AI Personal Assistants: Muse, Grok Bot, Cue Usage & Comparisons

Grok Bot can now remember its progress and handle multi-step work like sales follow-ups, recruiting and inbox tasks across tools, and can be downloaded to a phone to hand off workflows.

Someone posted a screenshot asking whether Grok Bot can now answer calls on the user's behalf, reflecting expectations for a personal assistant's calling ability.

The author deployed Pi Durable on a VPS as a web-based personal assistant and tested crash recovery, scheduled reminders, subagents and multi-device sync, concluding it is more a development library than a finished product.

The author says they prefer calling Grok Bot over typing, but wants it to call them proactively for actions so they never miss anything.

The author argues the future holds multiple coexisting personal assistants, with only a few like Muse and Instinct likely to succeed, and says builders should start from the largest-TAM work use case rather than a generic agent.

The author says Grok Bot is good at making AI videos and can drive Seedance 2.5 to produce them, and has open-sourced the workflow.

After a post passed one million views, the author previews a beginner-friendly tutorial on connecting multiple Grok Bots to Feishu as an agent fleet for enterprise collaboration, and promotes a Q&A group.

A user had Grok Bot obtain an email and register for Muse with an invite code, bypassing the waitlist to reach the birthday step, then succeeded after linking a card and got 10E of credit.

The post argues Grok Bot is less a chatbot than a capable new hire: give it a clear job such as researching 10 companies, finding decision-makers and updating the CRM, and it opens the browser and finishes the work itself.

A user has Cue summarize all their inboxes three times a day on weekdays, so they no longer check for unread mail manually and only use it to reply and send emails, while also filtering out spam.

The author says personal assistants like Grok Bot come with a cloud computer and are highly capable, with the real bottleneck being the user's imagination, and suggests talking with it in depth to explore its limits.

Forbes selected 20 agentic AI companies, including the personal assistant Instinct, a 14-person, $10 billion company.
