What Is The X Subscription? The Grok, Cursor, and X Premium Bundle Explained: Every Tier, What You Lose When You Switch, Who Saves, Who Pays More, and Whether to Move

The confusion is earned. The announcement talks about savings, the pricing page talks about multipliers, Cursor's post talks about 'twice the coding usage,' and the thing most Cursor subscribers actually lose, the included allowance for Claude, GPT, and Gemini, is in a footnote. This guide reads all of it: SpaceXSI's announcement and pricing page, every page of the X Subscription docs, Cursor's new pricing docs and its legacy-plan mapping, and all 345 surviving posts in Cursor's forum thread, including 42 replies from Cursor staff. The diagrams are ours, drawn from those sources; where a number is a vendor claim or a user report, it says so.

Executive summary

• What it is: one subscription, managed at grok.com, covering Grok (Chat, Voice, Imagine, Build), Grok Bot, Cursor, and X Premium benefits. Launched October 12, 2026 by SpaceXSI. Sold by 'X Subscription Corp'; resellers are not authorized.
• The tiers: Free $0; Plus $8/mo ($80/yr); Premium $30/mo ($300/yr); Super $100/mo ($1,000/yr); Ultra $200/mo ($2,000/yr). Usage scales 1× / 4× / 15× / 50× against Plus. Teams buy Premium, Super, or Ultra seats at the same prices; Plus is not sold to teams.
• One weekly pool: every paid tier gets a single allowance of Grok-model usage (Grok 4.7, 4.6, 4.5, and Cursor's Composer 2.5) that resets every week and is shared by Cursor, the Grok apps, Grok on X, and Grok Bot. Nothing published says unused usage carries over, and users report it does not.
• Third-party models are never included. Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Muse in Cursor are available on Premium and above only, billed at API list price from the first token out of prepaid credit. Plus and Free cannot use them at all. This is the single biggest loss for Cursor subscribers.
• Grok Bot moves into the pool. It is included on Premium and up, and its usage now drains the same weekly pool as your coding and chat. On the old plans it had its own separate allowance.
• Who pays less: anyone on X Premium+ ($40 → $30), SuperGrok Heavy ($300 → $200), or two or more of the old products. SuperGrok ($30) and SuperGrok Plus ($100) map to the same price with Cursor and X added.
• Who pays more: Cursor Pro ($20 → $30) and Cursor Pro+ ($60 → $100, with staff saying Pro+ has 'no one-to-one replacement'). Both also lose their included third-party allowance, which Cursor's docs sized at $20 and $70 a month.
• Permanent, one way: the account merge cannot be reversed, legacy plans cannot be repurchased once they lapse, and cancelling The X Subscription does not restore anything. Old plans are cancelled at checkout with a prorated refund sent separately; the new plan is charged at full price.
• If you do nothing: your plan continues. Cursor staff say there is 'no timeline' for migrating anyone and promise 'advance notice' before anything changes. There is no commitment that legacy plans renew indefinitely.
• Watch-outs: Cursor bought through the Apple App Store is not cancelled for you and Apple keeps billing; gifted X Premium and Apple Family Sharing are not refunded; a $0 monthly additional-usage limit is the only hard off switch for surprise charges.

What The X Subscription is, and who is selling it

Three products, three companies' worth of history, one checkout. xAI became part of SpaceX in February 2026, bought Cursor's maker Anysphere in a $60 billion all-stock deal that closed in August, and renamed itself SpaceX Super Intelligence in early October, after a federal executive order adopted the term 'super intelligence.' The pricing page footer reads 'SpaceX Super Intelligence LLC' and Cursor's footer still reads 'Anysphere, Inc.' The two now share a login system, one dashboard at grok.com, and one usage meter. Grok Bot, the always-on agent SpaceXSI launched in August, runs on Cursor's cloud infrastructure, which is why the August expansion of Grok Bot bundled it into Cursor and SuperGrok plans rather than selling it alone. The X Subscription is the final step of that merger: a single plan where the bundle is the product.

