Constraints

Requires Grok Bot access. Prepare: 1) exact product name or model; 2) two or more shop links; 3) target price; 4) preferred daily check time. Source does not specify the bot's web-scraping mechanism or cost terms.

What they did

TheGrokBotGuide published a Grok Bot price-watch tutorial. The core approach: give the bot an exact product and multiple shops, check once daily; return unknown for unreadable pages and stay silent, messaging only when a verified drop below target occurs. Credits YouTube channel Parker Prompts, '9 Grok Bot Use Cases You Should Try ASAP' (price watch at 4:17).

How it went

Author-reported (not tested): After setup, the bot returns daily price, stock status, and check time per shop; failed pages return unknown instead of false reports; messages only on verified drops.

Worth knowing

Common mistakes (author warning): avoid naming a product family (cheapest listing is often a different model); don't let a failed page count as a price change; hourly checks are unnecessary—daily is sufficient and costs less usage. Site has not tested shop page scraping stability; source does not explain how the bot handles anti-bot or login walls; no pricing information provided.

Steps

  1. Create and name the Bot

    Create a new Bot in Grok Bot and label it Price watch.

  2. Write standing rules in description

    Enter standing rules in the Bot's description: specify the exact product model, list shop links to monitor, state that alerts only trigger on confirmed prices below target, and that unreadable/failed pages return unknown.

  3. Paste the first-scan prompt and verify configuration

    Paste the prompt below into the Bot, fill in your variables (product, links, target price, time), run the first scan, and confirm the output format.

    Execution prompt · Source text。Bot chat input; first scan and routine setup

    Check the price of [exact product] at [shop links]. Only count the exact configuration. For each shop give: price, in stock yes or no, and the time checked. If a page won't load or the price isn't shown, write unknown; never guess. Message me only if a price is verified below [target price]. Then set this as a routine every day at [time].

  4. Verify unknown behavior on a failed page

    Test with a broken or unloadable link to confirm the Bot returns unknown instead of guessing a price.

  5. Schedule daily morning check

    Have the Bot set the above workflow as a daily recurring routine at your chosen time.

This block is the prompt. Ads are never placed here.

Check the price of [exact product] at [shop links]. Only count the exact configuration. For each shop give: price, in stock yes or no, and the time checked. If a page won't load or the price isn't shown, write unknown; never guess. Message me only if a price is verified below [target price]. Then set this as a routine every day at [time].

Before first run, test with a dead link to verify 'unknown' behavior and prevent false alerts.
