Speakers

Jenna Npe, on xAI’s field growth team, explains how she uses Grokbot to coordinate a marketing campaign and customer event, with Alex joining for product guidance and Q&A.

Grokbot as a marketing teammate

Jenna describes joining the field marketing team when the company had around 100 to 200 go-to-market staff and a steady stream of requests. She previously combined tools such as Cursor, Claude, and Glean to keep up. Grokbot lets her create role-specific bots that retain context and can run in the cloud.

A six-agent event workflow

Jenna maps campaign work across six agents: Trend Spotter, Win the Day, Luma Pages, Fieldfinder for GTM, Outbound Agent, and Greenlight Approvals. In a demo using fictional company North Wind Cloud, Trend Spotter suggests a Warriors versus Heat event at Chase Center and flags KubeCon as a possible travel conflict. Win the Day builds the event plan, including guest strategy, a run of show, and a countdown checklist.

From event plan to invitations and approvals

The Luma Pages agent turns the plan into a private registration page and drafts its copy. Fieldfinder helps sales staff find events relevant to target accounts, while the Outbound Agent prepares customer invitations using the event details. Greenlight checks registrations and can report attendee status in Slack; Jenna describes keeping external emails in draft for human review and limiting automatic approvals to specified criteria.

Designing and managing a bot team

Alex explains that bots can delegate work to one another through group chats or by being mentioned in another bot’s conversation. Jenna and Alex recommend clear success criteria, examples of good output, and a specific job for each bot. Jenna reviews her agents weekly and separates unassigned bots she may remove or combine.

Keeping people in control as bots learn

Jenna says she uses approval gates for important messages and external actions, and Alex suggests adding automation gradually after reviewing repeated outputs. Jenna uses Notion, Google Drive, Gmail, and Slack as sources for event context. She also has a bot draft posts for X, but keeps control of publishing herself.

Takeaways

  • Break a campaign into distinct jobs, such as research, planning, registration, outreach, and follow-up.
  • Give each bot a narrow role, clear success criteria, and examples of acceptable work.
  • Start with drafts and human review; expand automation only after outputs prove reliable.
  • Review the bot roster regularly to spot overlaps and retire or combine unused agents.
  • Connect bots to the documents and messages that hold relevant context, and make automated messages identifiable.
