FAQ
Quick answers before you read
Can I search inside Grok message content?
Grok's history view helps you find chats, but xAI documents no way to search inside messages, and Grok inside X has no documented history 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 per-chat export on grok.com or inside X; grok.com only offers an account-wide data download. AI Toolbox exports any single chat as TXT for free, and on Premium as Markdown, JSON or PDF, 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: any single chat as TXT for free, other formats and bulk export on Premium.
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 with a search icon, and Projects; 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 delete, and export as Markdown, JSON and PDF plus bulk export (exporting a single chat as TXT is free). 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.
