growth agent can have different browser contexts, tools and supported models. For a startup assembling its own operating team, that separation and choice make the worker setup a useful part of the buying decision.
Source 1Source 2Source 3Source 4Choose each worker’s tools and change them as you grow
Run Hermes and OpenClaw agents at the same time in Agent Teams. A harness is the software that plans work, calls tools and manages the agent’s native context. Pick the supported harness and model for each responsibility instead of choosing one combination for the whole business.
When a workflow needs a new tool, skill or schedule, you can use the worker’s native controls. A social role can also keep its browser profile and use an optional static residential IP in an available country. Grok documents cloud browser work; user-selectable residential IPs are not confirmed. Model and tool compatibility still depend on the chosen harness.
Source 1Source 2Source 3See the handoffs across the operation you actually have
Grok Team Bots is useful when colleagues need shared expertise with private conversations. Its routines belong to their creator and can deliver to a shared destination. For a founder, the next question is how to see work across the different agents and systems already used by the business.
Agent Teams combines hosted-agent conversations, shared tasks and activity dashboards. Compatible external agents can contribute reports without moving their runtime. Use the underlying records to investigate where a handoff is waiting or a worker needs help. External agents keep their own chat and controls.
Source 1Source 2Source 3Keep the power; reduce the work of running it yourself
An eligible Grok subscription may already give you useful included capacity. Check its weekly allowance and on-demand spending settings. If that setup covers your work, it is a practical starting point. Agent Teams is our recommendation when separate environments, different agent software and direct worker configuration matter to how you run the startup.
Start from a prompt or Starter Kit, then use native settings only when a job needs more. Agent Teams brings managed hosting, saved state, team coordination, desktop access and recovery into one platform. With a standalone Hermes or OpenClaw installation, you would arrange the surrounding hosting and management yourself. Hosting and model usage are separate costs; use the planner to budget your actual team.

Frequently asked questions
Does Grok Bot already support multiple agents?
Yes. Grok Bot supports parallel Bots and handoffs. AI Agent Teams gives each worker its own working environment and lets you choose its software, supported models and tools. Start with one role and add workers as your needs grow.
Can I bring agents I already run into Agent Teams?
Compatible external agents can send selected activity into your dashboards through a scoped reporting connection. An active plan and HTTP reporting support are required. This does not host the outside agent or add its conversations to Chat Wall.
Does a Grok Team Bot run one schedule for the whole team?
Its routines are personal to the creator and run as that person. A routine can post results somewhere shared, such as a Slack channel.
Is Grok Bot included in my existing subscription?
Eligible paid Cursor plans and qualifying linked individual SuperGrok or X Premium+ accounts include a weekly allowance. Check the eligibility and on-demand settings for your account; included usage is limited and linked grants do not add together.
Can I run Hermes and OpenClaw at the same time?
Yes. Different hosted workers can use different supported harnesses in the same team. A harness is the software that lets the AI plan and use tools. Choose models and settings per worker; integrations depend on its harness and version.
Can my dashboards include agents running elsewhere?
Yes. Compatible external agents can send selected activity through a scoped reporting connection alongside hosted-agent reports. Use those records to compare work and investigate bottlenecks. The connection does not host, wake or control the external agent, or add its chat and desktop to Chat Wall.
Do I need to configure everything before I start?
No. Begin with a prompt or Starter Kit, review its instructions and connect the accounts it needs. You can open native instructions, tools, skills, schedules and supported settings when you need to change or optimize a worker. Hosting, saved state and team management are provided around the agent.
Can I keep using Muse, Grok Bot, dot or Codex alongside Agent Teams?
Yes. Keep using the tools that work for you. Where your setup supports the reporting API or scoped MCP tools, connect it to send selected activity and results into the same dashboards as hosted workers. An active Agent Teams plan and reporting setup are required. External agents keep running in their own apps; the connection shares selected reports with your workspace.
Your next step
Build the team your ambition needs.
Start with one responsibility. Add workers and choose the tools each needs as you grow. Describe the job, connect your accounts and review the costs; deeper controls are there when you need them.
