SpaceXAI

What SpaceXAI does

SpaceXAI (legal entity X.AI LLC, also operating as xAI) is a private AI company founded in 2023 by Elon Musk as a subsidiary of SpaceX. The company develops frontier AI models under the Grok brand and operates the Colossus supercomputer — the world's largest AI training system with 200,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs in a single interconnected cluster, built in 122 days and scaled to 200K GPUs in 92 days, with a roadmap to 1 million GPUs. SpaceXAI's product portfolio spans text, code, voice, image, and video modalities accessible through a unified API, the Grok Build CLI coding agent, the Voice Agent Builder, the Imagine API, and Microsoft Office add-ins (Outlook, Excel, Word, PowerPoint). The flagship model Grok 4.5 is third-party validated as leading DeepSWE, Terminal Bench 2.1, SWE Bench Pro, Tau Voice Leaderboard, and Artificial Analysis Text-to-Video Rankings.

The company operates a multi-modal GTM combining product-led growth (free tier, $30/month SuperGrok subscription, self-serve API console) with enterprise field sales (Grok Business at $30/seat/month, custom Enterprise tier with SSO/SCIM, customer-managed encryption, dedicated infrastructure) and a dedicated government vertical (Grok Government with USG engineering team). Distribution channels include Microsoft Marketplace, Azure AI Foundry, Oracle OCI Generative AI, and Google Cloud Vertex Model Garden. The company serves individual developers, enterprises, government agencies, and consumers across offices in Palo Alto, Seattle, Memphis, London, Austin, and New York, with gigawatt-scale data centers in Memphis, Mississippi, and planned expansions in Texas.

Revenue is generated from consumer subscriptions, pay-per-token API pricing, enterprise licensing, and a neocloud compute business that leases Colossus excess capacity to third parties including Anthropic, Google, and Reflection. The company also processes over 1M API calls per day and 10M+ daily queries. SpaceXAI has raised over $39B in disclosed funding across 12 rounds, with a $20B Series E closing in January 2026 led by NVIDIA, Valor Equity Partners, Fidelity, Morgan Stanley, and others, and holds SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA eligibility, GDPR, CCPA, and additional privacy compliance certifications. Major strategic actions include the $33B acquisition of X (formerly Twitter) in March 2025 for exclusive data access and the acquisition of Hotshot for video generation capabilities. The company is controlled by parent SpaceX, whose Q1 capital expenditure of $7.7B (nearly triple year-ago) reflects aggressive infrastructure investment.
