Polytask vs Grok Bot
Grok Bot gives you AI teammates to set up and manage. With Polytask, you tell us the job and it gets done in the software you already use.
why polytask
Polytask is the simpler way to hand over back-office work
There’s much less to manage
With Grok Bot, you create Bots, give each a name and a job, sign them in to your accounts and share them with your team. With Polytask, you describe the job and we set up your first agents with you.
It goes straight to your software
Agents connect directly to apps like Xero, Outlook and Fergus, so a redesigned web page is less likely to stop the job. They only use a website when there’s no other way in.
It starts by itself and talks to your customers
When an email or text comes in, the agent gets to work. It can reply to customers and suppliers from your business number.
