Grok Bot 077 Can Now Wait on Hold So You Don't Have To!

0:00Grock bot 0.77 can now wait on hold so you don't have to. How many hours have you lost just sitting on hold? That awful music. Your call is important to us. Press one, press four, wait, press zero. What if you never had to do that again? What if your AI could sit on hold for you and only grab you when a real person finally picks up? Hey, if we haven't met already, I'm the digital avatar of Julian Goldie, CEO of AI SEO and geo agency Goldie agency. Whilst he's helping clients get more leads and customers, I'm here to help you get the latest AI updates and today's is a good

0:32one. Grock bot just quietly picked up something in its newest build. It can pick up the phone, make the call and do the one thing we all hate, the waiting. Stick around, I'll show you exactly how it works and the smart way to actually use it. So, let's get into it. Grock bot is the AI teammate app from space XAI, the team behind Grock. Quick version, if you've not seen it before, a Grock bot isn't just a chat box. It gets its own computer in the cloud. It logs into your tools, clicks around like a real person and actually finishes the job instead of just talking about it. Up until now, all

1:03of that happened on a screen, research, forms, moving work between apps. But the newest version, build 0.77, adds something completely different. Your bot can now make a phone call. Here's what that actually looks like. You ask your bot to call a business. It dials the number for you. Then it does the part you dread, it sits on hold, it listens to the menu, press one for billing, press two for support, it taps the right buttons. And if they transfer the call, it hangs on through that, too. The whole time, you get on with your day, no phone

1:33against your ear, no minutes ticking by. You just glance at a live transcript on your screen and see exactly what's being said as it's being said. When a real human finally picks up, that's your moment. The bot hands the call to you or keeps going and makes your request for you. And after the call ends, it writes you a short note. What happened, what they said, what you need to do next. No scribbling things on a sticky note. No, wait, what was that reference number again? It's all sitting there in plain

1:57text. That right there is the headline. Your AI waits on hold so you don't have to. Now, I want to be straight with you because that matters on this channel. This calling feature is brand new. It's been showing up in the latest test builds of GrokBot over the last few days, version 0.77. So, depending on when you're watching this, it might be rolling out to you right now or landing very soon. Either way, it's worth understanding before most people even know it exists. And here's why it's such a big deal. Think about how much of your week gets eaten by calls like this, chasing up an order, sorting out a bill,

2:28asking one simple question that their website refuses to answer. The actual call takes 2 minutes, the hold takes 20. That dead time in the middle is the part nobody ever gets back. This hands that dead time to something that doesn't get bored, doesn't sigh, and doesn't give up after 10 minutes of hold music. It also means the thing you've been putting off for a week, that call you keep not making, finally just gets done. Because

2:52starting it costs you almost nothing. You fire it off and you get back to real work while your bot does the hanging around. And here's the part that's easy to miss. Your GrokBot isn't running on your laptop. It lives on its own computer up in the cloud working around the clock. So, you can close your laptop, walk the dog, go to bed, and it'll still be sitting there on hold

3:09waiting for someone to finally pick up. The job doesn't stop just because you stepped away. Now, before I show you what else is in this build, let me pause for one quick thing. Quick pause. If you're watching this thinking I want to actually learn to use tools like this properly, that's exactly why we built the AI Profit Boardroom. Inside, there's a full 30-day roadmap that takes you from total beginner to running AI tools with real confidence, one simple step at a time. And there are four live coaching calls every single week. So, the moment you get stuck on something new like this exact feature, you can jump on, ask a

3:42real human, and get unstuck fast. It's honestly the quickest way to keep up when things move this fast. Link in the description or go to aiprofitboardroom.com. Okay, back to it. There's another quiet thing I really like here. A phone call is one of those jobs with no app and no website behind it. You can't fill in a form to skip the queue. You just have to call. And because your bot works the phone the same way a person would, it handles the exact kind of task that normal software just can't touch. It's not clicking a button on a screen, it's picking up the phone and doing the human thing. So,

4:11what could you actually use this for? Say you need to reach a service line that's famous for long waits, you could ask your bot to call, work through the menu, and sit on hold while you get on with something that matters. When a person finally picks up, it flags you and you step straight into the real conversation. You get the human part without losing half an hour of your life to the hold. Or picture a simple question for a local business. Are they open late tonight? Do they have the thing you need in stock? You could have your bot place the call, ask, write down the answer, and drop you a quick note,

4:39all without you ever touching your phone. And the calls feature isn't the only thing in this build. A few other pieces quietly showed up in these test versions, too. There's a new messages set up for Mac sitting under the connect apps screen. Right now, it's switched off, which usually means it's being lined up for a proper release soon. So, your bot handling your texts could be just around the corner. There's also Tailscale support. In plain English, that lets your bot join your own private secure network once an admin gives it the okay. Handy if you want it reaching things that aren't just sitting open on the public internet. And they've

5:12improved sharing. If someone shares one of their bots with you, you now get an email letting you know. Small quality of life stuff, sure, but stacked together, it tells you the team is building this thing out fast. Put it all together and you can see the direction clearly. Grogbot is turning into less of a chat tool and more of an actual assistant that gets real things done out in the world, on and off your screen. Right, let me give you a few quick tips so you use this the smart way, not the chaotic

5:35way. First, start small and low stakes. Let it handle a boring simple call first, something like checking opening hours. See how it does before you trust it with anything that really matters to you. Second, read that live transcript while it's happening, at least in the beginning. It's the best way to learn how your bot handles a menu and when it decides to tap you in. Once you trust it, you can walk away and just read the note afterwards. Third, you stay in charge of the important bits. When a call needs a real decision, a yes or a no, your personal details, anything sensitive, that's your job, not the

6:04bot's. Let it do the waiting and the routine, you do the deciding. And fourth, keep your expectations sane. This is early, it won't be flawless on every call, every menu, every accent. Treat it like a sharp new helper that's still learning the ropes, not a finished product. Use it that way and it will save you a ton of time without any nasty

6:20surprises. So, who is this actually for? Honestly, anyone whose week has calls hiding in it. People running a small operation on their own. Busy folks who just never find a spare half hour to sort the admin. Anyone who's ever stared at a phone number and thought, "I'll do that later." And then never did. This quietly removes the excuse because the hard part, the waiting, isn't yours anymore. So, that's the big one. Grok Bot can now make a call, sit through the hold, work the menu, hand you a live

6:44transcript, and write up what happened. The thing we all keep putting off, hand it to your AI, and it's just one piece of a build that's clearly pushing Grok Bot out into the real world. If you take one thing from this video, let it be this. The boring, time-eating tasks are the first ones AI is coming for. And trust me, that's a good thing. And look, here's the honest truth. Right now, most people haven't figured out how to use tools like this yet. There's a window open where learning this stuff early

7:09genuinely puts you ahead of the pack. And that window will not stay open forever. So, if you want to get ahead while it's still open, come join us inside the AI Profit Boardroom.
