New subscription tiers integrate X Premium, Grok, and Cursor services into a single offering.
AI-generated summary
The company is competing in the paid AI subscription market against rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic.
In a bid to attract more subscribers, the company now known as SpaceX Super Intelligence is bundling all its subscriptions, including X Premium, Grok, and Cursor, into one plan called simply “The X Subscription.”
The idea is that the combined offering could potentially attract more subscribers than any single subscription, given the competitive paid AI subscription market, where SpaceXSI faces rivals like OpenAI, Anthropic, and others.
With the X Subscription, users can gain access to Grok for AI-powered chat, with support for voice, images, video and the API. Grok’s agentic AI Bot is also available, as is Cursor for AI coding and the paid features that come with an X Premium subscription, like the blue verified checkmark, creator tools, and fewer ads.
There are five plans available on the new subscription: free, Plus ($8/month), Premium ($30/month), Super ($100/month) and Ultra ($200/month), with AI usage caps increasing as you move up through the tiers. The free plan will only offer limited chat and agent usage, and Premium or higher is required to access the latest Grok models.
There’s another draw for existing X Premium+ subscribers: the comparable plan on the new X subscription costs the same or less, the company noted.
Existing users can either switch from their subscription settings on X to upgrade to the new bundle, or maintain their current plan. The option to upgrade will roll out gradually, so interested customers will need to keep an eye on their billing settings for the offer to upgrade.
