The dash

Sample readings. Not live data.

Grottle™ Skin2 dual dash showing sample readings for Sand (Grok™ Bot) and SuperGrok™
Skin2 dual dash, made from neutral sample readings (Sand 40% used, ≈7h42m left; SuperGrok™ 30% used, ≈9h20m left). Your dash shows your own numbers from your Usage page.

What the gauges show

Week Left the big arc

How much time is left before the weekly reset, shown as both % used and approximate time left.

Look-Ahead the bar under it

How much you can use per day and still last until the reset.

  • Green: on pace.
  • Yellow: using faster than an even share.
  • Red: far behind; slow down to make it to the reset.

Today the round dial

Today’s daily budget and how much of it you’ve burned so far.

Real-world example: a mid-week reset

On Oct 2, 2026, xAI reset Grok™ Bot usage limits mid-week. Grottle™ showed the difference:

Before52% used≈6h10m left
After2% used≈12h35m left

That’s about 6h25m of the week handed back. The weekly reset day and time stayed the same, and SuperGrok™ didn’t change.

    Ship an early version that works, lock a reference look and test every change against it, test as a brand-new user, and keep the numbers honest.
