Okay, I will check the accuracy of the stored data for Grok's "Grok Voice Mode" feature. I will use web searches to verify the information regarding pricing tier availability, platform availability, current status, access gating, regional availability, the official URL, and any recent changes.

Perplexity

Result: Detected change

Full response

1. Pricing tier availability

INCORRECT. Stored data indicates Free tier has limited access (iOS only, Android requires subscription), while Premium, Premium+, and SuperGrok have full access with varying limits. Recent updates show Grok Voice Mode is now available to all users for free across all tiers, including 11 modes (2 of which are 18+ restricted), with no tier-based gating or specified usage limits mentioned[1]. This change was announced around March 4-5, 2026, expanding from prior Premium+/SuperGrok exclusivity[1].

2. Platform/surface availability

INCORRECT. Stored data lists mobile-only (iOS/Android via X app/standalone), no desktop/web/terminal, and API available. Current data confirms web availability (via grok.com or grok website, with left-panel "Voice" option, microphone access, and voice selection)[2][3]. Mobile (iOS/Android) remains supported per prior data, but no explicit contradictions or confirmations for Windows/macOS/Linux/terminal/API in recent results; web access directly conflicts with stored "❌" for web/Chrome[2][3].

3. Current status

CORRECT. Stored status "ga" (generally available) matches; feature is fully launched and open to all users with enhancements like 11 modes and captioning, no indications of beta/preview/deprecation[1].

4. Access gating

INCORRECT. Stored gating "paid" is outdated; feature is now free for all users, no longer paid-only[1].

5. Regional availability

No change detected. Stored info ("Available globally where X is available") has no contradicting data; results imply broad access without regional restrictions noted, though English-only support is mentioned[1].

6. Official URL

No official product/feature page identified. No dedicated xAI/Grok URL specified in results (e.g., access via grok.com or grok website per tutorials)[2][3]. No confirmation of a specific active page; primary access appears integrated into main Grok interface.

7. Recent changes

Major changes detected. Within the last 30 days (post-February 2026), Voice Mode expanded to all users (free), added 11 modes (including "Storyteller," "Unhinged," "Sexy" 18+), and voice captioning (English-only, aids learning); previously limited to Premium+/SuperGrok[1]. Web access tutorials emerged late 2025/early 2026[2][3]. Elon Musk hinted at voice improvements in February 2026[1]. No other changes like deprecation or new limits noted[1].
