What changes for you
01
How you pay
Grok Bot has no plan of its own. It comes with a paid Cursor plan, or with a personal SuperGrok plan linked to a Cursor account. On Cursor Teams, each person costs US$40 a month before tax.
For 30 staff that is US$14,400 a year. Each person's Grok Bot work comes out of their own seat's allowance, and work beyond it is billed on top.
Glimmer is priced by the job. We pick the job that costs your team the most hours, build it, and count the hours with you after. A grant can pay part of the build.
Example: Sales and marketing
An example week for an interiors firm that sells over WhatsApp. We count your own hours on the first call.
02
Your systems
A Grok Bot works on a cloud computer in the United States. It signs in to websites with each person's own login. Team Bots answer in Slack or in the Grok Bot app.
Glimmer runs in your own cloud account. It answers in the chat app your team already uses, such as Lark or Teams. It reaches only the systems on your approved list. Passwords stay locked away, and every connection is logged.
You mark the actions that need a person, such as a payment or a client email. Glimmer asks the person who made the request, in the same thread.
The people and orders in the chat are an example.
03
Who sets it up
With Grok Bot, each person creates their own Bots and signs them in to the right websites. Each person also writes the rules for what needs approval. A Team Bot's owner adds the plugins and keys for everyone.
We sit with the person who does the job today and write down how it is really done. Then we build it, put it to work in your chat app, and train your team leads to change it themselves. We keep running the servers underneath.

One first build, kept small. We agree what it covers before any work starts, and a grant can pay part.
Fair to say
If Grok Bot already does the job you have in mind, we tell you, and we do not quote a build for it.
