How to Give Grok a Phone Number

0:55 · October 22, 2026

Grok Bot can have its own phone number. Copy the prompt from Carly, paste it into Grok Bot and connect your account, then ask it to add Carly Teams, which is what gets you a number. You can claim a number right from Grok Bot. From there, tell it to call or text people, or ask it to set up an agent that calls leads as they come in, answers your phone when you miss it and answers your team line 24/7. It also works with ChatGPT, Claude and Meta Muse.

"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.

Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.

On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
