Seven Grok Bots run a $20-a-month content desk
The author replaced a six-person content team with seven single-task Grok Bots plus a routing agent, built with zero code in ten minutes, with human review still required before publishing.
MY GROK BOT CONTENT DESK COSTS ME $20 A MONTH I GOT QUOTED OVER $15,000 FOR THE HUMAN VERSION Priced it out before I built it: researcher, writer, designer, analyst, scheduler, editor - six roles, market rates, five figures a month before anyone ships a single post Six Roles → One Narrow Job Each → Fixed Handoffs → A Router → A Desk Seven agents replaced that line item. Here's why it actually works: → One narrow job per agent - a model asked to be six people is mediocre at six things, asked to be one, it's one → A fixed handoff order - the bottleneck was never ideas, it was six human hand-offs between having one and shipping it. Here it's a function call → A seventh agent that only routes - six agents without a chief of staff is a group chat, with one, it's a desk → Nobody sleeps - six people clock out at six, the chain doesn't Zero code. Seven prompts. Ten minutes to stand up. Still approves everything before it publishes - that gate stays on purpose. And this hasn't been stress-tested over months yet, so the misses will get written up too Most people are still asking Grok Bot one question at a time This is what happens when you give it a department instead
