SpaceXAI wants to put X, Grok, and Cursor under one subscription. According to Bloomberg, the AI arm of Elon Musk’s SpaceX is reviewing a complete overhaul of how it prices its products. The company plans to replace today’s confusing split checkout with a single unified bill.
The new plan reportedly includes four tiers named Plus, Premium, Super, and Ultra. The free tier gives users access to Grok with tighter usage limits. The Lite tier costs $8 per month and adds a verified checkmark on X along with fewer ads and expanded Grok access. At the top, the Ultra tier costs $100 per month and targets power users with the Grok Bot AI agent. A leaked screen recording on X also showed plans reaching up to $200 per month with Cursor bundled directly into the tiers.

The star of the Ultra tier is Grok Bot, which SpaceXAI launched in beta in August 2026. Unlike a regular chatbot, each Grok Bot gets its own dedicated cloud computer. These agents can work across apps, websites, and files even when the user’s own computer stays off. Users can also run multiple Bots at once that communicate with each other and share context on overlapping projects. SpaceXAI says internal versions already handle tasks like overnight sales research, pulling expense receipts from email, and fixing software bugs. Grok Bot currently runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, and iOS, with Android support coming later.
Right now, X charges $3 for Basic, $8 for Premium, and $40 for Premium+. Grok runs separately at $30 for SuperGrok, $100 for SuperGrok Plus, and $300 for SuperGrok Heavy. That gives users seven confusing options across just two products. Meanwhile, SpaceX agreed in June to acquire Anysphere, the maker of Cursor, in a $60 billion all-stock deal. The acquisition adds yet another subscription to untangle.
The financial pressure behind this move is real. Grok has reached roughly 117 million monthly active users, but only about 1.9 million actually pay for premium tiers. That represents just a 1.6% conversion rate. Additionally, xAI lost $1.46 billion in the quarter ending September 2025 alone, after a $1 billion loss the quarter before. Revenue nearly doubled to $107 million that quarter, but the gap remains enormous.
Competitors are also reshaping their pricing. OpenAI recently halved usage limits on its $200 ChatGPT Pro plan and launched a $500 tier. Meta rolled out Meta One subscriptions worldwide starting at $2.99. Meanwhile, the European Commission opened an investigation into X in January 2026 over risks tied to Grok, and EU AI Act transparency rules took effect in August. A ban on AI systems generating non-consensual explicit content takes effect in December 2026.
Security concerns also hang over the expansion. An earlier investigation found that Grok Build uploaded entire Git repositories and their commit histories to xAI’s cloud. This potentially exposed committed secrets and sensitive code. SpaceXAI now advises users to review approval and privacy settings before granting Grok Bot access to sensitive systems.
