## Where Viktor wins

Viktor keeps the request, access, and result in the place where the team already works.

## What is the main difference between Viktor and Grok Bot?

Viktor works for the team inside Slack or Microsoft Teams. Grok Bot works for one subscriber inside xAI's app. Both can finish work, but Viktor keeps the request, progress, and result in a shared channel. Grok Bot keeps the main conversation in its own app.

That means the channel can see and steer Viktor without someone carrying updates between apps.

## Is Grok Bot in Slack or Microsoft Teams?

No. Grok Bot runs in xAI's desktop and iOS apps, not inside Slack or Microsoft Teams. A user can ask Bots to work in other apps and websites, but the team talks to them in the Grok Bot app. Viktor is tagged in the channel where the work starts.

Where the result lands affects who can review it, correct it, and reuse it.

## How do Viktor and Grok Bot handle credentials?

Viktor uses scoped access for each integration, so an admin can see and revoke a connection. Grok Bots sign in with human credentials and act through each tool's user interface. xAI has not published an audit log, access-scoping, or credential-isolation plan for Grok Bot as of the last check.

UI driving can reach tools without a direct integration, but it can break when the UI changes.

## Where Grok Bot wins today

Grok Bot has a strong autonomy story. Its Bots work in parallel on their own computers, learn a routine by watching, and keep working when your laptop is closed. It also has a native iOS app and broad reach through xAI and Cursor plans.

### Always-on parallel work

Each Bot gets its own computer, can work 24/7, and can pass work to other Bots in the same thread. This is a clear strength for long projects that need several agents at once.

### Teach by showing

A Bot can watch a user complete a workflow once, save it as a routine, and run it later. That is easier to show in a first demo than a written prompt.

### Native mobile access

Grok Bot has an iOS app. xAI also names vendor talks, store support, and CRM upkeep as live uses. Android support is listed as coming.

### Built-in reach

Grok Bot is included with SuperGrok Heavy and Cursor Ultra. Its launch post reached 2.2 million impressions in 4 hours.
