0:00Grombot has completely changed how I work. And if you're looking to maximize your usage of Grockbot, you've come to the right place. In today's video, I'm going to be showing you seven different ways that I actually use Grockbot. From fine-tuning my own models to building my own apps to helping me with my finances, even managing my home network. I'm going to show you how I set up my team of agents, how you can copy parts that actually matter to you. And by the end of this, you're going to see how Grockpot at the center of this allows me to be this productive. Sit back, relax, let's get into it. So, first things
0:29first, we're going to cover use cases. I've been using it to fine-tune my own models. Now, I'm going to take you to Ross Cloud, which is an internal dashboard that basically manages my home network. And you could see here, I have a couple of models that I fine-tuned myself. And when I say I, Grockbot did it for me. I even have training ready data sets here, all from the different conversations I've been having with
0:52different models on different harnesses. Agent traces is knowledge work and coding SFT is coding tasks. Now you might be wondering how the heck did I do this with Grockbot? Well, it started with a simple conversation where I created a bot called a databot. And you can see my data bot right here. And I basically asked it to look at my entire network to look at all my machines and to start collecting all the different traces I have, all the different conversations I have with my agents and to start categorizing the conversations that I had, the successful ones that I
1:22had with an agent into training data. And this is the response I got. Coding SVT V4 is built on the NAS. This is my storage. 637 rows from 32 repos. Every prompt now includes the real files, the patch touches, and all 70 eval patches applied cleanly at their parent commitment. Now, without getting too much detail with how the data is structured, just know that my data bot went through all my coding traces, organized them in a proper fashion, removed the ones that were bad runs, collected the good ones, and it stored it all in my NAS for me to fine-tune or train any model that I want. And here's
1:57the thing, all this is new to me. So I would ask my data bot to explain the coding data we have simply and it would say here there are two piles of coding data. The raw logs of your sessions and a small training set made from them. The raw logs are every conversation you've had with cloud codeex cursor open code and pi on all your machines. They come to about 28 GB and they now back up to the NAS every night. So it's explaining to me the data that I have, how I collected it, how it's structured. So I'm having this back and forth. I'm not
2:25a machine learning guy. I'm not a data guy. All this is possible because I'm using Grockbot. Now going back to this flow, I collected my data, but I need to run a fine-tune, right? Which I need a GPU. And even if I have access to a GPU, I need to be able to run the fine-tune successfully, check that everything works. And guess who handled that? Our friend Grobbot. Now I have some Daytona credits cuz I'm part of their startup program. I basically told my machine learning bot, it's named ML, and I asked it, can we train a model now? And it responded saying, "Yes, I'm checking the
2:55GPU availability and prices on Daytona so I can give you cost estimate." It said, "Yes, Daytona has plenty of Spot H100s right now for $227 an hour." By the way, these are the big boy ones. We're talking anywhere from $25,000 to $400,000. That's how much they cost. And I gave my Grockbot access to that via Daytona. Now, here's the thing. I didn't have
3:17enough data to actually train a model. Plus, it would cost a lot of money. But I had enough data to fine-tune a really small model. And guess what I did? We did that and I got results. And you can see here it says the biggest gain was on coding and most of it came in the first third of the run. After that it kept improving but slowly. So from organizing my coding traces to cleaning up my data to renting GPUs on Daytona to having a fine-tuned model and I'll take it even a step further to being able to run the model on Daytona. All I have to do is
3:48click start here. Now, I'm about to serve a model on Daytona on eight H100s. And here's the thing, this is not a one-time thing. My Grockbot periodically goes through all my coding traces, organizes my training data, so I have a training data set that continues to grow and grow and grow, and one day, you never know, we might have Gian Labs serving our own model to all you beautiful people. So, to make sure you don't miss that, make sure you're subscribed and hit the notification bell. And what's so cool is I want you to see here we have our own ROSS class of models that I've been fine-tuning for
4:20fun. And all of this is being done by Grockbot. Number two is building apps with REA. Rea being reverse engineer Anything. Now I built a ton of apps using both Grockbot and Rea using Claw Code as well. And I built my own Bible app called Simply My Bible. You should check it out. Over 364 downloads. I built my own recording software. That's what I'm using right now. It's called Wreck. Over 129 downloads. I built Glide which is basically screen studio clone 171 downloads and then I also built Terminal which is my own trading app 400 almost 500 downloads and all this was built using Grockbot. Now there are
