xAI has put Grok Build, a coding agent that runs from the terminal, into early beta for subscribers on two paid tiers: SuperGrok at $30 a month and X Premium+ at $40 a month. Access to apps shared out of the agent can now be managed from the web, on mobile and through the CLI, according to a post on Threads.

At a glance

  • Access controls for apps shared out of Grok Build now reach three surfaces at once, the web, the mobile app and the command line interface, according to the Threads post.
  • The tier change landed on May 24, 2026, when eligibility moved beyond SuperGrok Heavy to cover every SuperGrok subscriber at $30 a month and every X Premium+ subscriber at $40 a month.
  • Grok Build is a coding agent that runs from the terminal, and xAI announced it officially on May 25, 2026, a day after the subscription requirement widened.

Terminal-based coding agents have become a crowded category, and the practical constraint on them is rarely the model: it is what happens when the output has to be handed to someone else. Moving Grok Build off the Heavy tier and onto the $30 and $40 subscriptions reads as an effort to widen the installed base, and the sharing controls appear aimed at the same shift.

The access management applies to apps that Grok Build users share with others. According to the Threads post, the controls are available on the web, on mobile and in the CLI, which puts the same option in front of users on every surface the product currently runs on.

Grok Build reached its current audience in two steps. On May 24, 2026 xAI widened eligibility from SuperGrok Heavy subscribers to everyone on SuperGrok and X Premium+. The official announcement of the product followed on May 25, 2026, with the agent still in early beta.

SuperGrok is priced at $30 a month and X Premium+ at $40 a month, and both tiers now carry the agent that previously required SuperGrok Heavy. Grok Build runs from the terminal, which keeps it in a command-line workflow rather than a chat window.

What the access settings leave open

No date has been given for Grok Build leaving early beta, and the available material does not describe how granular the new access settings are, whether they operate per user, per link or per app. Pricing for the two eligible tiers stands at $30 and $40 a month, and both carry the same early beta access.
