VestraVestra gives your business a chief you name, Bash by default, who hires and runs a team of AI teammates that own whole jobs, from $19 a month. Grok Bot gives you Bots you create and brief one by one in xAI’s app, included with X Premium from $30 a month.
Yes. Your Vestra office is a map you can walk around. Every person, chief and teammate has a desk, and a Right now feed says in one line what each one is doing, live. Walk over or tap any desk to see its work, watch its computer and take over.[1]
Grok Bot gives each Bot its own chat. To find out how the others are doing, you ask your primary Bot.[2]
One look tells you what moved, what’s stuck and who it’s waiting on.
No. Vestra starts at $19 a month. Lite gives you up to 3 teammates and 2,000 credits every month, and every new office starts with 1,000 free credits. Unused credits roll over.[3]
Grok Bot comes with an eligible X, Cursor or SuperGrok plan.[4] X Premium costs $30 a month, Super $100 and Ultra $200.[5]
A small team can start handing off real work without another subscription.
Yes. Vestra’s chief has its own phone number and email address. Phone calls start on Pro.[6] You cap spending per task and per day, money and first contact wait for your yes, and every piece of work has a receipt.[7]
Grok Bot gives your Bots one shared email address at mail.grokbot.com, and its docs don’t describe phone calls.[8] Auto Review is on by default, so most actions run on their own after a model-based check.[9] Its monthly limit on extra usage isn’t a hard stop in the middle of a run.[4]
Your team can reach people for you, and you always know what it spent.
Start with one real job you want off your plate. See how your chief and its teammates handle it, then build from there.
The rows follow the four reasons above: a chief that runs the whole team; from $19, not $30; calls, email and the apps you use; and limits, approvals and receipts. After those come the areas both products cover, and how each one approaches them. Grok Bot does more in a few places: apps for iPhone, Android, Windows and Linux, tagging it on X, and teaching a skill by showing it once.
| What matters | Vestra | Grok Bot |
|---|---|---|
| Who runs the work | You name your chief (Bash by default) and tell it what you need in a sentence. It asks what a good manager would, then writes a teammate card: the job, goals you can check, the apps it uses, its first routines and what it must ask you about first. You read it, change anything and say yes. From then on your chief hands out the work, makes sure every result is checked before it reaches you, and brings you only real decisions.[10][11] | You create each Bot yourself with a name, a shape and a colour, then give it its job, sources and approval limits in your first message and ask it to remember them. There’s no settings page for a personal Bot. Your primary Bot is your main point of contact and coordinates the others.[2] |
| See your whole team | Your office is a map you can walk around, like a game. Every person, chief and teammate has a desk, and a Right now feed says in one line what each one is doing, live. An orange tag shows who is waiting on whom. Tap any desk to see its work, watch its computer live or take over. Nothing moves on the map unless real work is happening.[1] | Each Bot has its own chat. Your primary Bot is your main point of contact, coordinates your other Bots and can report on how they’re doing.[2][12] |
| Plans | Lite $19 a month for up to 3 teammates and 2,000 credits. Pro $97 for 20 teammates, 10,000 credits and phone calls. Max $197 for 50 teammates and 20,000 credits. Ultra $497 for 150 teammates and 50,000 credits. Billed yearly, they are $17, $87, $177 and $447 a month. One credit is one cent, the same for model time, the computer, searches and calls, and every plan includes your chief and the whole office.[13] | Included with an X Subscription: Premium at $30 a month, Super at $100 or Ultra at $200, for individuals or as team seats. It’s also included with paid Cursor plans and some linked SuperGrok and X plans. Bot usage comes from a weekly pool shared with Cursor and the Grok apps.[5][4] |
| Getting started | Sign up directly, on any plan. Every new office starts with 1,000 free credits, enough to hand over real work before you pick a plan. Your chief suggests your first teammates, you connect a few tools, and work starts the same day. Your team’s memory fills from your tools’ history on day one, so it already knows your customers.[3][14][15] | Available on eligible X, Cursor and SuperGrok plans. X Plus and SuperGrok Lite don’t include it. The free trial is a usage credit rather than a set number of days.[4] |
| Where you use it | Talk to your chief in the Vestra app on the web and the desktop app for Mac, in Slack (by direct message or a mention in any channel), in Telegram, or by email: forward anything, or copy it in on a thread. It’s the same chief everywhere, so a conversation started in Slack can finish in the app, and replying “1” takes the suggested option on any decision. WhatsApp and iMessage are being built.[6][10] | Desktop apps for macOS, Windows and Linux, iPhone and Android apps, Slack, and tagging @bot on X. You can chat with a Bot, start a voice call with it or send a voice note.[16][12] |
| Calls and email | Your chief has its own phone number and email address, so it calls and writes from its own line and inbox, not yours. It writes first, replies and follows up until there’s an answer. Before a call it reads what the team knows about the person, and afterwards the notes and next steps go where they belong. The first call or email to anyone new waits for your yes. Phone calls start on Pro.[6][17][13] | You can claim one email address at mail.grokbot.com, which your Bots use to read, search and send email. You can talk to a Bot on a voice call, but xAI’s docs don’t describe Bots making phone calls to other people.[8][12] |
