How to deploy a Twitter Grok AI agent on Fleek

Grok, built by xAI, is a cutting-edge conversational AI designed to give helpful, truthful answers with a dash of humor and an outside perspective on humanity. It’s powered by a large language model (LLM)—think massive neural networks trained on vast amounts of text to understand and generate human-like responses.

The latest iterations, like Grok-3, pack advanced reasoning, real-time data access (via platforms like X), and multimodal capabilities (handling text, images, and more).

In this guide, we will go over how to deploy a Grok Eliza AI agent on Fleek.

Prerequisites#

  1. An XAI API key and credits in your account.
  2. A Fleek account if you don’t already have one.
  3. A Twitter account with existing authentication and login status

No prior knowledge of AI agents or Eliza is required to participate.
