I'm one week in on heavy grok usage. I didn't think I'd say this, but for personal use, I'm considering cancelling my OpenAI plan.

The one thing I wish grok had was more separation of the UI from X itself. The interface being so coupled to X puts me off and makes it feel like a second-hand citizen. I like ChatGPTs minimalist UI.



I find grok to be the best overall experience for the types of tasks I try to give AI (mostly: analyze pdf, perform and proofread OCR, translate Medieval Latin and Hebrew, remind me how to do various things in python or SwiftUI). ChatGPT/gemini/copilot all fight me occasionally, but grok just tries to help. And the hallucinations aren’t as frequent, at least anecdotally.


Theres grok.com which is standalone and with its own UI


There's also a standalone Grok app at least on iOS.


I wish they did also dedicated keyboard app like SwiftKey that has copilot integration


Don't they have a standalone Grok app now? I thought I saw that. [edit] ah some sibling comments mention this as well


There’s a grok app for iPhone that’s basically the same as ChatGPT/deepseek/mistral/gemini/claude



Agree. Grok at the moment is king.

I just wish they had folders (or projects) like OpenAi has...


They still haven’t released an API for 3


I canceled my GPT, Grok is incredible.
