175k travel points found via a Grok Bot tracker

His Grok Bot logs into all 16 of his airline and hotel loyalty programs and puts every balance, status tier and expiry date in one place. It found 175k points across Marriott, Hilton, KrisFlyer and others, signs him up for programs he was missing, tracks his card perks and checks flights, hotels, visas and dates for his next trip.

Our notes

What it takes
Grok Bot with access to your airline and hotel loyalty accounts (he has 16) and your card's perks. He shared no template and says he just tells the bot what to do; ours is built from his post.
Where it breaks
Logins and two-step codes, which he didn't explain, and reading 175k points as cash: he gave no dollar value. Visa rules still need a check on the official page.
Human checkpoint
He has it sign him up for programs he's missing. In our version it asks before joining anything, and you make every booking, redemption and transfer.
Tools involved

Copy the prompt

Ours Our version, built from his post. He didn't share a prompt; in replies he said he just tells the bot what to do. Fill in the [BRACKETS].

Keep track of my travel points and perks. Read and report only. Programs: [list each airline and hotel program and how you can see it, e.g. I log you in, or I forward the monthly statement emails]. Cards: [card names, so you can check their travel and dining perks]. 1. For each program, record the balance, status tier and the date points expire. Put them all in one table, soonest expiry first. 2. Flag any points expiring in the next 90 days, and the cheapest way that program lets you keep them alive. 3. List my card perks with their limits and reset dates, like dining credits and lounge access, and flag any I haven't used this period. 4. Suggest big hotel or airline programs I'm not in that fit where I travel. Don't join anything; give me the list and wait for my yes. 5. When I tell you where I'm going and when, check flights, hotels, visa rules for my passport and the dates, and tell me where my points or perks could cover part of it. Never book, redeem, transfer or buy points, or pay for anything. Don't change any account settings.

Approval rule

🛡
In our version the bot reads balances and reports. It asks before joining any program, and never books, redeems or transfers points, or pays, without your yes. Sending, buying, posting, and deleting always need a human.

Set it up

  1. List your loyalty programs and cards. He has 16 programs.
  2. Decide how the bot sees each one. He has it log in; forwarding statement emails is a lower-access option.
  3. Paste the prompt and let it build the table.
  4. Check the expiry flags first. Those are the points you lose if you do nothing.
  5. Say yes or no to each program it suggests joining.
  6. Before your next trip, tell it where and when, and decide yourself what to book and which points to use.

Common failures

⚠
  • Reading 175k points as a dollar amount. Each program's points are worth something different, and he gave no value.
  • Logins stalling on two-step codes. He didn't say how his handles them, so expect to approve some sign-ins yourself.
  • Joining every program it finds. More accounts means more logins to keep track of; join the ones you'll actually use.
  • Trusting visa or entry rules without checking the official government page before you go.

Variations

  • Run it monthly and only message you when something is about to expire.
  • Add your card statement credits, like travel or dining credits, so none lapse unused.
  • Pair it with a flight price watch for the route you're saving points for.
