SpaceXSI bundles X Premium, Grok, and Cursor into one subscription

AI enterprise TechCrunch
SpaceX Super Intelligence has consolidated its paid AI and social features into a tiered subscription bundle called 'The X Subscription.'
What: The new bundle combines X Premium, Grok, and the Cursor code editor into five pricing tiers ranging from free to $200 per month. The tiers scale access to AI models and agentic features, with the goal of competing more effectively against AI offerings from OpenAI and Anthropic.
Why it matters: Consolidating software and social identity into a single billing mechanism helps SpaceXSI capture more of a user's digital budget and increases reliance on their proprietary AI ecosystem.
Decoder
  • Grok: The generative AI model developed by Elon Musk's xAI, integrated directly into the X platform for chat and data analysis.
  • Cursor: An AI-powered code editor fork of VS Code designed to integrate LLMs into software development workflows.

SpaceXSI bundles X Premium, Grok, and Cursor into one subscription

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.