4:57other great tools that I used to build. One of them being today's sponsor. Have you ever had a crazy phase where you were stalking someone that you're really obsessed with? If you did, you're weird. But you know what's cool? Firecrawl's new monitoring feature. Here's how it works. You give Firecrawl what page you want to monitor. You tell it the changes that you actually care about. In this case, we want to monitor
5:16anthropic.com/news. The goal is to find out when any new model release happens. And what's going to happen is Fire Call is going to watch for these changes and when a change happens, it's going to catch it and it's going to let you know. In this case, we just found out that Fable 5 just dropped. Now, you could use this for a plethora of things. Whether you're watching your competitor's pricing, maybe you're waiting for a product to come back in stock, or maybe you just want to know when that job posting goes live. Before monitor, you would have to aggressively be refreshing, making sure you're first. But with Firecrawl, it's
5:50really dead simple. I'm trying to buy a PS5 Pro to play GTA 5. They're all sold out. Is I'm going to copy this URL, paste it in here, and create a new monitor. And basically, it's going to ask me what I wanted to monitor. And then I specify what I wanted to monitor for, which is when the PS5 Pro is in stock. I click continue. I can specify how often I want it to check. In this case, it'll be every 15 minutes. I click on create search monitor. And in just a few clicks, I have a monitor ready. And here's the most beautiful thing. You can
6:19just tell your agent to do this for you. I can get it to alert me via email, web hook, or I can even get Slack alerts. It's literally 2026. Stop refreshing pages again and again to get information instantly. Use Fire Call's monitor feature. Give it to your agent. Get set up. The link is in the description. Let's get back to the video. Here's an example of how I built one of my apps, Glide. Now, here's the exact prompt I used to build Glide. And I'm just going to show it to you. I wrote, "I want you to use Rea and reverse engineer Screen Studio. I want there to be feature
6:49parody. I want to fully open source super fast built using Rust version. Use cloud code opus extra high and use /go to get it done." This is pretty much a very simple, terrible prompt to be honest, right? But Grockbot asked me what machine it should use. I have a network of machines. I told it to use my MacBook because this is going to be a Mac app and I wanted it to be able to run tests. And it got going and it was really just that. I had an app idea. I shared it with Grockbot. I tell Grockbot to use /go and cloud code and it will
7:18spin up a cloud code session in one of my machines. It'll use /go. It'll build up the app. Grockbot will review the app and when the app is at a state where it works and it's live for me to use, it will give me access to that. Now, there's one secret that makes this all work and that's my skills repo. Now,
7:32I've talked about this in a few videos. I'm going to have a dedicated video coming to this soon. I'll link this in the description down below, but one of the things that my Grockbot knows about and I'm calling it RStack because there's Pstack maybe just, you know, kind of cool. You know what I'm trying to say? Mine's going to be called RStack and basically my Grockbot agent Cloud Code has access to the skills repo and this basically gives all my agents the exact workflow to use where every new
7:56features on a work tree. It builds it. It uses evidence-driven testing to prove uh that the feature actually works. It uses Gravile to review the code changes. If it's not a five out of five, pass it back to the agent to fix it. Once it's a five out of five, it's ready for me to review. In this case, Grockbot actually handles the merging because these are apps that I just want to build for personal use. So, I'll let Grockbot handle the merging, but one of the things it knows is it can only merge five out of fives. Now, when I want to do the merging and I want to review the
8:26features being built, guess what? I just tell Grockbot that I want to do that and it listens to the instructions I give it. And that's led to a plethora of apps totaling to over a,000 downloads for sure. Oh, I forgot to even share Sketch. Sketch is basically my paper alternative. I just made it for fun. I really like paper. So fine-tuning my own model, building my own apps. Number three, this is the adults talking here is managing my finances and my books, right? So I have a finance spot. I will not show you finance spot because there are numbers, but basically finance spot has access to all my transactions via