The official framing, from SpaceXSI's announcement: 'Premium includes the benefits of SuperGrok, Cursor Pro, and X Premium+, previously $90/month combined,' and 'each new tier gives more usage per dollar than the plan it replaces.' Cursor's version, posted on X the same night, adds the line that explains most of the anger that followed: 'To make room for more Grok usage, third-party models in Cursor move to API pricing on the new plans.'

SpaceXSI's own announcement post had 17.8 million views and 1,566 replies when we checked on November 2; Cursor's had 785,874 views and 605 replies. The Cursor forum thread announcing the change had 18,863 views, 345 surviving posts, and 779 likes, with the most-liked post (70 likes) coming from a long-time Ultra subscriber asking Cursor to 'commit that legacy Ultra can be renewed indefinitely, instead of just saying it continues for now.' Cursor has not made that commitment.

The five tiers, side by side

Three things the table cannot show. First, grok.com/plans was running a 50% off for one month offer when we checked: Premium at $15, Super at $50, Ultra at $100 for the first month, then full price. Whether it applies to accounts that switch is not stated, and it is the kind of promotion that comes and goes. Second, Plus is a leash, not a smaller Premium. Cursor's docs say Plus runs Grok models 'at fixed settings: Fast is off, effort is medium, and Grok 4.7 uses the 256k context window,' with no Auto mode, no Cloud Agents, no Bugbot, no third-party models, and no bring-your-own-key. Cursor staff confirmed BYOK 'is not available for the $8 plan.' Third, paid Cursor accounts cannot pick Plus when they switch: the unify flow offers Premium and above, and Pro, Pro+, Teams Standard, and Teams Premium default to Premium, Super, Premium seat, and Super seat respectively.

The X side, feature by feature

Read that table against what X sold before October 12 and the X story is the simplest of the three. Premium at $30 is what X Premium+ was at $40, with SuperGrok and Cursor thrown in. Plus at $8 is X Premium at $8 with Grok Chat, Imagine, Voice, Build, and a limited Cursor allowance added. The casualty is X Premium Basic at $3, which has no equivalent; the new floor for any paid X benefit is $8. The X Premium page in the docs is explicit about who should pick what: 'If you have X Premium+ today, choose Premium or higher to keep your X Premium+ benefits.' Only personal X accounts can be connected; organization-managed and affiliate accounts cannot, and connecting X is optional, so a Cursor user who never wants to touch X can switch without linking one.

The Cursor side, feature by feature

The '$90 becomes $30' claim, checked

The $90 figure is accurate as a sum: SuperGrok was $30, Cursor Pro was $20, X Premium+ was $40. It is also double-counted for the people most likely to have paid it: X's own help page, as archived on October 2, listed 'SuperGrok access, Grok Bot, no ads anywhere on X' among the Premium+ benefits, so a Premium+ subscriber already had SuperGrok and the real combined price was $60. Annual billing tells the same story from another angle: Premium+ was $395 a year, new Premium is $300. The claim is only a saving if you paid all three separately. Pay for one, and the comparison inverts for Cursor users: Pro was $20 and Premium is $30, so a developer who never opens Grok or X pays $10 more and loses the included third-party allowance in exchange for roughly twice the Grok-model coding usage, a checkmark, and Grok Bot. For a SuperGrok subscriber it is a wash on price and a gain in features. For an X Premium+ subscriber it is $10 cheaper. The honest sentence is the one Cursor staff wrote on the forum on October 20: 'If third-party models or a monthly usage pool matter most to you, staying on your current plan is a perfectly good choice.'

