Grok Bot Launches Early Beta for Ultra, Heavy, and Teams

On August 11, 2026, Cursor and SpaceXAI opened Grok Bot in early beta. Cursor’s Kevin Neilson posted the forum announcement at 7:34pm. Bots sign into tools the subscriber already uses on a persistent cloud computer with a browser, filesystem, and terminal. They finish jobs end to end and only come back when something needs approval.

What Grok Bot is

The official SpaceXAI launch post and Cursor forum note describe the same product: AI teammates that work inside existing apps, not a draft you have to move. Work can continue after the laptop shuts. The same thread can be picked up on desktop or iOS.

Cursor’s getting-started docs add the operating model. Agents use connected plugins where they exist, and the cloud computer’s browser where they do not. The subscriber signs into sites on that computer; the agent does not see the password. Cursor tells users not to paste API keys or other credentials into chat or ordinary files.

SpaceXAI says it built Grok Bot as an internal prototype first. The company lists sales outbound, marketing campaigns, office operations, and bug fixes as early internal jobs. Those are SpaceXAI’s own examples, not third-party measurements.

“There is a huge difference between 90% done and 100% done. Most AI gets you almost there. Grok Bot can finish the swing, because the work lands where a human would put it, in the actual tool.”

The numbers

• Launch: August 11, 2026. Cursor forum post timestamped 7:34pm.
• Status: Early beta. Cursor’s docs say some launch materials use “beta” to set expectations; Grok Bot is not under Cursor’s Beta Services terms.
• Surfaces: Desktop and iOS, per both official launch notes.
• Access: SuperGrok Heavy, Cursor Ultra, and Cursor Teams Premium. Enterprise is a waitlist.
• List prices on x.ai/bot: Cursor Ultra $200 per month. SuperGrok Heavy $300 per month. Cursor Premium Teams $120 per seat per month. Grok Bot is included on Ultra and Heavy.
• Heavy path: An active SuperGrok Heavy plan can unlock Cursor Ultra at $0 for as long as Heavy stays active. Cursor docs say claiming that offer cancels a Stripe-billed Pro or Pro+ plan.
• Support: hi@cursor.com, or Cursor Bug Reports.

Cursor’s plans page does not publish those dollar figures. The $200 / $120 / $300 list prices above are taken from x.ai/bot, fetched August 21, 2026. Cursor help does say SuperGrok Heavy holders should not be charged $200 for Ultra while Heavy remains active.

One computer, several screens

Bots share one cloud computer. Each Bot gets its own screen, so several can run in parallel. They can message each other, share context in threads and group chats, and pass ownership. A subscriber can show a Bot a multi-step path once; it saves that path as a routine and re-runs it on demand or on a schedule.

The isolation boundary is the account, not the Bot. Neilson’s forum post is explicit: treat a login or file placed on the computer as available to all of that user’s Bots. That is the product as shipped. Separate Bot screens are not a claim of separate credentials.

Cursor help also says macOS and iOS share one usage bucket on the same signed-in account. The free trial is a usage credit with a 7-day window, drawn down by agent steps and tokens, not by message count. A single long run can exhaust it. Used trial credit is not restored.

Who this is for, and who is waiting

Paid access is included with Cursor Ultra or an eligible Teams Premium seat. Cursor Pro and Pro+ do not include Grok Bot. On a team, a Standard seat is not enough; an admin has to assign Premium. SuperGrok Heavy holders use the dedicated Heavy link flow. The individual Heavy promotion is not eligible on team accounts.

Enterprise buyers are on a waitlist. SpaceXAI’s launch page points them to sales rather than self-serve.

This sits next to the earlier SpaceX–Cursor combination: the same stack now selling a persistent computer, not just an IDE. The receipt to watch is not the launch copy. It is whether jobs actually land in the subscriber’s CRM, inbox, and tracker without a human finishing the last 10%.
