Grok Bot can now phone people and businesses for you and send a summary, Musk says

Elon Musk said on 25 October 2026 that Grok Bot can now call a person or a business for you, make a request on your behalf, take notes and send you a summary of the conversation [1]. The official Grok Bot changelog does not list the feature yet: its latest public release is version 0.75.5 from 23 October [2].

What did Musk announce?

Elon Musk said on X on 25 October 2026 that Grok Bot can now call people and businesses for its users. He posted it at 15:35 CET, quoting an independent account's rundown of an upcoming Grok Bot version 0.77 [1][3]. By early on 26 October the post had about 2.1 million views [1].

According to the post Musk quoted, from the X account @alexmichaelio, the Bot can dial someone, sit on hold, press keys and get transferred while you watch a live transcript [3]. The same rundown lists a Messages on Mac setup screen that is still switched off, joining a private Tailscale network once an admin approves it, a payments screen and sharing invites that need Premium or Ultra [3].

Is phone calling in the official release notes?

Not when we checked at about 03:00 CET on 26 October. The official Grok Bot changelog still ends at version 0.75.5 from 23 October, with no entry for outbound calls. That release added a Vault for logins, cards and contact information, plus email forwarding [2].

Older changelog entries about voice calls describe users talking to their own Bot, for example voice calls that can draw on earlier calls and recent chat, not the Bot phoning third parties [2]. The official @bot account's latest original post, from 23 October, announced the Vault rather than calls [5].

What do the prerelease builds show?

Grok Bot 0.77 prerelease builds showed a calls panel, according to independent build watchers on X. The account @blankspeaker listed a calls panel, a pressed keys readout and an on hold status among changes spotted between builds 0.77.0-pre.3 and pre.19 [4].

Our read

Opinion: Phone calls are where agents leave the screen and meet hold music, phone trees and people who never agreed to talk to software. A post from Musk sets expectations, but the release notes will show what actually ships, and whether the business on the other end is told it is talking to an AI is the first detail we want to see.

What we could not verify

• Whether outbound calling is available to users now, and from which app version; the public changelog ends at 0.75.5 and no 0.77 release notes were published when we checked.
• Which plans, countries and phone numbers the feature covers and whether it costs extra; neither Musk nor the official Grok Bot channels said.
• Whether the person or business on the other end is told they are speaking with an AI agent.
• Whether the other features spotted in prerelease builds, such as payments, Tailscale and Messages on Mac, will ship in that form; the build watchers themselves say they may not.
