How to free up your mental space using Grok scheduled tasks

Quick Answer: Go to “Tasks” on your dashboard, click “Add new,” name your task, set its frequency, and enter your prompt. Enable DeepSearch for deeper results. You can create up to 10 tasks. You'll receive notifications when tasks are complete and can adjust prompts anytime for improved insights.
Your brain uses the same amount of energy to remember to buy milk as it does to solve complex problems
Instead of burning precious mental energy on repetitive research and idea generation, you could have an AI assistant quietly working in the background, delivering fresh insights and content ideas on autopilot.
Well, Grok’s new scheduled tasks feature does exactly that, letting you automate research, trend spotting, and content brainstorming in the background.
What is Grok?
How It Works
Start by logging in to Grok and heading to the “Tasks” section. Here, you can create scheduled tasks that run automatically on your preferred timeline—daily, weekly, monthly, you name it.
For example, try setting up a “Weekly Content Trends Analysis” to run every Sunday. With a simple prompt like:
“Analyze trending topics in [your niche or area of interest] from the past week. Identify 5 content opportunities with recommendations for content formats.”
Grok will do the heavy lifting and deliver actionable insights right to you.
You can build up to 10 different tasks. Think beyond trends—maybe schedule a monthly roundup of viral topics, regular market research, or even a scan for the latest academic papers in your field.
