- X Pro isn't sold on its own. It used to come with the cheaper X Premium plan (around $8/mo), but in March 2026 X moved it behind the top X Premium+ tier, roughly $40 a month (about $395 a year), so the real cost of using X Pro is a Premium+ subscription.
- It only manages X, so the value is entirely about how much you live on that one network.
- X has signalled a replacement product may follow, so the access terms here may change.
