Create a Grok Project and keep files in one workspace

Create a Grok Project and keep files in one workspace

A Project is a Grok workspace with its own chats, uploaded files, and instructions. Use it when the work lasts longer than one thread.

Open Projects on the right host

  1. Sign in at grok.com in Chrome or another Chromium browser.
  2. Open grok.com/project, or use Projects in the sidebar if you already see it.
  3. Create a new Project and give it a name you will recognize in a week (client, course, repo, campaign).

xAI's FAQ calls out that some hosts like grok.x.ai miss features such as Projects. Stay on grok.com when the sidebar looks empty.

Load the workspace

  1. Add instructions that only this Project should follow (tone, audience, hard constraints).
  2. Upload the PDFs, sheets, decks, or code the Project should keep referencing.
  3. Start chats inside that Project. Later threads in the same Project reuse the files and instructions you already set.

Ask against the uploads the same way you would in a normal chat: summarize, extract a table, compare two docs, or draft from the brief.

Pitfalls

  • A chat started outside the Project does not automatically see Project files. Open the Project first, then chat.
  • File caps still apply per surface. If an upload fails, check size and type the same way you would in a regular chat.
  • Team sharing and org controls live under Grok Business and Enterprise. Personal Projects stay on your account.
