How to Make Money with Grok: Eight Documented Paths

Grok is xAI’s chat, image, and agent product. Nobody pays you for a Grok login. On this site, almost no business is “Grok and nothing else.” One app’s notes name Grok Imagine. One operator says he likes Grok Bot. The rest name Grok in a list with ChatGPT, Claude, and others, or they sell something next to Grok without calling the model.

Where a stack only lists Grok among models, this page says so. It does not invent a Grok integration the file does not contain. Every number is copied from the stack, with its proof label. The median verified AI business here makes about $300 a month (study). The same honesty for other model names is in how to make money with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and DeepSeek.

1. A try-on app whose notes name Grok Imagine

Stack: AI Clothes Virtual Try-On App

FitIn shows a person wearing a garment from a selfie and a clothing photo. The stack’s notes say the pictures use Grok Imagine, with Fashn as the fallback, and a weekly price around $6.99. ~$237 MRR (TrustMRR, Oct 2026); ~$4.6K all-time — early. Verified. Hard, 90% automated. Startup cost $99.

Honest catch: “early” is in the revenue line. About $237 a month is a small checked total. The notes also name a fallback model, so this is not proof that every image was Grok. Clothing that looks wrong on a body gets refunds.

2. A directory whose steps name Grok Bot as one option

Stack: The Agent-Built Autonomous Directory Business

Alex Finn’s stack is a directory an agent researches, builds, and keeps up. The tool line says “Grok Bot (or another AI agent).” The steps say he likes Grok Bot. $1,800 in ~10 days (operator, self-reported). Operator-Reported. Medium, 95% automated. Startup cost $1.

Honest catch: the file allows another agent, and the revenue line does not say the dollars came from xAI. Ten days is not a year. The figure is his claim. You still post about it. He describes that posting as the main thing he has done since launch.

3. Sell an alternative to Grok Bot

Stack: Open-Source AI Agents That Use a Computer

MausBot’s tagline calls it an open-source alternative to Grok Bot, Muse by Meta, Cue by Manus, and OpenAI Dots. A bot opens a browser, researches, and works through files. ~$7,327 MRR; $5,491 verified revenue last 30 days (TrustMRR/DodoPayment, Oct 29, 2026). Verified. Medium, 85% automated.

Honest catch: naming Grok Bot as the thing you replace is not the same as running Grok. The last-30-days figure is below the recurring line. Agents that click around a computer will do the wrong thing, and you own that mistake.

4. Show how much of the Grok plan is left

Stack: AI Plan Usage Limit Widget App

Nowdex shows the remaining limit on a ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, or DeepSeek coding plan, on a phone, Mac, or iPad. It does not run the model. $1,529 verified revenue last 30 days, mostly non-recurring (TrustMRR/RevenueCat, Oct 27, 2026). Verified. Medium, 85% automated. Startup cost $99.

Honest catch: “mostly non-recurring” means new buyers, not a pile of renewals. Grok is one logo on the widget. If the plan page starts showing the limit itself, the widget is harder to sell.

5. Save the Grok chat into a notes app

Stack: Auto-Save ChatGPT, Claude & Grok Chats to Obsidian

Carry saves ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok chats, plus Claude project files, into Obsidian as plain text. $531 verified revenue last 30 days, mostly non-recurring (TrustMRR/Polar, Oct 27, 2026). Verified. Easy, 90% automated.

Honest catch: Grok is one of three chats in the title. People who do not live in Obsidian will not pay. A month of mostly one-time sales is not a salary.

6. A team workspace that lists Grok among many models

Stack: All-in-One AI Workspace for Teams

Aymo puts GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, and 65+ other models in one private workspace. Grok is one name in that list. The same stack is on the DeepSeek page for the same reason. ~$6,478 MRR; $5,793 verified revenue last 30 days (TrustMRR/Stripe, Oct 28, 2026). Verified. Easy, 85% automated.

Honest catch: you are reselling access. If a buyer only wanted Grok, they already have it. Provider prices move, and you sit between the team and their prompts.

7. A cheap chat app that names xAI

Stack: One Chat App for Many AI Models

Ryddle’s tagline offers Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, and X.AI models in one place, with plans from $5 a month. The plain-English note says xAI. It does not say the product is only Grok. ~$67 MRR; $61 verified revenue last 30 days (TrustMRR/Stripe, Oct 29, 2026). Verified. Easy, 85% automated.

Honest catch: about $67 a month is under the directory median. A $5 plan leaves little room once you pay xAI for the replies. Free chat apps compete for the same person.

8. Local-model option: a Mac client that does not run Grok

Stack: Native Ollama Client App (One-Time License)

No local-only stack on this site names Grok or xAI. Ollamac Pro is the local chat app with a payment-checked total: a native Mac app on top of Ollama. The model runs on the buyer’s computer. The stack does not mention Grok. $0–$1K (verified example: $8,797 all-time). Verified. Local, Hard, 90% automated. Startup cost $99. The stack page also shows $8,797 all-time and $147 in the last 30 days (Oct 22, 2026).

Honest catch: all-time is not monthly. $147 in that later month is the number to plan around. Free clients exist, including Ollama’s own app. This does not put Grok on the machine. More of this path is in how to make money with Ollama.

Bottom line

How to make money with Grok AI, on this site, is mostly packaging beside the name. The only product whose notes say it calls a Grok model is a try-on app at about $237 MRR. The payment-checked tools that list Grok among other chats run from $67 MRR to about $6,478 MRR. The directory figure is the operator’s. None of these stacks is a local Grok.
