Elon Musk’s owned AI chatbot, Grok xAI has launched a canvas-like feature for editing and creating documents and basic apps.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the company on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, announced Grok Studio, which is available for free and paying Grok users.

Grok’s account on X stated, “Grok can now generate documents, code, reports and browser games.”

“Grok Studio will open your content in a separate window, allowing both you and Grok to collaborate on the content together,” it added.

Notably, Grok is the latest chatbot to get a specific workspace for tinkering with software and writing projects.

However, Grok Studio does not seem materially different from the canvas-like tools that come before it.

What to expect?

Grok Studio lets you preview HTML snippets and run code in programming languages like Python, C++, and JavaScript.

All content opens in a window to the right-hand side of Grok’s responses.

Grok Studio is made potentially more useful by another Grok upgrade with the integration of Google Drive.

To note, you can now attach files from a Google Drive account to a Grok prompt. According to xAI, Grok can work with documents, spreadsheets and slides.
