How to organize Grok chats into folders
AI Toolbox adds folders to Grok. Click the round button in the bottom-right corner, then Manage Folders. Click Add, then Add Folder to make one. Open the folder and use Add, then Add Chats to fill it. On grok.com, your folders also show as My Folders on the left. Free: 2 top-level folders with unlimited subfolders.
Step by step
Step 1: Open Manage Folders
On grok.com or on x.com/i/grok, click the round button in the bottom-right corner. In the AI Toolbox list, click Manage Folders.
You should see: A window called Manage Folders. If you have no folders yet, it says This folder is empty.
Step 2: Create your first folder
Click the Add button, then click Add Folder. A box appears that says New folder name.
Type a name, for example Work, and click Add Folder again (or press Enter).
You should see: Your new folder in the list. On the free plan, a bar also shows how many of your 2 folders you have used.
On grok.com you can also create a folder right on the left side of the page: click the + next to My Folders. Folder names can be up to 100 characters long.
Step 3: Open the folder
Click the folder's name. The window now shows what is inside it, and its name appears in the path at the top.
You should see: No chats in this folder yet. and buttons such as Add, Move folder and Rename folder.
Step 4: Add chats to the folder
Inside the folder, click Add, then Add Chats. A list of your chats appears.
Type part of a title in the Search chat titles box to find a chat faster. Click each chat you want, so a check mark appears. Then click Add selected at the bottom.
You should see: The message Chats added to folder and your chats listed under Chats in this folder.
A chat can be in more than one folder. The list shows a small note when a chat is already in another folder.
Step 5: Make a subfolder inside it (optional)
While you are inside a folder, click Add, then Add subfolder. Type a name and click Add Folder.
Subfolders work like folders, and they never count toward the free limit.
You should see: Your subfolder under Subfolders inside the folder.
Step 6: Open a chat from a folder
Click any chat inside a folder. It opens in a new tab.
On grok.com, you can also open chats from My Folders on the left side of the page. Click a folder to open it, then click a chat.
You should see: The chat opens in Grok.
Inside a folder, the Sort by menu sets the order of the chats: Recent puts the newest first, and A-Z or Z-A sorts them by name. Manual only changes the order of folders, so chats stay newest first.
Step 7: Rename, remove or delete
Inside a folder, click Rename folder to change its name. To take chats out, or to delete a subfolder, tick their boxes and click Remove, then Remove again to confirm.
To delete a top-level folder, go back to the first screen (click Manage Folders in the path at the top), tick the folder and click Remove. Removing never deletes the chats from Grok.
You should see: The message Items successfully removed.
That's it. You have finished every tutorial in this section.
If something doesn't look right
I don't see My Folders on Grok inside X
That is expected. Grok on X has no chat list on the left side, so AI Toolbox has nowhere to add it. Use the round button, then Manage Folders. On grok.com, if My Folders is missing, open Settings from the AI Toolbox list and switch on Show folder tree in the sidebar.
The Add button is gray on the first screen
The free plan allows 2 top-level folders and you have both. You can still make unlimited subfolders: open a folder, click Add, then Add subfolder. For more top-level folders, upgrade to Premium.
Can I drag a chat into a folder?
No. Grok chats are never dragged into folders. Use Add Chats inside a folder, as in step 4, or tick chats in Search History, Manage Chats or Smart Tags and click Add to Folder.
A chat in my folder shows (deleted chat)
Either the chat was deleted in Grok, or it was filed on the other site. grok.com and X have separate chats. Open the folder on the site where you filed the chat to see it.
There is no Move to folder in Grok's own chat menu
Right. On Grok, chats go into folders from AI Toolbox only: Add Chats inside a folder, or the Add to Folder button after you tick chats in Search History, Manage Chats or Smart Tags.
Free and Premium
The free plan gives you 2 top-level folders, and you can make as many subfolders inside them as you like. Adding chats is free. Premium gives you unlimited folders and lets you export a whole folder.
- Free: 2 top-level folders, unlimited subfolders, and adding chats is free.
- Premium: unlimited folders and Export Folder to save every chat in a folder at once.
- Folders are saved to your AI Toolbox account and appear on both grok.com and X. Each chat opens on the site where it lives.
What Grok does on its own
Grok keeps your chats in one list, newest first. xAI's FAQ explains how to open that history on grok.com and delete a chat with the trash button. xAI does not describe folders for personal chats there.
AI Toolbox folders are only for organizing. They nest as deep as you like, one chat can be in several folders, and filing a chat never changes it in Grok.

Questions people ask
Can you make folders in Grok?
Yes, with the AI Toolbox extension. Click the round AI Toolbox button, choose Manage Folders, then Add and Add Folder. Open a folder and use Add, then Add Chats, to fill it. On grok.com the folders also show as a My Folders list on the left side of the page.
How many Grok folders can I create for free?
The free AI Toolbox plan allows 2 top-level folders for Grok, and there is no limit on subfolders inside them, so you can build a structure like Work, then Clients, then each client. Adding chats to folders is free. Premium removes the top-level limit and adds folder export.
Do Grok folders work on X as well as grok.com?
Yes. AI Toolbox saves your Grok folders to your X account, so the same folders appear on grok.com and on x.com/i/grok. On X you open them from the round button and Manage Folders. Each chat still opens on the site where it lives, because the two sites keep separate chats.
Does deleting a folder delete my Grok chats?
No. Removing a folder in AI Toolbox only removes the folder and its links to chats. The chats stay in your Grok history exactly as they were. Taking a chat out of a folder works the same way and never deletes anything from Grok.
How do I put a Grok chat into a folder?
Open Manage Folders from the round AI Toolbox button, open the folder, and click Add, then Add Chats. Click the chats you want and press Add selected. You can also tick chats in Search History, Manage Chats or Smart Tags and click Add to Folder. Chats are not dragged in.
