Grok Bot gains cloud agent capabilities across expanded Cursor subscription tiers

Key points

  • Grok Bot now runs on persistent cloud computers with browser, file system and terminal access.
  • Availability expanded to Cursor Pro, Pro+, Ultra, Teams and X Premium+ subscribers.
  • The agent remains in beta, with early users reporting need for manual oversight on some workflows.

SpaceXAI has broadened access to Grok Bot, an autonomous agent capable of executing multi-step tasks on a persistent cloud computer, according to a report by Engadget. The company expanded the feature to SuperGrok, Cursor Pro and all Cursor Teams plans, while allowing X Premium+ subscribers to link accounts for access.SpaceXAI has made its Grok Bot agent available to more users by adding it to cheaper subscription plans and allowing account linking for X Premium+ members.SpaceXAI extended Grok Bot's cloud-based agent capabilities to Cursor Pro, Teams and X Premium+ tiers, enabling scheduled multi-step workflows with persistent state and human-in-the-loop approval gates. Each bot operates within Cursor's cloud environment, maintaining access to a browser, file system and terminal. Users provide an outcome and necessary tool access, allowing the job to continue running even after their local computer is closed.

  • Cursor Pro: $20 per month
  • Cursor Pro+: $60 per month
  • Cursor Ultra: $200 per month
  • Teams Standard: $40 per user per month
  • Teams Premium: $120 per user per month

Behind the figures

These figures represent the monthly subscription fees required to access Grok Bot through the respective Cursor plans. Engadget noted that all members of a self-serve Cursor Teams plan are granted access, while Enterprise customers must request access from their account team. The report described the array of subscriptions as a "growing pile" for a product still finding its feet.

What changes, what does not

Grok Bot is now available on cheaper tiers such as Cursor Pro and Teams Standard, whereas it was previously more restricted. The core capability remains unchanged: bots work inside other software, handling tedious clicks and returning only when assistance or approval is needed. SpaceXAI describes these bots as "AI teammates" that finish jobs end to end. The product remains in beta, meaning functionality may evolve and early users have reported some workflows require more babysitting than anticipated.reported

What builders can do with it

Developers can delegate tasks that require carrying context across conversations or repeating workflows at scheduled times. Use cases suggested by SpaceXAI include researching sales prospects, checking CRM activity, composing personalised outreach and leaving it for approval. Other applications involve reproducing software bugs, generating customer-health reports and creating executive digests from email and calendar sources.reported Builders must account for limitations such as CAPTCHAs, login requests and website blocks that prevent automation. Potentially consequential actions can be queued for human approval before the bot proceeds.

Why it matters

  • Developers can now run autonomous agents on persistent cloud infrastructure, enabling background task execution without local machine dependency.
  • The expansion to lower-cost tiers like Cursor Pro ($20/month) makes cloud-based AI agents accessible to individual developers and smaller teams.
  • The requirement for human approval on consequential actions provides a safety mechanism for automated workflows involving sensitive data or actions.
  • Beta status and reported need for manual oversight indicate that fully autonomous, unattended workflows may not yet be reliable for critical production tasks.
