Grok Bot Guide: Pricing, Access, Setup, and Security
Grok Bot is a persistent AI teammate that works on a cloud computer with a browser, filesystem, and terminal. It is available through paid individual Cursor plans, self-serve Cursor Teams, or a permanent link from an eligible individual SuperGrok or X Premium+ account. There is no separate Grok Bot subscription.
The link decision deserves care. A SuperGrok or X Premium+ link cannot be undone or moved to another Cursor account, and it does not stack with an existing Cursor allowance. Access rules and prices below were last verified September 30, 2026.
What Is Grok Bot? The Short Answer
Regular Grok is primarily a conversational AI experience. Grok Bot keeps a named role, memory, files, browser sessions, and work context so it can continue a job across sessions. Work can keep running in the cloud while your laptop is closed.
All Bots owned by one user share the same cloud computer. Each Bot has its own screen and conversational context, while files, browser sessions, and app logins are available across that user's Bots. That design makes handoffs easier and raises the stakes of every login you leave active.
Grok Bot runs on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android. The official overview describes its current platform and computer model.
Grok Bot Pricing and Eligible Plans
| Route | Current price | Grok Bot access | Billing and restrictions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cursor Hobby | Free | Trial usage credit only | A long task can consume the credit; no standing paid allowance |
| Cursor Pro | $20/month | Weekly usage | Tax excluded; annual billing advertises 20% savings |
| Cursor Pro+ | $60/month | Higher weekly usage | Tax excluded; annual billing advertises 20% savings |
| Cursor Ultra | $200/month | Highest individual Cursor usage | Tax excluded; usage is still metered |
| Cursor Teams | $40/user/month | Included for each self-serve seat | Team allowance; on-demand usage may be enabled |
Cursor's plans and billing documentation says Pro, Pro+, Ultra, and self-serve Teams include access. Individual SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus, SuperGrok Heavy, and X Premium+ accounts can also link permanently to one Cursor account; Lite, Team, and Enterprise SuperGrok accounts cannot. An eligible account link is a usage grant on the Cursor account. It does not change the Cursor subscription or create a second usage meter.
Weekly task counts are not published as a stable number. Task length and tool use affect consumption, and on-demand charges may allow work to continue after included usage is exhausted.
How to Set Up Grok Bot
- Choose the Cursor account that should own the Bot. Confirm the email before you continue.
- Install or open Grok Bot on a supported desktop or mobile platform.
- Sign in with Cursor Pro, Pro+, Ultra, or an eligible Teams account when that plan will provide usage.
- If you will use individual SuperGrok or X Premium+, open the Grok Bot plan screen and review the account shown on both sides.
- Link only after confirming the destination Cursor account. The link is permanent and cannot be moved.
- Create a Bot with a narrow role, a clear finish condition, and the smallest set of permissions needed.
- Run a low-risk task before connecting email, cloud storage, source control, or production systems.
- Review approvals, saved files, active sessions, and usage settings after the first run.
If you already pay for a Cursor plan with Grok Bot, linking SuperGrok adds no usage. Upgrade within Cursor when a higher Cursor allowance is the goal.
Your First Safe Grok Bot Task
Start with public or local information that carries no account risk. For example:
Read these three public product pages, compare price, billing period, and cancellation terms, then save a source-linked table. Stop and ask before opening any sign-in page.
This task has a visible finish line and lets you inspect citation quality, file handling, and approval behavior. Once the result is reliable, add one connection at a time. A short permission ladder makes it easier to identify which login or instruction caused an unexpected action.
Avoid using a first run for payroll, customer exports, production deployments, bulk messages, or irreversible account changes. Those jobs require tighter access rules and a deliberate human approval point.