8:59the finance plugin. So literally if you go to the apps and you search finance and you click on that, this is basically plaid but they call it finance to be fancy. Then you give it access to all your brokerages. You connect your bank accounts, your credit cards, whatever. If you have some spreadsheets like I do like Google Sheets or you know on your Google Drive connect that as well any sort of statements whatever it is like in my case it would be for sponsorships and stuff like that. So, I connect all these all this and I basically tell Grockbot, my finance bot, reconcile all of this, manage my books, have a ledger
9:30for all my transactions, create for me a monthly budget, see how much I'm spending, what am I overspending on, where can I maximize my investments. Here's the thing. I even asked Grockbot if I can afford certain things. For example, I really want to buy that iPhone Duo. Do I need it? No. Do I want it? Yes. Should I buy it? I asked the Grockbot. And Grockpot's like, "You know what? You don't really need it, but if you want to buy it, maybe make a video about. So video on the iPhone D may be coming soon. When it comes to organizing data that already exists that's super
10:01useful like finances, I find it to do a stellar job. I've even sent some of the uh spreadsheets that's created for me to my accountant and she gave it an astounding wow. And I also have a routine that runs every Monday which basically everything gets right. You know, the numbers get checked, transactions get checked, everything's reconciled. If the finance b has any question, it asks me and I respond. This happens every Monday. Now, on that same vein of business, another thing that Grockpot really helps me with is actually my content pipeline. Now, I have too many ideas to even get started with, but I always want to be fresh and
10:34I always want to stay up to date with the things going on. And sometimes, especially in our space, there's too much going on. That's why this YouTube bot is a lifesaver. Basically what it does is every so few hours it's going to share with me three dates, three tweets, three news changes that it reads from Twitter. With Grockbot, you basically have access to X's API. You can pull data from X. I basically have it where every few hours it scour X, looks through all the AI news and tweets and basically gives me three topics that I could talk about. In this case, today it shared about enthropics S1 filing. Good
11:05topic. It shared that OpenAI shipped uh GBT 6.1 Terra. Okay. And then it also shared that cursor released their agent SDK. Right? All of these are great topics. And literally I have Grockbot running this. So post trending post from X. My YouTube bot has a routine 8 a.m. 3 p.m. Um I have a notion of all the video ideas. So if there's any video ideas that sort of align with the information it brings from X, it will put those resources in that video card. So I have resources uh when I'm planning to do that video. Like I said here, it flags matches resources in the video card. And
11:38then I get to recording like here. Now here I'm still experimenting, but it's actually been pretty good with editing video. The video that you're watching right here is edited by Dan. Say hi, Dan. But I've been using AI to try to experiment if AI can edit. And here's an example of a video that was fully edited by AI. Like you could see it position me in the right place. The colors look pretty good. Um, there's actually some text. Like you could see here it animates pretty nice. And like it did a decent job with the audio. I wasn't the biggest fan of the audio, but the
12:09visuals were exceptionally well. So, I'm not there with editing full videos, but maybe editing some clips or maybe even helping my editor edit faster, right? So, I've been experimenting with Grockbot. It's not fully there yet, and maybe it's a skill issue on my behalf, but it's something that I'm continuously experimenting with and it's looking really good. Now, the sixth thing is family stuff, right? I'm a new father, gent. I'm a girl dad and I love my baby so much and I am the worrier. I'm the one who panics a lot. So, I'm asking my Grocka questions. What is this sound that she make? Is she hungry? What is
12:43this? What is that? I'm also blessed to have a village around me, my family, friends, church. But there's sometimes 3 in the morning, I got to shoot a quick question and Grockbot is there. I also have a bot called Prepper. Now, this is going to sound a little far-fetched and crazy, but there was a day where we didn't have water for 2 days cuz a pipe burst down the road. And that kind of made me panic where I'm like, "Wo, there's no water." like the AC wasn't working cuz it was it was powered with water and like we couldn't shower, we couldn't do all these things and I
13:09started to panic. So, I got a bot that basically built me a spreadsheet of all the things I need to buy in case of an emergency and store them in a pantry. It worked for a couple of hours and it gave me a whole spreadsheet with budgets for 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 6 months. It's honestly incredible. And the one thing I really want to say is I hope this video allows you to think big and to push your Grock butt. Like do not be limited by what you think is possible. Actually try to do what you think is not possible or the AI will miss cuz yes it might fail
