AI search · Grok
Get your business recommended by Grok.
Grok, xAI's assistant, can search the web and posts on X. xAI documents less about its sources than the other assistants do, so the advice here sticks to what's known.
Where answers come from
What Grok reads before it names a business.
From xAI's own documentation wherever it exists. Sources at the bottom of the page.
The web
xAI's developer documentation lists two search tools for Grok: web search, and X search for posts, users and threads. How the Grok app combines them isn't documented.
Local businesses
xAI hasn't documented a source for local business data. Grok's local answers come from whatever its web search finds.
Your website
xAI doesn't publish a crawler name or robots.txt guidance, so there's no Grok-specific rule to add. Keep your site open to crawlers in general.
What to do
How to get recommended by Grok.
You can do every step yourself. Or we do them for you, on all six assistants, every month.
01
Get the basics right everywhere
Grok's web search finds what every other search finds: your site, your listings, your reviews. The groundwork for the other assistants is the groundwork here.
02
Write the facts down on your site
Services, prices, areas and hours, stated plainly, on pages any crawler can read.
03
Be findable on X
X search is one of Grok's two documented tools. A business account with real updates, and customers who mention you there, give it something to find.
04
Skip unofficial bot names
Names like “GrokBot” only appear in third-party lists. Adding robots.txt rules for them does nothing you can count on.
We do all of this for you, on six AI assistants.
$399/mo billed annually or $499 month to month. No setup fee.
Crawlers
No documented crawler.
xAI documents no crawler, so this page has no crawler table. Our checker covers the assistants that do.
Check your site in 15 seconds.
Free: robots.txt and firewall, for every AI crawler above.
FAQ
Questions people ask.
Is there a Grok crawler I should allow?
Not one xAI documents. Names like GrokBot appear in third-party bot directories only. If your site is open to crawlers in general, there's nothing Grok-specific to change.
Do I need to post on X to show up in Grok?
Not to be found through the web. But X search is one of the two search tools xAI documents for Grok, so activity on X is one more place it can find your business.
Does Vyzz track Grok?
Yes. Grok is one of the six assistants we ask your customers' questions on every day, alongside ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot and Perplexity.
Sources and how we checked
Checked October 12, 2026. AI assistants change how they search often; the vendor's own documentation is the final word. Grok is a trademark of xAI, and Vyzz is not affiliated with it. Spot something out of date? Email hello@vyzz.io.