How the usage pool works now

• One pool, weekly reset. Cursor's docs: 'Each paid plan includes one pool of usage for Cursor models. The pool is shared across everything on your subscription: Agent in the editor, CLI, Cloud Agents, Grok Bot, and the Grok apps. It refreshes weekly, so one heavy day doesn't use up your month.' Cursor staff on the forum: 'It refreshes every week instead of every month.'
• What is in it: Grok 4.7, Grok 4.6, Grok 4.5, and Composer 2.5, in Cursor; Grok Chat, Imagine, Voice, Build, and Grok Bot on the Grok side. Composer still costs usage: staff said it 'uses your plan's included weekly usage like the Grok models do.' Fast mode drains the pool 'about twice as fast.' Auto-Review's safety check is free and does not touch the pool.
• What is not in it: every third-party model, which is billed from prepaid credit from the first request; and the Grok API, which paid plans include access to but which 'is billed separately at standard model rates and doesn't draw from your plan's usage pool.'
• Different products drain it at different rates. The docs say 'usage costs vary by product' without publishing rates per product. On the forum, one user reported a single Grok Bot conversation consumed 7% of a weekly allowance; another reported 294 million tokens brought them to 99% of a week on Ultra. Both are user reports, not vendor data.
• No carry-over. No official page says unused weekly usage rolls forward, and three separate forum users describe it as lost at the reset. Cursor staff did not contradict them. The weekly pool is the one place where the vendor's framing ('one heavy day doesn't use up your month') and the heavy user's experience ('I can't borrow unused capacity from the following week') describe the same mechanism from opposite sides.
• Pool sizes are unpublished. Multipliers are published (4×, 15×, 50× of Plus); the size of Plus is not, in tokens or dollars. Two forum users asked for the number directly and received no answer.

The 'at least twice as much coding usage with Grok models as the comparable Cursor plan' claim is real and narrow. Staff were precise about the scope when asked: it compares 'coding with Grok models, compared with the matching Cursor plan (Cursor Pro for Premium),' it is 'about coding usage with Grok models over a comparable period, and the allowance is spread across the weeks.' So a Cursor Pro user who switches gets about twice the Grok-model budget per month, delivered as four weekly slices, with Grok Bot, Grok Imagine, and Grok Chat now drinking from the same slices. Cursor's own October 20 note acknowledges the result some people see: 'we're looking into reports of usage limits running out faster than expected. Some of this appears to come from people trying newer features included in their plan (like Grok Imagine), and some we're still digging into.'

What you lose when you switch

This is the section SpaceXSI's announcement does not have. Everything below is drawn from the official docs, Cursor's legacy-plan page, and on-the-record staff replies; user reports are labeled.

If you come from Cursor (Pro, Pro+, Ultra, Teams)

• The Other Models pool. Legacy Pro, Pro+, Ultra, and Teams include a monthly allowance for third-party models, 'drawn down at each model's API price.' Cursor's own docs, as archived on August 17, sized it: $20 of third-party usage a month on Pro, $70 on Pro+, $400 on Ultra. The X Subscription has no such allowance on any tier. Cursor staff: 'There's no included allowance for third-party models on Premium, Super, or Ultra (individual or Teams). The included pool covers Grok models.' If you use Claude Opus or Sonnet as your daily model, your monthly bill becomes $30 plus whatever Anthropic's list price says.
• Monthly becomes weekly. Two monthly pools become one weekly pool with no stated carry-over. A month's worth of work compressed into one week hits the wall at roughly half the old monthly allowance (see the diagram above).
• On-demand usage becomes prepaid credit. Legacy plans bill overage 'in arrears each month' with a spend limit. The new plans refuse the request until you buy credit: 'If you don't add credits, a third-party model won't run and you'll see a prompt to buy credits instead.' That is arguably safer; it is also a change in how you pay.
• Pro at $20 is gone for good. Premium is $30. Staff: 'the old $20 Pro plan isn't available to buy again.' A Pro plan that has already lapsed cannot be revived.
• Pro+ has no equivalent. Staff on October 13: 'There isn't a one-to-one replacement for Pro+.' The mapping doc sends Pro+ ($60) to Super ($100), a $40 increase. One annual Pro+ subscriber calculated a 73.6% price increase at renewal if forced to Super Annual.
• New Ultra is not old Ultra. Same $200. Staff: 'It isn't the same as the previous Cursor Ultra plan, though, and that plan is no longer available for new signups.' Old Ultra included third-party usage; new Ultra includes 50× Plus of Grok-model usage and nothing for third-party models. Legacy Ultra annual was $1,920 a year; new Ultra annual is $2,000.
• Teams get cheaper per seat and pay a new fee. Teams Standard ($40) maps to a Premium seat ($30); Teams Premium ($120) to a Super seat ($100). But on Teams and Enterprise, third-party requests carry a Cursor Token Rate of $0.25 per million tokens on top of list price, on input, output, and cached tokens, including BYOK. Individual plans do not pay it. Cursor models, Cost-mode Auto, and a list of small models (Haiku 5.5, GPT-5.6 Luna, the Gemini Flash family, GLM 5.3 Flash) are exempt.
• Max Mode exists only on the older request-based plans and does not come along.
• Plus is not offered to anyone switching from a paid Cursor plan.
• Billing moves from cursor.com to grok.com/dashboard/billing, and your Grok sign-in 'becomes the primary sign-in for the combined account.' Sign-in domains change; enterprises are told to update firewall allowlists for accounts.x.ai, x.ai, and grok.com.
• Apple App Store Cursor subscriptions are not cancelled by the switch. The docs are blunt: 'Apple keeps billing you' until you cancel it yourself in iPhone or iPad Settings, and refunds are Apple's call.
• Alipay is not accepted on The X Subscription. Staff told Alipay users to stay on their current plan.

