# xAI pays $300M to Telegram for AI Grok intergration

Elon Musk's Artificial Intelligence company, xAl chatbot Grok, is integrated into [Telegram](https://telegram.org/) apps available on the chat app’s platform for one year.

[xAI](https://x.ai/) will pay $300 million to Telegram in cash and equity, confirmed by Telegram Founder and CEO, Paul Durov, on Tuesday. Telegram also earns 50% of Grok Plus Subscription purchases through the app said Paul Durov.

xAI’s Grok chatbot, which was first offered to Telegram’s premium users earlier this year, might soon be available to everyone.

A video shared by Telegram CEO Pavel Durov on X shows that users can pin Grok at the top of their chats or ask it questions directly from the search bar, similar to how Meta AI works on Instagram and WhatsApp.
