Grok is the AI assistant from xAI. You can chat with it, talk to it, and create images and videos, and its subscriptions are tied to the X platform.
This page summarises what xAI says on its official plans page, plus our own tips for getting better answers. The plans page showed prices in a local currency that was not UK pounds, so we do not quote a price here. Plans and limits change often, so confirm details on the official site before you buy.
