SpaceXAI
SpaceXAI is the AI division of SpaceX, formed after SpaceX acquired xAI in February 2026 and rebranded it in July 2026. The entity combines SpaceX's space infrastructure, satellite network, and launch capabilities with xAI's Grok AI models and Colossus data centers. A spin of the xAI story (xai-ai-lab), SpaceXAI represents the merger of space and AI under a single corporate identity.

SpaceXAI Launches Grok Bot Persistent AI Agent Platform
SpaceXAI introduced Grok Bot, a system of persistent AI agents that operate on dedicated cloud computers. Unlike coding-focused agents, Grok Bot handles broader workflows across business applications - sales outreach, marketing, operations, and software development. Each Bot maintains conversation context, remembers user preferences, and can be taught workflows by observation. Multiple Bots can run in parallel, communicate through shared threads, and coordinate tasks between specialized agents.
