Grok Free Trials in 2026: Free Plan, X Subscription Tiers, and Real Offers
Updated: 7d
Grok has a permanent $0 Free plan, so using it at no cost does not depend on a trial.
Since mid-October 2026, new paid sign-ups go through The X Subscription, which replaced SuperGrok, Cursor and X Premium as separate purchases for new customers.
The five tiers are Free at $0, Plus at $8, Premium at $30, Super at $100 and Ultra at $200 per month.
Time-limited premium access appears only through specific promotions, such as the limited-usage Grok Bot trial opened in August 2026, and not as a standard offer for every account.
........
Tier | Monthly | Annual | Usage vs Plus | Grok Bot and video |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Free | $0 | — | Limited | No |
Plus | $8 | $80 | Base allowance | No |
Premium | $30 | $300 | 4x | Yes |
Super | $100 | $1,000 | 15x | Yes |
Ultra | $200 | $2,000 | 50x | Yes |

GROK FREE TRIAL IN NOVEMBER 2026.
The free route into Grok is a permanent plan, while paid-tier trials depend on the offer shown to each account.
The plan pages for The X Subscription list no universal free trial of Plus, Premium, Super or Ultra.
Posts describing seven-day or fourteen-day premium windows refer to earlier campaigns that have ended.
Free does not convert into a paid subscription and has no end date.
A promotion applies only when it appears in the official checkout of Grok, X, the App Store or Google Play for that specific account.
··········
WHAT THE GROK FREE PLAN INCLUDES.
Free covers daily use of the main Grok products, with lower limits and without agent and video features.
The Free tier gives daily access to Grok Chat, Imagine, Voice and Build on the web and in the iOS and Android apps.
Real-time web and X search and connectors are available, with tighter limits than on paid plans.
Free accounts also receive a starter allowance for Cursor coding agents, a result of the bundle between Grok and Cursor.
Grok Build, the in-chat environment for creating sites, apps and dashboards, has been open to every plan since August 2026, Free included.
Grok Bot, video generation and the latest models start from the Premium tier.
··········
GROK FREE LIMITS AND THE “FREE LIMIT REACHED” MESSAGE.
No fixed number of free messages is published, so the reset time shown inside each account is the only reliable reference.
Free Chat and Voice limits are separate from the weekly usage pool of paid plans and reset on their own schedule.
No public table states how many prompts a free account can send or how long a reset takes.
Fixed counts such as a set number of messages every two hours come from earlier phases of the product and no longer describe current behavior.
Paid subscribers who exhaust their weekly allowance fall back to these free Chat and Voice limits until the pool refreshes.
Error messages, reported reset times and recent lockout cases are covered in our guide to Grok free limits.

X SUBSCRIPTION TIERS FOR GROK.
Paid Grok access now comes in one bundle that also covers Cursor and X Premium benefits.
The X Subscription launched in mid-October 2026 and is the only paid option offered to new customers.
Every paid seat has one weekly allowance shared between Grok and Cursor first-party usage.
Allowances are expressed as multiples of Plus: 4x for Premium, 15x for Super and 50x for Ultra, without published message or video counts.
Plus at $8 unlocks full Chat, Voice, Imagine and Build, together with the X checkmark, creator tools and fewer ads.
Premium at $30 adds Grok Bot, video generation, the latest models, faster Chat and full X Premium+ benefits.
Super adds priority model access at peak times, and Ultra adds the earliest access to new models and products.
Annual billing costs the equivalent of ten monthly payments.
........
Tier | 12 monthly payments | Annual price | Annual saving |
|---|---|---|---|
Plus | $96 | $80 | $16 |
Premium | $360 | $300 | $60 |
Super | $1,200 | $1,000 | $200 |
Ultra | $2,400 | $2,000 | $400 |

GROK BOT TRIAL AND LIMITED OFFERS.
The one documented trial of 2026 concerns Grok Bot, not a full paid plan.
In August 2026 Grok Bot was opened to users without SuperGrok Plus or Cursor Pro+ through a limited-usage free trial.
That trial was defined by usage rather than by a number of days, and it did not unlock the rest of the paid feature set.
Under The X Subscription, Grok Bot belongs to Premium, Super and Ultra, and the plan pages list no trial for new accounts.
Account-specific discounts can still appear in the app or at checkout, and the renewal price is the figure to compare, not the first charge.

LEGACY SUPERGROK AND X PREMIUM+ SUBSCRIPTIONS.
Existing subscribers keep their old plans, prices and features until they decide to switch.
SuperGrok at $30, SuperGrok Plus at $100 and X Premium+ continue for customers who already pay for them.
Moving to The X Subscription is optional, and the unused period of the cancelled plan is refunded pro rata.
Remaining legacy customers are expected to be migrated eventually, with advance notice and no published date.
For a SuperGrok subscriber, Premium at the same $30 adds Cursor and X Premium+ benefits on top of Grok access.
··········
HOW TO CHECK A GROK PROMOTION BEFORE PAYING.
Four details decide whether an offer makes sense and where it must later be cancelled.
Record the promotional price, the end date, the price charged after the offer and the platform that bills the subscription.
Subscriptions bought on grok.com are managed in Grok billing, App Store purchases in Apple settings and Google Play purchases in the Play Store.
Signing in with a different identity on another platform can make an active subscription look missing.
Screenshots from other accounts, expired referral pages and old launch campaigns do not show that an offer applies to a new account.
··········
GROK FREE VERSUS PLUS AND PREMIUM.
The right starting plan depends on how often Grok is used and whether agent and video features are needed.
Free covers occasional questions, search and short writing tasks.
Plus at $8 suits regular users who keep reaching free limits and also use X creator features.
Premium at $30 is the entry point for Grok Bot, video generation and the latest models.
Costs for every tier, API pricing and business plans are in our Grok pricing guide.
