Rebrand Fallout: X Rolls Grok, Cursor and Premium Into a Single Paid Tier

Now going by SpaceXSI after dropping the SpaceXAI name to echo "super intelligence" branding, the company unveiled X Subscription, a unified monthly plan folding in Grok, Grok Bot, Cursor and X Premium, with top pricing reaching $200.

Rebrand Fallout: X Rolls Grok, Cursor and Premium Into a Single Paid Tier

First the company changed its name, then it changed how you subscribe. The company formerly known as SpaceXAI officially rebranded as SpaceXSI after CEO Elon Musk announced he would follow U.S. President Donald Trump's push to replace the term "artificial intelligence" with "super intelligence." Right after that, the company announced via its official account @SpaceXSI on October 12 that subscription plans for Grok, Cursor, and X Premium would be unified under a single name: X Subscription.

This isn't just a rebranding move. Cursor, the coding startup the company acquired this past August, used to be billed separately. Now it's being folded into the same subscription card as the chatbot Grok and X's paid membership tier, Premium, with different feature combinations unlocked depending on the payment tier.

Four Price Points, Clear Feature Gaps

The $8/month Plus plan targets individual users, offering Grok Chat, Voice, Imagine, and Build, plus the Grok API and Cursor's coding features. The X Premium portion includes the verification checkmark, fewer timeline ads, creator tools, and advanced analytics.

The $30/month Premium plan builds on Plus by adding Grok Bot and the latest Grok model, AI-generated images and videos via Grok, and faster conversation response times. The Cursor portion is upgraded to include code hosting, cloud agents, and automated workflows, while the X portion adds ad-free browsing and the right to reserve a specific handle.

The $100/month Super plan rolls in everything from both Plus and Premium, plus priority access to Grok models during peak usage times. The top-tier $200 Ultra plan offers earliest access to all products and models, with usage limits 20 times higher than the Plus plan.

Team versions are also available for the Premium, Super, and Ultra plans, while enterprise customers can contact the company directly for custom plans. The materials did not specify exact launch dates or regional availability for each plan.
