AI Agent Teams

Build and manage your own agent operation

A managed workspace for hosted Hermes and OpenClaw agents, human collaborators, shared files, tasks, conversations and reported results.

Consider it when: Founders, agencies and operators who want specialist agents, a choice of supported models, and a clear view of ongoing work.

Plan for: You configure the jobs, tools and access. Hosting, model usage and optional services have separate costs; useful automation still needs review.

Grok Bot

Named AI coworkers and shared Team Bots

Persistent 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.

A decision you can act on

How to choose between AI Agent Teams and Grok Bot

Both products support team work

Grok Bot should not be evaluated as a basic chatbot. Its September Team Bots release adds a shared coworker with team knowledge and private individual conversations. For a helpdesk or an account team, that can reduce repeated onboarding.

Agent Teams is attractive when the unit you want to manage is a collection of specialist agents, tasks and shared evidence. Compare how easily each product expresses ownership, passes a job to the next role, and exposes a blocker that needs a person.

Why runtime choice and external reporting matter

In Agent Teams you choose between supported Hermes and OpenClaw runtimes and configure model access for the work. That is useful when you already have instructions, tools or operational preferences tied to one of those runtimes.

You can also bring activity from external agents into the reporting workspace through scoped APIs. A mixed operation does not have to move every agent at once to start seeing its reported work in one place. Check reporting coverage before treating a chart as the full business outcome.

Shared computers and shared knowledge are different

Grok’s documentation distinguishes personal Bots sharing an account computer from Team Bots sharing role knowledge across people. Browser logins, private conversations and team instructions are different boundaries; test the one relevant to your use case.

For Agent Teams, review agent and team scopes for shared files, credentials and management connections. A successful handoff should carry the context needed for the job without casually broadening access. Include this in the pilot before connecting a valuable business account.

Run a fair cost and continuity trial

Use the same weekly research or support brief in each product. Record whether it finishes, how often a person intervenes, what evidence it leaves and what it consumes. On Agent Teams, native schedules need a running agent; stopping the agent changes the availability of that recurring job.

Grok Bot plan access is not a promise of unlimited execution. Check weekly usage and on-demand settings; linked plan grants do not add together. Agent Teams separates hosting from inference and optional services, so compare the full monthly workflow rather than the number of chat messages.

Make the comparison real

Run a small, useful pilot

Example: prepare a weekly competitor brief from two approved sources, identify what changed, and leave a draft for review. This is a suggested test, not a customer case study.

  1. Write one brief. Specify the sources, deadline, time zone, output format and decisions that need you.
  2. Connect only what the job needs. Check the actual read/write access and test an unavailable source.
  3. Inspect the handoff. Can you find the source, task status, missing information and next owner?
  4. Measure the whole run. Record useful output, corrections, interruptions and actual usage before adding more work.

For Agent Teams, keep the agent running for its native schedule, review the spending controls, and save a tested setup before expanding the team. Explore costs and controls →

Sources and review method

Last completed source check: . We review primary documentation, release announcements and the current Agent Teams guide weekly. Product claims are documentation-based; the decision guidance is our interpretation. Unverified access or prices remain explicitly uncertain.

“Muse” means Meta’s personal agent, “Grok Bot” means the persistent Bot product, and “OpenAI dot” means dots in ChatGPT. Model releases alone do not establish a product’s enabled features. Scheduled review does not replace checking current provider details before purchase.
