With 100 DEFAULT requests resetting every 2 hours, you’ll rarely feel limited. This plan also includes 30 THINK requests and 30 DEEPSEARCH requests, both of which reset every 2 hours as well. That’s a lot of power packed into just one subscription!
The 2 hour reset window is a good balance for anyone who needs consistent and frequent access to advanced features. Whether you’re conducting deep research, brainstorming ideas, or simply experimenting with Grok’s capabilities, this plan ensures you’re never left waiting.
🌟 Premium: The Balanced Middle Ground
For those who don’t need quite as much firepower but still want more flexibility than the free tier offers, the Premium plan strikes a nice balance. You’ll get:
- 50 DEFAULT requests every 2 hours
- 20 THINK requests every 2 hours
- 20 DEEPSEARCH requests every 2 hours
This plan is perfect for users who need reliable access to Grok’s advanced features without going overboard. It’s ideal for students, professionals, or anyone who uses Grok regularly but doesn’t require the extensive limits of the SuperGrok tier.
🆓 Free Plan: A Solid Starting Point
Not ready to commit? No problem! The free plan lets you dip your toes into the world of Grok without spending a dime. Here’s what you get:
- 20 DEFAULT requests every 2 hours
- 10 THINK requests every 24 hours
- 10 DEEPSEARCH requests every 24 hours
While the daily reset for THINK and DEEPSEARCH requests might feel limiting, it’s still enough for casual users or those just getting started. If you’re curious but not yet ready to invest, this plan gives you a taste of what Grok can do.
Key Differences at a Glance
Let’s zoom in on what really sets these plans apart:
- Request Limits: SuperGrok offers the highest limits across all request types (DEFAULT, THINK, and DEEPSEARCH), while Premium provides a balanced middle ground. The free plan has more modest limits but still allows for meaningful exploration.
- Reset Times: Both SuperGrok and Premium plans reset their limits every 2 hours, giving users frequent opportunities to refresh their usage. On the other hand, the Free plan resets THINK and DEEPSEARCH requests only once every 24 hours, something to keep in mind if you’re planning intensive use.
- Who It’s For:
- SuperGrok: Power users, researchers, and professionals who need constant access.
- Premium: Regular users who want flexibility without going all-in.
- Free: Casual users or those testing the waters.
So, Which Plan Should You Choose?
It all depends on how often and how intensively you plan to use Grok 3. If you’re a heavy user looking for maximum flexibility and minimal downtime, go for SuperGrok / Premium+. If you’re somewhere in between casual and heavy use, then Premium is likely your sweet spot. And if you’re just starting out or only need occasional access, stick with the Free plan until you’re ready to upgrade.
No matter which plan you choose, Grok 3 makes sure that everyone has access to its powerful tools whether you’re brainstorming ideas or diving deep into complex searches. So go ahead and pick the plan that fits your needs best, you’ve got some exploring to do!
