X has begun distributing funds to an exclusive group of developers in the United States who create high-traffic AI assistants for the Grok platform. Through an invite-only pilot, SpaceXAI distributes cash payments every 2 weeks based on total bot usage and interaction frequency rather than social metrics like impressions. To remain eligible, builders must post links to their public bots on the platform at least 2 times per pay cycle and maintain an X Money account.
The program is expected to run for approximately 2 months and encourages the development of useful AI workflows. One developer reported earning $500 during a single 2 week period using a template for home robotics. Payouts are processed through X's payment system to reward creators who provide consistent value over time.
