Grok Bot vs Muse: better product, freemium wins users

A daily user of both says Grok Bot is better across the board, but Muse's free tier offers near-$30-subscription usage, so he recommends Muse to light-using friends and family.

I use both daily, and Grok Bot, without bias, is simply far better. But Muse is pulling ahead in users almost entirely because of its freemium model. You get nearly the same usage as Grok’s $30 subscription for free. I’m happy paying $100 for Grok, but for my normie friends and family who barely use AI, I’m forced to recommend Muse. I’ve written a dozen analyses on this by now. 99% of my recommendations are done. Grok Bot is number one across the board. The only thing left is a very limited freemium tier at signup, and they’re on top. You could even use dirt-cheap external models for it; normies barely use AI for anything deep. I genuinely hope SpaceX considers it.
