Grok Bot plans explained: new subscriptions and legacy access

Understand which current plans include Grok Bot, how shared usage differs from older access, and what to check before subscribing.

Older setup posts can describe a different subscription arrangement from the one offered to a new account. This is an access explainer checked on October 31, 2026, not an announcement that every plan changed today.

What the current documentation says

The X Subscription includes Grok Bot on Premium, Super, and Ultra. Listed monthly prices are $30, $100, and $200 before applicable tax. Free and Plus do not include it. Under this subscription system, Bot usage shares a weekly pool with the covered Grok and Cursor usage.

Those are plan-level facts, not a promise about how many research reports or browser tasks a particular allowance will finish. Workloads differ.

Why legacy accounts need a separate check

The official access documentation also describes existing subscription routes. If you already subscribe, inspect the entitlement shown in your account before buying another plan. A tutorial written for an older account may still describe that account correctly while giving a new user the wrong expectation.

When comparing instructions, write down the account type, the plan name, and the date of the source. Do not treat a screenshot of an old billing page as current pricing for everyone.

Questions to answer before you subscribe

  • Does this exact account show Bot access?
  • Are you comparing monthly billing with monthly billing?
  • Is tax or a temporary promotion included in the displayed price?
  • Where will you check included usage and extra spending?
  • Are the tools needed for your first workflow supported by your own accounts?

Choose a small task to evaluate the product. A simple first result gives you a more useful basis for a spending decision than a large collection of impressive demos.

What to do next

Use the linked official pricing and access pages to confirm your account's current terms. If the app's entitlement differs from your subscription, record the account and plan details and use the official support path rather than purchasing repeatedly.

Once access is confirmed, follow our getting started guide and give one Bot a focused first task.
