Grok, the chatbot from Elon Musk’s AI company, xAI, has gained a canvas-like feature for editing and creating documents and basic apps.
Called Grok Studio, the feature was announced on X late Tuesday. It’s available for both free and paying Grok users on Grok.com
“Grok can now generate documents, code, reports and browser games,” wrote the official Grok account on X. “Grok Studio will open your content in a separate window, allowing both you and Grok to collaborate on the content together.”
Today, we are releasing the first version of Grok studio, adding code execution and google drive support.

Grok is the latest chatbot to get a dedicated workspace for tinkering with software and writing projects. OpenAI launched a similar capability, Canvas, for ChatGPT in October. Anthropic was one of the first to the punch, with Artifacts for Claude.
Grok Studio doesn’t seem materially different from the canvas-like tools that’ve come before it. It 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 announced today: integration with Google Drive. Now you can attach files from a Google Drive account to a Grok prompt. Grok can work with documents, spreadsheets, and slides, according to xAI.