| App connections | More than 2,000 apps connect in a click, including Gmail, Slack, HubSpot, Notion, Shopify and Stripe. Connect an app once, then choose which teammates may use it. Logins stay sealed: agents use them without ever seeing the password, and you can take access back in one tap. Where there’s no connector, a teammate uses the website on its own computer.[17][7] | Apps for services like Gmail, Notion and Slack, plus custom tools through MCP or APIs. Apps are account-wide, so a connected app is available to every Bot you run. Logins saved in Vault are filled in without being shown to the model.[8][12][9] |
| Model and engine choice | More than a model: pick the engine that does each teammate’s work, Vestra’s own, Claude Code or Codex. Your chief suggests one and says why, or picks job by job. Mix them in one team, so code written on Claude Code can be reviewed on Codex. Switch any time without losing the teammate’s job, skills or memory, and every engine works under the same approvals, limits and receipts.[18][6] | Grok Bot manages model selection, so there’s no model picker.[16] |
| Its own cloud computer | Your team works on a cloud computer with a real browser, files and a terminal. It uses any website the way you do, including ones with no connector, like supplier portals, booking pages and government forms. Watch it live, take over with one click when a site needs you, and hand it back to carry on where you left off. It has 8 GB on Lite and Pro, 16 GB on Max and 32 GB on Ultra.[17][13] | Your Bots share one persistent cloud computer with a browser, command line and files, so browser sessions and files are visible to every Bot. When a step needs you, like a passkey or a CAPTCHA, the Bot hands you the computer.[8] |
| Approvals | Spending over your limit, contacting someone new and deleting anything always come to you, and no setting turns that off. Everything else you tune teammate by teammate and task by task: ask first, suggest, or act and tell you afterwards. New teammates start by asking, and get more freedom only when you move the setting. Each decision arrives in one line with the facts and a suggestion, so you can answer from your lock screen.[7][10] | Auto Review is on by default, so most actions run on their own after a model-based check. Ask-first rules always stop matching actions for you, and team rules can only make things stricter. An email you ask for in chat goes out once Auto Review allows it.[9] |
| Spending limits and receipts | Cap any single task and the whole day, up to $100 a day. Anything unusually big, over 50 credits by default, waits for your okay with the cost shown. When a cap is reached, work stops at a sensible point and says what’s left. Every receipt splits the cost into model time, actions and computer time, and shows which teammate spent it on which job. Unused credits roll over, and you can top up any time.[7][13] | Bot usage draws on a weekly pool. Extra usage comes from prepaid credit or on-demand billing, and you can set a monthly limit, but the limit isn’t a hard stop in the middle of a run. A card saved in Vault fills in at checkout without a separate approval each time, unless you choose not to save it.[4][9] |
| Memory | A shared wiki of your people, customers, decisions, numbers and what went wrong last time, with a source for every line. It fills from your tools’ history on day one, then from every task, email and correction. Open any line’s source or edit any page, and the fix reaches every teammate’s next piece of work: correct one teammate once, and they all learn.[15][6] | Each Bot has its own memory, and a few facts like your name and time zone are shared by all of them. There’s no memory screen: you ask a Bot in chat what it remembers, and deleting a Bot erases its memory.[2] |
| Schedules and proactive work | Each teammate owns a goal and does three kinds of work: one-off asks, routines that run on a schedule (a market note every Monday at 9) or the moment something happens (a rival changing its prices), and the goal it holds for months. When it spots something worth doing, it brings you a proposal to approve, and on quiet days it says nothing. Your chief sends a morning brief at the time and place you choose.[11][10] | Routines run on a schedule or when something new happens in a connected app, in the cloud while your laptop is closed. Your primary Bot checks in with you on its own.[19][2] |
| Skills | Ready-made skills for Sales, Bookkeeping, Content, Customer care and Research, added to any teammate in a click. Custom skills are built around your own playbooks, data and standards, usually during onboarding, and read like a short plain-language checklist you can edit when your business changes.[11] | Show a Bot a task once and it saves the steps as a skill you can then automate. Learned skills start as drafts, and the feature may be enabled gradually. On a team, you can publish a private skill for teammates to use.[19] |
| Research | Hire a Research teammate in a sentence. Findings land in your memory wiki with a source for every line, and the rest of your team turns them into the outreach, the deck or the price change.[11][15] | Bots take on multi-step work across apps, websites and tools, such as building a deck or running a campaign, and prebuilt Bots cover jobs like meeting recaps and pitch decks.[12] |
A chief that runs the whole team. Your chief hires teammates in a sentence and checks their work before it reaches you, and you watch them all at work in the office.[10]
From $19, not $30. Vestra plans start at $19 a month.[3] Grok Bot comes with X Premium, from $30 a month.[5]
