FAQ
Quick answers before you read
Can I search inside Grok message content, not just titles?
grok.com's search matches conversation titles and Grok inside X has no conversation search. AI Toolbox indexes every message locally on both surfaces and searches the text itself, with each result highlighted and labelled YOU or GROK. The free plan shows the first 5 results per query; Premium shows all of them and adds Exact Match, a role filter, date presets and include or exclude chips.
How do I export or back up Grok conversations?
Grok has no native export on grok.com or inside X. AI Toolbox exports any single conversation as TXT on the free plan, and as Markdown, JSON or PDF on Premium, one at a time or in bulk from Manage Chats. The backup guide walks through both, and the suspension guide explains why a local copy matters when your history is tied to an X account.
What happens to my Grok chats if my X account is suspended?
Grok signs you in with your X account, so a suspension locks you out of your Grok history on both surfaces with no export path from inside Grok. Nothing can be pulled out after the fact; the only protection is a backup made while you still have access. AI Toolbox keeps a local, searchable copy in your browser and exports it to files you own.
Does AI Toolbox add folders and tags to Grok?
Yes. Manage Folders adds a folder tree with unlimited subfolders on both surfaces (2 root folders free, unlimited on Premium), with a Folders section in the grok.com sidebar, and Smart Tags label conversations from both surfaces by topic automatically. Chats are filed by search, nothing to drag.
Is Grok on X the same as grok.com?
Same model and the same X account, different surface. grok.com has a History sidebar, Projects and a title search; Grok inside X at x.com/i/grok has none of those. AI Toolbox treats both as one workspace: the search index, folders, Smart Tags and bookmarks cover conversations from either one.
Which of these guides need the paid plan?
None of them. Every guide explains the native Grok behaviour first and states the free-plan limit where AI Toolbox is involved. The paid features are unlimited search results with the Advanced filters, unlimited folders, bulk export and delete, and Markdown, JSON and PDF export. Premium unlocks on the X handle you enter at checkout.
Does AI Toolbox work in Edge, Brave or Firefox?
It installs from the Chrome Web Store into any Chromium browser: Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera and Arc. There is no Firefox version.
