Bots
Bots you set up with a single prompt
A bot does not hand you an answer: it gets installed. It asks for the connections, asks about what it is missing from your business and stays running. Here is what the order that sets it up contains, and 8 bots adapted to the tools an agency actually has.
Summary
An AI bot is an assistant you configure with a single prompt, connect to your tools and leave running on a fixed cadence. Unlike a prompt, which is used once and returns text, a bot is set up once and works many times. This page explains the 5 parts the order contains and gathers 8 ready-made bots.

The 5 parts of the order that sets up a bot
They came from measuring 227 real orders, not from an opinion. The fifth is the one most often forgotten: of those 227, only 21% set an explicit permission limit.
| Part | What it defines | How it sounds |
|---|---|---|
| The cadence | When it runs: daily, weekly, or only when you trigger it. | “Set me up a new bot with a weekly run.” |
| The connection | Which tools it needs, and that it guides you to connect them instead of assuming them. | “Guide me to connect my ads account and the sheet where I want the result.” |
| The work | The steps in concrete verbs, and above all WHERE the result lands. | “Write one row per test with these columns: hypothesis, audience, budget.” |
| The elicitation | What it will ask you before the first run, so it does not guess your context. | “Ask me which campaigns matter and what difference I count as significant.” |
| The limit | What it cannot do without your explicit yes. It is the part almost everyone forgets. | “Never pause, activate or change budget without my approval.” |
The 8 bots, and what each one is for
- Bot: article ideas every morning
Daily bot that crosses what is resonating in your niche with the topics you care about, and leaves 3 to 5 ideas of what to write today.

Bot that learns your voice from your own posts and leaves the week's drafts ready to review, without publishing anything on its own.
- Bot: find the videos that broke the average
Bot that searches your niche for videos that performed far above their channel's average, and tells you what they did differently.

Bot that builds a 5-role local SEO team to work the site of a business with a service and a city, with no doorway pages.
- Bot: synced content calendar
Daily bot that keeps your content calendar up to date from wherever you plan it, with no copying dates by hand.
- Bot: test backlog for your ads
Weekly bot that reviews your ads, explains why the winners win, and leaves the next round of tests written for you to approve.

Frequently asked questions
- What is an AI bot?
- An AI bot is an assistant you configure with a single prompt, connect to your tools (email, calendar, spreadsheet, social networks) and leave running on a fixed cadence or waiting for you to trigger it. The difference from a normal prompt is that a prompt produces an answer, and a bot stays installed doing the work.
- How is a bot different from a prompt?
- A prompt is used once and returns text. A bot is set up once and works many times: it asks for the connections, asks about what it is missing from your context, runs on the cadence you give it and leaves the result where you open it. A bot is a prompt plus a cadence, some connections and a permission limit.
- Where do you set these bots up?
- On Grok Bot and Rakazo, which are the ones that support this order format today. The order pattern (cadence, connection, work, elicitation and limit) works the same in Claude Code or in any agent that can save a configuration and run on a schedule.
- Is it safe to leave a bot running on its own?
- It depends on the limit you put in the prompt. A bot that only reads and leaves you a draft is safe. One with permission to publish, move budget or write to your clients on your behalf should never graduate to autonomy, no matter how many times it has done it right. The practical rule: review the first 10 runs by hand, and always review anything that touches money or clients.
- How much does it cost to set one up?
- The prompt is free. The real cost is the platform the bot runs on and the tools it connects. Before setting it up, check the limits of the plan you have: a bot that runs every 6 hours uses far more than a weekly one.
The bots on this page are adapted from the botdirectory.ai directory (MIT, Copyright 2026 Inbox Zero Inc.), with credit to each author. Our version names where the result lands, requires numeric thresholds and adds the permission limit. If you also want to see the AI terms explained, the glossary covers them.
