From Fox News: The Trump administration agency that manages the government’s real estate holdings, procurement and technology services is partnering with Elon Musk’s xAI in a move it says will cost effectively streamline federal workflow.
The General Services Administration announced on Thursday morning that federal agencies will now have access to Grok 4 and Grok 4 Fast as part of an agreement with xAI, valid until March 2027, that Musk says will make government drive innovation in government.
“xAI has the most powerful AI compute and most capable AI models in the world. Thanks to President Trump and his administration, xAI’s frontier AI is now unlocked for every federal agency empowering the U.S. Government to innovate faster and accomplish its mission more effectively than ever before,” said xAI cofounder and CEO Elon Musk. “We look forward to continuing to work with President Trump and his team to rapidly deploy AI throughout the government for the benefit of the country.”
The announcement was made in a press release by the U.S. General Services Administration, and includes the following:
Today, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) announced a major OneGov agreement with xAI, making Grok AI models accessible to federal agencies for only $0.42 per organization. This unique offer is in place for 18 months—the longest term for a OneGov AI agreement to date—and is valid until March 2027. The agreement includes access to Grok 4 and Grok 4 Fast, xAI’s advanced reasoning models. Additionally, xAI is committing dedicated engineers to assist participating agencies with rapidly and effectively implementing these AI tools into their workstreams.
“Widespread access to advanced AI models is essential to building the efficient, accountable government that taxpayers deserve—and to fulfilling President Trump’s promise that America will win the global AI race,” said Federal Acquisition Service Commissioner Josh Gruenbaum. “We value xAI for partnering with GSA—and dedicating engineers—to accelerate the adoption of Grok to transform government operations.”
The press release also announced:
In support of the White House’s vision for responsible AI innovation, as outlined in America’s AI Action Plan, this agreement provides federal agencies with secure access to advanced reasoning models that will enhance mission delivery.
GSA’s OneGov initiative simplifies AI procurement, offering access to frontier AI models at competitive prices to facilitate the acceleration of federal AI adoption, help save taxpayer money, and make advanced AI accessible to all government entities.
Access to AI tools is essential to meeting President Trump’s priorities to modernize federal government operations, from predictive analytics in government acquisition to intelligent automation in administrative processes. This partnership will empower agencies to tackle complex challenges with greater agility and insight, ultimately leading to more effective governance and improved outcomes for the American people.
This agreement is effective immediately, and federal agencies can begin leveraging the benefits of Grok AI models through GSA’s established procurement channels.