If you come from SuperGrok (Lite, SuperGrok, Plus, Heavy)

• Grok Bot's separate allowance disappears. SpaceXSI's August post said Grok Bot 'comes with its own usage, separate from your Grok and Cursor plans.' The new docs say the opposite for the new plans: 'Bot usage draws from that seat's shared weekly usage pool, not a separate additive pool.' Heavy Bot users on the forum describe this as the real cut: one calculated the new Ultra pool at roughly the old Heavy 'Build' limit alone, about half of Heavy's Build plus Bots total. That is a user's calculation, not a published figure.
• SuperGrok Heavy ($300) becomes Ultra ($200). Cheaper by $100, and staff confirmed 'your Heavy plan becomes Ultra on The X Subscription.' Whether Ultra's 'most powerful Chat models' matches Heavy's model access is not stated anywhere we could find. If a Cursor Ultra was linked to your Heavy plan, that linked Cursor usage ends and 'your Cursor usage then comes from that plan's shared weekly pool,' with third-party models billed separately.
• SuperGrok ($30) and SuperGrok Plus ($100) map to Premium and Super at the same prices, adding Cursor and X Premium+ benefits. The costs are the shared pool and the permanence.
• SuperGrok Lite ($10) has no named successor; Plus at $8 is the nearest and it does not include Grok Bot either. Lite never did.
• Grok Business seats are cancelled when a team unifies, with unused days refunded.

If you come from X Premium (Basic, Premium, Premium+)

• Basic ($3, $32 a year) is gone. The cheapest paid tier is now Plus at $8. For scale, SpaceX's June IPO prospectus counted about 4.4 million X Premium subscribers across the three tiers and about 1.9 million SuperGrok subscribers as of March 31, 2026.
• Premium ($8, $84 a year) becomes Plus ($8, $80 a year) with Grok and a Cursor allowance added. Old Premium promised 'approximately 50% fewer ads'; Plus says 'fewer timeline ads' and ad-free on 'some surfaces.' If you only wanted a checkmark and fewer ads, nothing is lost and some AI is gained, but note the Grok tab on X now meters against the same weekly pool as everything else.
• Premium+ ($40) becomes Premium ($30). Cheaper, and the compare grid shows the Premium+ features carried over: preferred @handle, higher reply boost, Radar. One wording change to watch: X sold Premium+ as 'no ads anywhere on X,' and the new grid says 'ad-free scrolling on most surfaces.' Also note Premium+ already included SuperGrok access, so the Grok side is not new to you; Cursor is.
• Gifted X Premium and Apple Family Sharing subscriptions 'are not cancelled or refunded.' X Premium bought through the Apple App Store is cancelled and Apple decides the refund; through Google Play, you must check that it stopped renewing.
• Organization-managed and affiliate X accounts cannot be connected at all.

