Criw and Grok Bot
Checked on 4 October 2026
Two products, one shape
Both give you named agents with a job, a memory, routines and a computer to work on. Criw was built to that shape on purpose: it is the right way to work with agents. Where the two part is underneath, and that is what this page lists. Every line about Grok Bot comes from xAI's own documentation or from a review named at the foot, as they read on the date above.
Fact by fact
| Fact | Criw | Grok Bot |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free, or Criw Pro at €9.99 a month with $4 of credit included. Your own OpenRouter key adds nothing. | Included in every paid Cursor plan from Pro ($20 a month) and in SuperGrok from $30, up to SuperGrok Heavy (about $300), each with a weekly allowance; past it, use is billed on demand [1][5][6]. |
| Models | Any model on OpenRouter, chosen per agent, with its price shown. | Grok's own models only. There is no model picker [3]. |
| Where an agent's code runs | In a sandbox on your account's computer: its own folder, its own browser window, no access to your logins or to another agent's files. | All your Bots share one computer, its files and its logins. xAI's documentation says not to use Bots as separate trust zones [3]. |
| Your passwords | Sealed in a vault, used only after you tap, typed only into a password field, never shown again and never in a log. | Kept in the shared computer's browser. Session cookies and tokens stay on xAI's servers [4]. |
| Memory | Every memory listed in the agent's details, where you can add one or forget one. | Memory is kept, but there is no documented way to inspect, correct or delete a single one [2]. |
| Spending | A monthly cap on each agent and on the account, and the exact cost of every run whenever you ask. | A usage allowance per plan that resets weekly. No spending cap per Bot [1][3]. |
| How it reaches you | Apps for iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and the web. Each agent can have its own email address, and routines start from webhooks. | Desktop and phone apps. No reach through email, Slack or Telegram [2]. |
| Where your data lives | On servers in the European Union, under a Spanish company and the GDPR. | In xAI's cloud, with no choice of region and no private mode [2][3]. |
| What you take with you | Agents are files with a public schema, skills are open folders you can read, and your usage exports as CSV. | A Bot can be shared as a template with other Grok Bot users. |
What Grok Bot has that Criw doesn't
Teaching a task by recording your browser, team Bots with shared access, a plugin marketplace and a place inside the Cursor editor. They are what the higher tiers pay for, and none of them changes what an agent can touch.
