Order Starbucks by voice from a Tesla while driving
A user had Grok Bot in a Tesla place a Starbucks order, confirming the drink and total by voice before ordering.
Done withGrok Bot
- What they did
- The poster said they had been testing Grok Bot in a Tesla for a couple of weeks and used the in-car version, not a phone, while FSD was driving. They had already signed the bot into Starbucks, then ordered by voice; Grok confirmed the drink and total before placing the order, and the poster said “Barista” was just the name of one of their Grok Bots.
- How it went
- It successfully placed a Starbucks order hands-free, and commenters noted the total shown was $7.30. The thread does not spell out the full linking flow, and the poster said this ordering setup was currently limited to paid Grok tiers.
- Worth knowing
- The main catch in the thread is access: the poster said this was available to SuperGrok Heavy subscribers at the time, though other commenters said some Tesla Grok features worked on the lower $30 SuperGrok plan.
Try it yourself with Grok Bot
When I say I want coffee, order my usual from [Starbucks or other cafe] at the location nearest [my route or destination]: [drink, size, customizations]. Read back the drink, pickup location, and total to me out loud and wait for me to say yes before you place the order.