What Grok Bot Can Access
| Capability | What it enables | Safer starting rule |
|---|---|---|
| Browser | Research and web-app work | Begin signed out; log in only for a defined task |
| Filesystem | Read and create persistent files | Use a dedicated folder with non-sensitive samples |
| Terminal | Run commands and tools | Keep production credentials unavailable |
| Connectors | Work with supported services | Grant the narrowest account scope available |
| Human takeover | Let you complete sensitive steps | Use it for passwords, payment, and ambiguous approvals |
| Routines/skills | Repeat learned workflows | Test with a reversible dataset first |
The useful principle is least privilege. Give the Bot the access needed for the current job, check the result, then decide whether it has earned a broader scope. A persistent computer can retain far more context than a single chat.
Shared Computer, Approvals, and Data Safety
Every Bot under one user shares files, browser sessions, and application logins on that user's cloud computer. Deleting one Bot does not automatically remove those shared artifacts. A second Bot may be able to use a session that the first Bot opened.
Before connecting a sensitive service:
- Use a work account with limited permissions where possible.
- Remove old downloads and secrets from the shared filesystem.
- Sign out of browser sessions that the Bot no longer needs.
- Revoke unused connector grants at the service provider.
- Require approval for sends, publishes, purchases, deletions, and production changes.
- Review active sessions and tokens after a high-risk task.
- Delete stored files and logins separately when retiring a Bot.
The official security and privacy guide should be the final reference before connecting company systems. Your organization's own data policy can be stricter.
Can a FamilyPro SuperGrok Plan Provide Grok Bot Access?
FamilyPro offers two Grok routes. The four-person shared SuperGrok plan costs $8.99 for one month. It suits ordinary Grok use at a low entry price, but account history, quota, credentials, and security settings are shared. Keep this plan separate from Cursor because a Grok Bot link is permanent and requires durable individual account ownership.
The FamilyPro SuperGrok Top-Up costs $28.00 for one private month on your own account. It uses the account UUID and is a one-time purchase with no automatic renewal. Submit it after the current paid plan ends. The top-up is usually completed within minutes and within 24 hours, with FamilyPro order support and downgrade warranty coverage.
The private top-up keeps SuperGrok on your own account, avoids automatic renewal, and includes FamilyPro order support. Use the same personal SuperGrok account you intend to keep, then link it only to the correct long-term Cursor account. Treat the shared SuperGrok plan as ordinary Grok access rather than a Grok Bot linking route.
Grok Bot FAQ
What is Grok Bot and how is it different from Grok?
Grok Bot is a persistent agent with a cloud computer, tools, files, and long-running work context. Regular Grok centers on conversational use.
How much does Grok Bot cost?
There is no separate subscription. Current access starts with Cursor Pro at $20 a month, a self-serve Teams seat, or an eligible individual SuperGrok or X Premium+ link.
Which Cursor and SuperGrok plans include Grok Bot?
Cursor Pro, Pro+, Ultra, and self-serve Teams include it. Individual SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus, SuperGrok Heavy, and X Premium+ can link. Lite, Team, and Enterprise SuperGrok accounts cannot use the personal link.
Can I use Grok Bot without a Cursor subscription?
Yes. An eligible individual SuperGrok or X Premium+ account can grant usage to a Cursor account that has no paid Cursor plan.
Can I unlink or move a SuperGrok account after linking it?
No. Official documentation says the link is permanent and cannot be moved to another Cursor account.
Do multiple Grok Bots have separate computers and credentials?
No. One user's Bots share a cloud computer, including files, browser sessions, and app logins. Their conversational memories remain distinct.
Does deleting a Bot remove browser sessions and files?
No. Clean up shared files, sessions, and credentials separately.
Can a FamilyPro shared SuperGrok account be linked safely?
No. A shared account does not provide the durable individual ownership required for a permanent Cursor link. Use the private $28.00 one-month top-up on your own eligible SuperGrok account instead.
Grok Bot becomes useful when the job is specific and its access is deliberate. Pick the long-term Cursor account first, start with a reversible task, and treat every persistent login as available to all Bots under that user.
