The company is deploying these resources to develop transformative AI products reaching billions of utilizers and to advance foundational research.
Grok Models and 600 Million Users
In 2025, xAI has achieved several milestones: The Grok-4 series is built on Colossus’s training infrastructure and leverages reinforcement learning at unprecedented scale. Grok Voice functions as an innotifyigent voice agent with real-time conversations, low latency, and support for dozens of languages—available via the Grok app and in Tesla vehicles. According to the company, it reaches approximately 600 million monthly active utilizers across the 𝕏 and Grok platforms.