Everyone

• It is permanent. From the docs: 'The switch is permanent. It can't be undone, and Support can't undo it for you.' From the cancel page: 'Canceling The X Subscription does not separate those accounts or restore your previous Cursor, SuperGrok, or X Premium subscriptions.' From staff: 'legacy plans can't be repurchased once they end.' One forum user, 12 likes: 'is there any way to switch back? I feel like I got scammed.' The answer was no.
• Refunds are separate; the new charge is full. Old plans are cancelled at checkout 'with a prorated refund for unused time,' sent 'back to your original payment method separately from your checkout total, so your new plan is charged at full price.' Any un-invoiced on-demand usage is billed in one final invoice first, and the switch waits until it is paid.
• Privacy settings merge to the stricter one. Staff: 'Training is one setting shared across Cursor and Grok. When you combine accounts, the stricter of your two settings is applied to both.' Grok Bot follows your Cursor Privacy Mode.
• Grok Bot data mostly moves, not entirely. When multiple Cursor accounts are combined, bots, chats, tasks, memory, routines, rooms, and transcripts move to the primary account; bot settings, the bot's email inbox, MCP setup, form vault, and templates stay behind. 'Nothing is deleted,' but some of it stays on the other account.
• The referral program is new-plan only. Premium, Super, and Ultra subscribers in the US can refer friends for a two-week Premium trial and earn a usage reset. 'Cursor and SuperGrok are legacy plans and can't refer friends.'

The four money controls, and the one that actually stops charges

• Weekly pool: included Grok and Composer usage. When it is gone, Cursor offers three options: wait for the reset, use prepaid credit, or upgrade. 'Requests are never downgraded in quality or speed.'
• Prepaid balance: credit you buy in top-ups. It pays for third-party models from the first token and for Grok-model usage past the pool, at the per-model rates below. Promotional credit grants are tracked separately and expire.
• Monthly additional usage limit: the spending cap. Staff on October 21: 'a monthly limit of $0 is the off switch: with a $0 limit, anything that would use credits (third-party models, or usage past your weekly included allowance) is refused instead of charged.' The field shows a grey placeholder 0 that means no limit; you must type 0 and save. The docs add that a team 'can therefore have money left in its balance and still be blocked.'
• Auto Top-up: off until you turn it on. Switching does not enable it. When on, it charges your card whenever the balance drops below a threshold you set. Spend alerts, where available, warn but 'do not stop usage.'
• Teams: seats keep their own weekly pools and do not share them; the team shares one prepaid balance and one cap, set by admins as a fixed amount or per seat. Enterprise gets pooled usage.

What Claude, GPT, and Gemini cost in Cursor now

On Premium and above, third-party models bill at the provider's API list price per million tokens, from the first request, out of prepaid credit. These are the rates on Cursor's pricing doc on November 2. Teams and Enterprise add the $0.25 per million Cursor Token Rate to every non-exempt third-party request.

Worked arithmetic, ours, to size it: a developer who runs Claude Sonnet 5.5 as the daily model through 10 million input tokens and 1 million output tokens in a month pays $20 + $10 = $30 in credit on top of the $30 plan, before cache savings. Move that same month to Opus 5.5 and it is $40 + $20 = $60 on top. On legacy Pro the first portion of that came out of the included Other Models pool. Whether the switch costs you money therefore depends almost entirely on how much of your Cursor work is on non-Grok models. If the answer is 'most of it,' stay. If you already do most of your work on Composer and Grok, the new pool is larger and the arithmetic favors switching.

What Cursor staff have said on the record

All of the following are verbatim from Cursor's Community Support Engineer, Colin, in the announcement thread, dated in UTC. They are the closest thing to official answers that exists beyond the docs.

