Free vs paid Grok Bot templates: what you actually get
Yes, you can find Grok Bot templates free of charge. The official x.ai guide says any Grok Bot user can share a bot as a template and publish it as a public link, and that you will see many of them online. Because this page is published by ExtraHeads, an independent storefront that sells paid templates, you should weigh the information below with that in mind. Below is what any template delivers and what a paid role adds.
Are there free Grok Bot templates?
Yes, you can find free templates online. According to the official x.ai guide to templates (opened 9 November 2026), any user can share a bot as a template from its settings. Creators share these links publicly, and some sites collect them into free directories. Because anyone can create a shareable link, the quality of these free versions varies widely, and there is no official count of how many exist.
What does any Grok Bot template include, free or paid?
The official guide describes a template as a blueprint, or a recipe, not a meal. A template packages the creator's instructions, relevant memories, skills, and specific plugins. Custom code, scripts, and non-standard plugins such as MCP servers are not included. Any plugins the template requires must be reinstalled in your new copy after you add it.
What do you get when you pay for an ExtraHeads template?
ExtraHeads sells ready-made marketing roles for a one-time payment. You can buy individual roles for $19 USD each, or get all 22 roles for $99 USD. Buying the full set saves money compared to buying them separately for $418.
A paid ExtraHeads template includes:
- The role's instructions
- Its skills and routines
It does not include:
- Someone else's computer or logins
- Chat history or custom code
You can check what a role produces before you buy. Every role has a public page with its scope, out-of-scope notes, and FAQ, such as the SEO role which includes a real screen recording. We also publish sample results on our samples page using a fictional brand, Kettle & Crow Coffee, a small US online roaster with a coffee subscription. Every one of the 22 roles has a sample.
What does a paid template not give you?
Buying an ExtraHeads template does not give you access to Grok Bot itself. You still need your own Premium, Super, or Ultra plan under The X Subscription to use these roles, as detailed on our getting started page. As shown in the previous section, the template does not include custom code or logins.
Because the templates are digital blueprints, you receive no human marketing service or guaranteed business results. The output depends entirely on the data and tasks you provide in the chat. Finally, the roles do not automatically network with each other, so they only work as a marketing team after you add several copies and assign work.
How do you check a template before you add it?
The official x.ai documentation says you are going to see a lot of templates online. It advises evaluating them just like you would evaluate skills or software. To do this, always view the details and read the context and integrations before installing anything.
For an ExtraHeads template, the steps are: Open the template link, select Add to Grok Bot, review the template, and confirm Add Bot to create your own copy. During the review step, compare what the screen lists with the scope on the matching role page and make sure it is what you expect.
When is a free template enough, and when does a paid one make sense?
A free template is usually enough if you are just testing features or need a basic starting point for a personal project. They work well when you have the time to rewrite instructions and troubleshoot errors yourself. If you are learning how to brief an AI, starting with a free option makes sense.
A paid template makes sense when you want a role with a published scope and a sample you can check before you pay. For example, if you need a social media manager, a paid role comes with its instructions, skills, and routines already written. You can also check what the bot can actually do for that specific role.
How do delivery and refunds work for paid ExtraHeads templates?
When you buy from ExtraHeads, you enter a delivery email and pay a one-time NOWPayments cryptocurrency invoice. We do not collect credit cards. Once NOWPayments reports the payment as finished, your template link is emailed automatically and displayed on the return page. Crypto confirmations can take some time, and no exact timeframe is guaranteed. A new template URL can be opened by anyone who has it, so ExtraHeads does not promise a private link.
Because templates are digital items that cannot be returned, ExtraHeads does not offer voluntary change-of-mind refunds after delivery. EU and UK buyers must tick a box at checkout to request immediate delivery, which acknowledges they lose their 14-day right of withdrawal once the link is delivered. If the link has not been delivered yet, the right of withdrawal still applies. Statutory rights for faulty or not-as-described content stay intact. If a link is undelivered or broken, it will be resent or refunded. You can read the exact terms on our refund policy page.
