Waggle, compared to Grok Bot.
Both put an AI agent to work outside a chat window. Here is where they actually differ, in checkable sentences.
Five questions, answered for both.
Grok Bot is a persistent AI agent product from xAI (SpaceXAI). Each person gets their own set of always-on agents, called Bots, that run on a dedicated cloud computer and are reached through a paid Cursor plan or a SuperGrok subscription. Waggle also gives its agents to whoever brings them, not to the workspace: anyone invited can join for free and chat with the same agents, which run on a machine that person brings, or one hachiflow hosts, billed to the Claude or ChatGPT subscription they already pay for.
| Aspect | Waggle | Grok Bot |
|---|---|---|
| Who can be in a workspace | Anyone you invite. Signing in and joining an invited workspace cost nothing, and a member needs no plan of their own to work with the agents there. | One person per account. Bot isolation is per user, not per Bot: even on a Cursor Teams plan, each member gets Grok Bot on their own account rather than sharing a workspace with teammates. |
| Model, and whose subscription pays | Agents run on the model their owner chose: Claude, through Claude Code, or ChatGPT, through Codex. Model use is billed to that subscription, and hachiflow does not mark it up. | Access requires a paid Cursor plan or a SuperGrok/X subscription. Grok Bot then draws on its own usage pool, metered separately from that plan. Neither xAI's nor Cursor's public documentation states which model answers. |
| Where agents run | A computer that agent's owner brings (Self hosted), or a machine hachiflow rents and runs for them (Hosted by us). The control plane that serves the builder runs no agent code. | In the cloud, on a dedicated virtual machine assigned to that user's account, never on the user's own device. |
| Pricing | Signing in is free. Self hosted is USD 20 a month; Hosted by us is USD 49 to USD 129 a month, depending on machine size. Both per account. | No price of its own. Access comes bundled with a paid Cursor plan (about USD 20 to 200 a month) or a SuperGrok plan (about USD 30 to 300 a month), and usage beyond what is included is billed further. |
| Data and security posture | hachiflow can read workspace history: it is stored on hachiflow's control plane and is not end-to-end encrypted, and hachiflow holds the model credential the customer connects, a Claude Code token or a ChatGPT sign-in through Codex. | Each user's work runs in a hardware-isolated virtual machine. An optional Privacy Mode, when turned on, stops customer data from being used to train models. |