• On permanence, October 14: 'Switching to The X Subscription is permanent. Once your accounts are combined you can't move back to your current Cursor plan, and the older plans aren't available to buy again, so there isn't a way to switch temporarily.' (post 189)
• On doing nothing, October 13: 'Nothing happens to your Pro plan automatically. You can keep it at the same price with the same features for now. Users who don't choose to migrate will, sometime in the future, be migrated with advance notice.' (post 45)
• On the timeline, October 20: 'There's no timeline for migrating existing plans, and we'll give advance notice before anything changes.' (post 408)
• On annual plans, October 14: 'If you're on an annual Cursor plan today, you can keep it through the end of your term. If you switch, your annual plan ends and you get a prorated refund for the unused time.' (post 188)
• On Ultra, October 12: 'Ultra on The X Subscription is a new plan ... It isn't the same as the previous Cursor Ultra plan, though, and that plan is no longer available for new signups.' (post 11)
• On third-party models, October 13: 'There's no included allowance for third-party models on Premium, Super, or Ultra (individual or Teams).' (post 47) and 'If you don't add credits, a third-party model won't run and you'll see a prompt to buy credits instead, so you won't be charged by surprise.' (post 98)
• On Grok Bot, October 13: 'On The X Subscription, Grok Bot draws from the same weekly pool as Cursor and the Grok apps, and usage costs vary by product.' (post 49)
• On the $0 switch, October 21: 'You can turn credit usage off completely. On the new plans, a monthly limit of $0 is the off switch.' (post 441)
• On taxes, October 13: 'The prices on the pricing page are before taxes. The switch page prices the plan for your billing country and can include local taxes, which is likely why Super showed as $120 for you instead of $100.' (post 103)
• On whether to switch at all, October 20: 'If third-party models or a monthly usage pool matter most to you, staying on your current plan is a perfectly good choice.' (post 408)

What staff have not said: any token or dollar size for the pool, any commitment that legacy plans renew indefinitely, anything about Apple App Store Cursor subscriptions (the docs cover that), or when 'sometime in the future' is.

What people are actually complaining about

A forum user tallied the first four days of the thread on October 16 and the shape has held since: about fifteen users on the lost third-party allowance, fourteen on the weekly pool and doubts about the '2×' claim, ten who do not want X or Grok at all, nine on $20 becoming $30 with no Pro+ replacement, eight on receiving no email notice, seven on switching bugs, and five on Alipay. The most-liked posts, in order:

• 70 likes, a legacy Ultra subscriber: 'Claude and GPT are billed at API list price from the very first request, completely outside the plan. Ultra at $200 gets you 50x Grok usage, plus an X checkmark and Grok Bot.' Asked Cursor to 'commit that legacy Ultra can be renewed indefinitely, instead of just saying it continues for now.' (post 27)
• 19 likes, a two-year daily user: 'This is the worst change I have seen you guys make.' (post 67)
• 13 likes: 'Nobody running agents at 1am asked for social media perks, checkmarks, or fewer ads, because we paid for a coding tool and expected improvements to that coding tool, not a subscription that increasingly looks like a distribution channel for the broader xAI and X ecosystem.' (post 483)
• 12 likes, someone who switched: 'For those, who haven't switched to the X subscription, please DON'T!' followed by 'is there any way to switch back? I feel like I got scammed.' (post 449)
• 11 likes, a former SuperGrok Heavy user: the new Ultra pool is roughly what Heavy's Build limit was on its own, about half of Heavy's Build plus Bots total, with 'no way back.' (post 299)

The volume is real but the sample is the sample: the thread is where unhappy people go. About 320 post numbers are missing from the thread (deleted, split, or hidden), so the surviving 345 are also curated. What is not in dispute is that the two mechanisms people object to, the dropped third-party allowance and the weekly shared pool, are exactly as the docs describe them.

Should you switch?

• Pay for two or three of SuperGrok, Cursor, and X Premium: switch. Premium at $30 is cheaper than any two of them, and the only way you lose is if your Cursor work runs mostly on Claude or GPT.
• X Premium+ only: switch. Same features, $10 less, and you gain SuperGrok and Cursor you can ignore.
• SuperGrok Heavy: probably switch to Ultra and save $100, unless Grok Bot is your main workload, in which case read the forum reports on pool size first and keep Heavy until there is a published number.
• Cursor Pro on Composer and Grok: reasonable. You pay $10 more for roughly double the Grok-model usage, Grok Bot, and the X perks, and you lose an allowance you were not using.
• Cursor Pro, Pro+, or Ultra on Claude, GPT, or Gemini: stay. Your included third-party allowance is the thing being removed, and staff themselves call staying 'a perfectly good choice.' Watch for the 'advance notice' of a forced migration; none has been given.
• Cursor Pro+ specifically: stay unless you need Grok Bot. The default landing is Super at $100, a 67% increase, for a plan staff admit has no equivalent.
• Cursor Teams: compare carefully. Seats get cheaper, third-party gets a $0.25 per million surcharge, and the move is permanent for the whole workspace.
• Cursor billed through Apple: do not switch until you have cancelled the Apple subscription, or you will pay twice.
• New to all three: you have no choice; new customers start on The X Subscription. Start on Premium if you want Cursor's cloud agents or Grok Bot, Plus if you want the checkmark and light Grok use, and check whether the 50%-off first month is still running at grok.com/plans.

