Jordan Rafealov · 5 Lazy Ways To Make Money With Grok Bot (For Beginners) ↗

One of 4 gigs covered in this video

What It Is

An AI agent (the creator uses Grok's bot builder) reads the last 24 hours of posts on X about making money with AI, then drafts a daily issue in Beehiiv with short summaries, sources and a practical tip, plus three X posts to promote it. You review and approve before anything sends. The creator's projection is about $52 a day once the list reaches 8,000 readers running two ads at around $2 per click.

The Pitch

The creator calls it the laziest of his bots because curation and drafting are automated and you only approve. He says turning long posts into quick summaries with a takeaway gives readers real value, and shows a working newsletter design produced by the bot.

Who It’s Best For

Someone interested in a niche who will keep growing a subscriber list and check each issue for accuracy before it sends.

The Truth (as we see it)

The $52-a-day figure is a projection that assumes 8,000 readers, which the creator does not show he has; building a list that size usually takes months of promotion. Summarizing other people's posts is legal in principle, but heavy reliance on others' content adds little original value, and AI summaries need fact-checking. The creator gives prompts free in one community and sells one-click bot templates in his paid "AI Systems Society" group.
