Grok Bot Comes to iPad and Android, Price Drops From $300 to $20 a Month

SpaceXAI, the company formed from the merger of xAI, SpaceX, and the previously acquired Cursor, has released the Grok Bot app for iPadOS and Android. It's the next step in the expansion of a tool that organizes autonomous AI agents in a team-chat-style interface, while sharply lowering the barrier to entry - from an original $300 a month down to $20 as part of the Cursor Pro plan.

A team of bots instead of a chat

Grok Bot isn't another chatbot for asking questions. Users create separate bots, give them names and roles, and each one runs its own conversation thread, much like a team member in Slack or iMessage. One bot might handle email, another sales, another recruiting, or tracking bugs in code.

The bots work in parallel, hand off tasks to each other, and communicate in shared threads, escalating to a human only when a decision or approval is needed. Unlike traditional AI assistants, Grok Bot operates directly within the user's tools - it has access to the browser, terminal, file system, and connected services.

Working without supervision

The agents can log into corporate CRM systems, email accounts, or other platforms to carry out an assigned task, with the operations continuing in the cloud even after the app is closed or the computer is turned off. The platform retains conversation history, files, preferences, and login sessions, so the bots gradually adapt to a given user's way of working instead of starting each session from scratch.

One of the more unusual features is process recording - an agent watches the user perform a sequence of actions and saves that procedure as a ready-made routine that can later be run manually or on a schedule. The company cites examples like weekly reports, checking project status, CRM updates, or pulling data from several systems at once.

One machine, no isolation

Architecturally, all of a given user's bots share the same persistent virtual machine in the cloud. They have separate workspaces and run in parallel, but there's no security separation between them - they share files, browser sessions, app login credentials, and terminal authentication. SpaceXAI explicitly advises against storing sensitive data or passwords in the system that shouldn't be accessible to all bots at once.

The math for businesses

The jump from $300 to $20 a month is this week's most tangible change. At launch, access to Grok Bot required an expensive SuperGrok Heavy package combined with Cursor Ultra or Cursor Teams Premium, putting the tool in a bracket meant for large development teams. Folding it into the standard Cursor Pro plan means AI agents now reach a much broader group of individual users and small businesses.

The move fits into SpaceXAI's broader strategy following the Cursor acquisition - more aggressive pricing and wider platform reach are meant to help close the gap with competing agentic systems from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic, which have also been aggressively expanding their tools for developers and business teams in recent months.

For Polish companies and freelancers, this amounts to a real cost alternative - a tool previously available in practice only to corporations with budget for AI experiments is now part of a standard subscription, alongside Cursor Pro, whose price remains in line with other popular AI services.

The expansion to iPad has a practical rationale - the larger screen makes it easier to work with multiple bots at once and track several threads simultaneously, without constantly switching between windows on a phone. The Android version rounds out coverage of the most popular mobile platforms, though desktop Linux remains outside the app's reach.

The lack of security isolation between bots is, however, a potential problem for broader rollout within companies, especially where different teams want to use separate agents without risking mutual access to confidential data. It's a topic likely to resurface as Grok Bot reaches more organizations using it under the new, cheaper plan.