How to switch, if you decide to

• Start from the right product. Paid Cursor users start at cursor.com/unify (teams at cursor.com/unify/team). Grok and X-only users start at accounts.x.ai/unify or grok.com Settings → Billing. Starting from X does not bring Cursor along. Mobile apps send you to the web.
• Pick the accounts. You choose which Grok, X, and Cursor accounts to combine; with multiple Cursor accounts you pick a primary. The docs warn: 'Email addresses don't need to match. The system connects the X account you sign in to. Check each account before you confirm.' A wrong account cannot be unmerged.
• Pay any outstanding invoice first. Un-invoiced on-demand usage is billed in a final invoice and the switch waits for it.
• Choose a tier. Paid Cursor accounts see Premium and above. Annual billing is available in the plan picker; the pricing page shows monthly prices.
• Check out. Old subscriptions are cancelled, refunds for unused time go back to the original payment method separately, and the new plan starts immediately at full price.
• Then, immediately: cancel any Apple-billed Cursor subscription in iPhone Settings; check Google Play if you bought Grok, Grok Bot, or X Premium there; set a monthly additional usage limit (type 0 and save if you want nothing charged beyond the plan); decide whether to turn on Auto Top-up; turn off third-party models you do not want in Cursor Settings → Models so they cannot be picked by accident.

What we could not verify

• The size of the pool in tokens, requests, or dollars, at any tier. SpaceXSI publishes multipliers only. Forum requests for the number went unanswered.
• Whether 'latest Grok models' on Premium means anything Plus lacks in Cursor. Cursor's docs list the same four models on Plus; the 'latest models' line appears to describe the Grok app.
• Whether Ultra's 'most powerful Chat models' equals SuperGrok Heavy's model access. Neither the pricing page nor the docs say.
• Carry-over of unused weekly usage. No official statement either way; user reports say none.
• Grok Bot in Tesla vehicles under the new plans; SpaceXSI has not said, per Teslarati.
• The premise of the question. Levi's phrase 'Grok Bot mega subscription' is close: Grok Bot is a headline feature of Premium and above, but the bundle's official name is The X Subscription and Grok Bot is one of four products inside it.

What this changes on Top5Apps

Cursor's review now describes The X Subscription tiers, notes that the $20 Pro plan is closed to new buyers, and carries the third-party pricing change as a con; it holds #1 at 4.8 because the product has not changed for existing subscribers and the new Premium tier is a reasonable buy for Grok-and-Composer users, but we have moved price transparency down a notch in our notes and will re-score if a forced migration is announced. Grok Bot's review now gives the new route to it, Premium at $30, and drops the 'usage separate from your plans' pro, which is no longer true on the new plans. Grok's entry in the chatbots ranking now names SpaceXSI. The changelog records all of it.

Is The X Subscription the same as SuperGrok?

No. SuperGrok was Grok's standalone plan ($30, with Plus at $100 and Heavy at $300). The X Subscription replaces it for new customers with Premium, Super, and Ultra at $30, $100, and $200, each of which also includes Cursor and X Premium benefits. Existing SuperGrok plans continue until you switch or cancel.

Do I have to use X to use Cursor on The X Subscription?

No. Connecting a personal X account is optional and only matters for the X benefits. Cursor staff confirmed Premium 'includes Cursor usage, and you don't need to use X or Grok to use it.'

Can I switch back if I don't like it?

No. The merge is permanent, Support cannot reverse it, legacy plans cannot be repurchased, and cancelling The X Subscription does not restore the old ones. You can move between the new tiers; downgrades take effect at the end of the billing period.

Does my Cursor plan stop working if I ignore this?

No. Your plan, price, and features continue. Cursor says there is no timeline for migrating existing plans and that it will give advance notice. It has not promised that legacy plans renew forever.
