The short version
Kept by Clip'd
Jacob demonstrates a ready-made Grokbot prompt (from Mike Fishbein) that turns Grok into an X content-analytics agent. The agent pulls your last 60 posts, tags topic/hook/style/format, compares each post to your median performance, and sends a weekly Monday report with what’s working, what’s not, and post ideas. Jacob shows his own baseline results, explains why automated, recurring analysis beats memory or static spreadsheets, and warns against pasting AI-written copy directly to X.

Key moments
- 0:37Attribution and setup: Jacob introduces that the prompt comes from Mike Fishbein and that it converts Grokbot into an X strategist.
- 2:11Baseline method: the agent creates your baseline from your past 60 posts, establishing the comparison standard.
- 4:23Recurring nudge: the agent schedules a weekly (Monday) report so analysis becomes a habit rather than a one-off.
- 5:48Hard data surprise: the agent reports "originals beat quote posts by about 2x," contradicting Jacob's intuition.
- 8:57Concrete metrics shown: the agent reported "originals got 1,085 median views and quote posts got 947," giving a concrete benchmark to act on.

- one of the easiest ways to give yourself a better chance of going viral is to repurpose formats and topics and styles that have already performed well.2:50
- I am not a fan of using AI or an agent to write posts or replies for you.8:04
