- Review permissions carefully before connecting it to work files.

## Summary

SpaceXAI has released a free Google Workspace add-on that brings its Grok chatbot into Docs, Sheets and Slides. It opens in a side panel and can draft documents, create slide decks, analyse spreadsheet data and make edits, giving Workspace users an alternative to Google’s built-in Gemini.

The add-on is installed through the Google Workspace Marketplace or an editor’s Extensions menu, and administrators can deploy it across an organisation. Its permissions are broad: it requests the ability to see, edit, create and delete Docs and Slides files, and sends content it reads to SpaceXAI; access to Sheets and other Drive files is more limited. The article’s reviewer found Grok’s document draft poor, while noting it can show revisions, cite spreadsheet cells, add formulas and charts, and build themed presentations.
