The directly fetched SpaceXAI launch page is titled 'Introducing Grok Bot' and names the product throughout.
Open source receipt - originating speaker
SpaceXAI's official site published the August 11 early-beta launch notice.
The canonical x.ai page returned HTTP 200, carries SpaceXAI branding, and states that the company is launching Grok Bot.
Open source receipt - reporter publication
The launch notice is a byline-less first-party SpaceXAI publication dated August 11, 2026.
The directly fetched page exposes its title, publication date, company footer, and official domain but no individual byline.
Open source receipt - atomic claim
SpaceXAI launched Grok Bot in early beta on August 11, 2026 as always-on AI teammates that can work across apps and continue cloud work when the user steps away.
The launch date, beta status, product description, and cloud-work behavior appear directly on the official announcement.
Open source receipt - atomic claim
SpaceXAI documentation describes each Grok Bot as a persistent named agent with a browser, filesystem, terminal, memory, files, sessions, and preferences that persist across turns.
The directly fetched official documentation states these capabilities and persistence properties explicitly.
Open source receipt - primary source evidence
The official launch page retains the August 11 launch, early-beta status, always-on agent framing, and cloud-computer description.
The canonical page and official documentation were directly fetched; the hash covers the URL, title, and retained launch and cloud-computer statements.
Open source receipt - response correction
The current documentation says all Bots on one account share one user-scoped cloud computer, with separate screens but not separate security boundaries.
The official computer-and-apps page directly clarifies the account-level sharing model behind the launch page's 'computer of their own' wording.
Open source receipt - resolution evidence status
The launch and documented persistence model are retained; the product remains an early beta and no registered-outlet coverage was directly retained in this window.
First-party launch material is available, while registered-source search did not yield a directly fetchable qualifying coverage page.