13:39you but you never know what new thing you unlocked by using this. Now the seventh thing that Grockpot helps me with is running my home lab. Now let me kind of explain to you how my home lab works. I have five machines all connected via tail scale. I have a Linux machine. I have a framework laptop that runs Linux. I have a Mac machine. I have a MacBook Pro the one I'm using to record right here. And then I have a VPS
14:00that I use that's based in Kansas. Pretty good price. But here's the thing. It's not just these five machines. I also have a Synology NAS that's basically the central storage unit for all these machines. A lot of backups happen. All my raw footage is here. All my important files are here. But there's also external machines that my network communicates with, and that's GPUs on Daytona, right? I have this new found love for fine-tuning models and, you know, serving models and inference and all that type of stuff. There's just a lot of cool stuff that I'm working on. I can't wait to share with you. So, make
14:31sure you're subscribed. My IT bot helped me set up all of this, in particularly running cloud GPUs via Daytona. Now, if I were to show you my ROSS cloud dashboard, this is basically the dashboard that I use to overview my network and manage my machines and all that stuff. There's a lot of cool things here. First and foremost, I get to see the list of devices. And here's the thing. Even from this dashboard, I can control my machine. Let's say I want to
14:53take control of my Mac machine remotely. I would just need to enter my username and password. And now I have full access to my Mac machine all from my dashboard that Grockpot helped me set up. I get an overview of all my agents working. I see the sessions that are running. I can see what jobs are working in my network. And I can also see the coding activity. In particular, how much money in tokens I've burnt. And as you can see, in the last 30 days, I've burnt over $14,000 worth of credits. Obviously, this is all subsidized subscription, but you can see how crazy this is. I run a bunch of
15:25automations on this dashboard and I also have uh CLI proxy running because I have multiple claude subscriptions because Opus V5, the subsidies we're getting on that $200 plan is freaking amazing. I even built my own harness where I can test out the models I'm serving on the Daytona GPUs, right? So, for example, if I click on the Ross models right here, all of these are being served on Daytona and I can test them live on my network on this harness. By the way, I basically cloned the Deep Sea Carness and called
15:54it Ross Cloud harness. Don't come at me. I just wanted to clone it because they have a great harness. And then I have the lap section where you can see the training runs I have. You can see the data set. I've even been trying to run some benchmarks. Haven't seen success yet. I also have my own inference page where I can literally click start and have models deployed on Daytona. And here's a couple things that itbot does for me. Every single week, it audits the fleet to make sure that everything is aligned, makes PRs if things need to change. We're always hardening security, making sure the firewalls, the SSH, tail
16:22scale, all that stuff is set up properly. Content is always backed up, and we're using H100s to fine-tune and serve models. And this one is the best one. Adgard Home blocks a Samsung TV ads plus tracking. Thank you, Grockbot. Now, you know the seven use cases. Here are the different bots I have. I have an engineer bot, a designer bot, a finance bot, an adviser for business. Believe it or not, this was actually very helpful just to bounce ideas off of an IT bot, a shopping bot, a health bot, a baby bot, a prepper bot, an ad studio bot, and a YouTube content bot. And I was sort of
16:54against all these different bots in the beginning, but now the more I've used it, I've started to enjoy because the separation of all these different bots. It's not just context from the bot, it's context for my brain where like when I'm working with the engineer bot, I know we're doing engineering. When I'm working with the YouTube bot, I know we're working YouTube. When I'm working with the editor bot, I know we're doing editing. So, this context divide with the different bots almost helps me be
17:16organized and allows me to move faster. And this is why there is no other personal agent than Grockbot. Heck, I was building my own Pluto. And I've come to terms that Grockbot is a much better personal agent. Pluto is great for businesses and I'll be sharing that journey with you all as well. But there is no personal agent like Grockbot. I am absolutely hooked and I honestly can't find myself testing out dots or do it because I'm so invested with the Grobot and I'm actually using it. But let me know your thoughts. Should I try out the other personal agents? Do you want videos on those? What do you think of
17:48this setup? Let me know in the comments down below. Make sure to like, comment, subscribe. Listen, the next couple videos, they're going to be fire. The production of the last couple videos has been fire. And all this is possible when you like, when you comment, you're subscribe, you're sharing with your auntie, your cousins, your uncles. Thank
18:01you so much for watching this video. It's your boy Ross. You've been awesome. I'll see you in the next one. Peace.
