obviously, I would have to pay the $8 and $30. It would they were separate. Now that they are together, I'm like incentivized to actually upgrade. Command AI We have now X subscriptions, which is combining your Twitter, also X, the bot, cursor, and X Premium, all of those subscriptions into one. These like five different tiers, the free version, the $8, 30, 100, and 200. And we can actually check the pricing here. It looks pretty simple and clean. So, less ads, enhanced creator tools, that's why we're on it, better analytics. And now you have like Grok chat, Grok API access, and cursor in the same subscription. That's really nice. So, now I can use cursor to some degree without paying more. I I really like that. [laughter] Some people might want to compartmentalize their subscriptions. They want their cursor account. You know what I mean? They just want to pay for their cursor stuff and so that they use Some people might be account sharing. Exactly, right. Yeah. And you can actually keep your subscriptions as they are. You don't have to do this, like this unification, at least for now. Now, this is where it gets interesting for me because now that I'm paying eight bucks and I get all of this, I'm actually thinking, should I get the premium and get the Grok bot as well. Are you using Grok bot then? No, I'm not, but I'm I'm like if I can try it, you know, that's what I'm thinking. Like I haven't upgraded but like I could try it. Anyway, then you have the super and the super is like 15x more usage compared to plus and I Yeah, we need to get better information on what they mean compared like because they could technically mean the weekly limit or the hourly limit, which are completely different. Like you could technically get five times more I'm just making an upper number and not 15 if they mean either of those things. You know what I'm saying? Because I'm not aware of where Cursor is right now. I haven't opened up Cursor in in probably over a year now. How do your subscriptions work in Cursor? Do you get like you just get that in API costs or do they have their own plan where you Pricing page is pretty much identical. Can't buy Cursor on its own, you buy it through Cursor, but you get X features as well. So it's the same subscription, you just buy it through a different place, but it's the same and it gives you this Okay, I think maybe I'm not understanding it correctly. I'm just curious to know how how what your plan gets you in Cursor. That's all I'm asking. It's like what does your plan get you inside of Cursor? Let's say you just use Cursor. What does it in Cursor? How much you use? Well, it tells you not much. It just tells you you get agent. For example, if you get the $200, you get the agent, Claude agent automation, but it doesn't tell you how much how many tokens, but they never told us how much you get actually. It's just kind of they they might change it in the middle of your subscription period. Okay, it would Well, it does say third-party models at API list prices. So that's fewer to have this subscription, but just use Claude as an example. Your account will just be deducted at API prices. Whereas I'm guessing for Cursor's models or SpaceX AI's models, whatever the [ __ ] it is right now, you probably just get an unknown amount like we do in Claude 5X or 10X or OpenAI, you know, 5X, whatever it is. It's funny how Grok Bot though is reserved for premium. Like this has always confused me why Grok Bot is such a premium product for them. Well, it takes a lot It probably uses a lot of tokens.
