Grok desktop client with native performance. Multi-provider support, offline history, conversation search, export & keyboard shortcuts.
Askimo transforms Grok from a simple chat interface into a full AI studio — with RAG, code block execution, MCP tool integrations, and multi-provider switching.
Use Grok's Grok models through a native desktop interface with full API access.
Faster than web interfaces with native performance, keyboard shortcuts, and offline history.
Keep all your Grok conversations searchable and organized in one place.
Use Grok alongside OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, or Ollama without switching applications.
Connect once. Every conversation is stored locally on your machine, searchable, exportable, and available offline. You own your history.
Add your Grok credentials in Settings. Askimo connects through the official API. No middleman, no data stored on Askimo servers.
Chat is just the start. Index your docs with RAG, connect tools via MCP, run local agents with Skills, and automate workflows with AI Plans. (RAG, MCP, Skills, AI Plans)
Grok is one of many. Switch to Ollama for private tasks, Claude for long documents, or Gemini for speed. All in the same interface, no extra setup.
Index your docs, code, and notes. AI answers grounded in your own knowledge base, not the open internet.
AI agents that read files, run commands, call APIs, and execute git operations. Not just chat.
Run AI agents directly on your local files and project directories via Gemini CLI, Claude Code or Codex CLI.
Chain multiple AI prompts into automated workflows. Each step builds on the last: research, analyse, write, all in one run.

Common questions about using Grok with Askimo App.
Yes, you'll need an API key from console.x.ai. Askimo connects to Grok through the official xAI API. Grok's API gives you access to the same models available on the Grok web interface, with the additional productivity features Askimo provides on top.
Yes. Askimo supports multiple AI providers simultaneously. A useful pattern is to use Grok for queries that benefit from its real-time X/Twitter data access, while using Claude or Ollama for tasks that need deeper reasoning or complete privacy — all without switching applications.
No, Askimo is an independent third-party application that connects to various AI providers including Grok through their public APIs. Askimo is not affiliated with xAI or X Corp in any way.
Grok's primary differentiator is real-time access to X/Twitter data, which gives it unique awareness of current events, trending topics, and social discourse. For most coding or writing tasks, ChatGPT or Claude are stronger. Grok is most valuable when you specifically need current social or news context.
Askimo App isn't limited to Grok. Connect multiple providers and switch based on your needs.
