Connect Bytown to Grok and Grok Bot

Add one custom connector, sign in to Bytown once, and give Grok Bot its first routine. Setup takes about a minute.

Updated

On Grok Business or Enterprise, a team admin adds the connector first. Grok Bot is in beta, so its plugin settings may move.

Connect in 4 steps

1

Connect your ad accounts in Bytown

Grok sees exactly the accounts you connect in Bytown, and nothing else. See Connect your ad accounts.

2

Add Bytown in Grok Bot or Grok

In Grok Bot, open Settings → Plugins and add a custom MCP server named Bytown with the connector URL. No headers are needed, because sign-in uses OAuth.

Using Grok chat instead? Go to grok.com/connectors, choose New Connector, then Custom, and paste the same URL.

Connector URL
https://ads.bytown.co/mcp
3

Sign in and pick your business

Grok opens Bytown's sign-in page. Choose the business the bot should work on and allow access.

4

Give the bot its first routine

Write the job the way you'd brief a new hire. Name the plugin with @Bytown so the bot reaches for the right tools.

First routine
Every Monday at 7 AM, use @Bytown to check my ad accounts. Post the three biggest problems to #marketing and stage fixes for my approval. Never change a budget without asking me.

Fixes from a routine arrive as summaries for you to confirm in Grok. More routines are in Prompts and routines.

Switch business or disconnect

In the Bytown business Grok works on, open Connections → AI assistants → Other MCP assistants and choose Disconnect next to Grok. It may be listed under the name it registered with. The bot loses access at once and your ad accounts stay untouched. Connect again to pick a different business.

Grok facts checked October 2026 against Grok's connector docs. Bytown is not affiliated with the makers of Grok.

Common questions

Can Grok Bot change my budgets on a schedule?

It can stage changes on a schedule, and Bytown tells the bot to get your yes before it confirms. Keep "never change a budget without asking me" in the routine, and confirm fixes in Grok when they arrive. A change nobody confirms within 15 minutes expires with nothing changed.

Do I need a paid Grok plan?

Grok Bot comes with paid Cursor and SuperGrok plans, and Grok Business admins control connectors for their team. Bytown itself works on Pro and Max with no connector fee. Check your Grok plan first, then add the Bytown URL as a custom connector or plugin.
