SpaceXSI launches The X Subscription: Grok, Cursor and X Premium in five tiers from $8, with Grok Bot from the $30 Premium tier

Core Background & Industry Pain Points

Using SpaceXSI's products together used to mean separate SuperGrok, Cursor, and X Premium subscriptions, with three bills, three allowances, and a shifting Grok Bot entry path. On 2026-10-12 SpaceXSI introduced The X Subscription, and @grok confirmed Grok, Cursor, and X Premium now come in one plan from $8/month across five tiers (official pricing).

Architecture Highlights & Internals

Individual tiers (pre-tax): Free $0; Plus $8 with Grok Chat, Voice, Imagine, Build, the Grok API, Cursor, and the X checkmark; Premium $30 with 4× Plus usage, adding Grok Bot, the latest Grok models, Cursor cloud agents and automations, Origin code hosting, and Bugbot reviews; Super $100 at 15× with peak-time priority; Ultra $200 at 50× with earliest access. Teams start at $30/seat with 4–50× pooled usage; Enterprise is custom. Key mechanics: one shared AI usage pool across products, refreshed weekly, with top-ups. Third-party models (Claude, GPT in Cursor) are not included and bill at API list price. Existing subscribers can keep their plans or switch and link accounts; per the terms, merged accounts move to the new terms.

Authoritative Benchmarks & Measured Scores

A pricing change, so there are no benchmarks. SpaceXSI says each tier gives more usage-per-dollar of its own models than the plan it replaces, without a multiplier (vendor claim). Absolute weekly allowances are not published, only multiples of Plus.

Developer Hands-on Guide

1. Mostly Grok models: Plus or Premium gain the most value. 2. Heavy Claude/GPT use: third-party models cost extra, so compare against the third-party allowance in your current Cursor plan before switching. 3. For Grok Bot, the new minimum is Premium ($30). 4. Rollout is gradual, so check billing settings for availability and offers, and buy only direct, since resellers are not authorized.
