Vantage Launches Support for SpaceXAI Costs
Track Grok and SpaceXAI API spend by model, unit type, and API key alongside your broader cloud and AI infrastructure.

Today, Vantage announces support for SpaceXAI cost and usage data, giving customers the ability to track Grok and SpaceXAI API consumption and costs directly in Vantage. Once connected, Vantage automatically ingests SpaceXAI usage and cost data, allowing customers to monitor spend by model and SKU, billable unit type, and API key; set budgets; detect spend anomalies; and allocate SpaceXAI costs alongside their broader cloud and AI infrastructure.

SpaceXAI operates the Grok family of models and the SpaceXAI API, which teams increasingly use for text, reasoning, coding, image, and voice workloads. Enterprise customers often run these models alongside major cloud providers and other AI platforms, making it difficult to see AI spend in one place. Previously, Vantage customers relied on manual exports to bring SpaceXAI costs into Vantage via Custom Providers.
Now, with SpaceXAI cost support in Vantage, customers grant Vantage read access via a SpaceXAI Management key, and Vantage automatically ingests their costs, displaying them alongside their other infrastructure costs. Vantage retrieves usage and cost data from the SpaceXAI Management API, broken down by model and SKU (for example, grok-4.3 and grok-4.3 Priority), billable unit type (such as prompt, completion, cached, and reasoning text tokens), and API key. Customers can view SpaceXAI spend alongside AWS, GCP, Azure, and other AI provider costs in Cost Reports, apply Virtual Tags to allocate token costs to teams or products, and configure Budgets and Anomaly Detection on SpaceXAI spend.
The SpaceXAI integration is now available to all Vantage customers. To connect, go to the Integrations page in account settings and select SpaceXAI. You can learn more via the SpaceXAI section in Vantage's documentation.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is being launched today?
Vantage is launching native support for SpaceXAI cost and usage data. Customers can now connect SpaceXAI to Vantage, enabling automatic ingestion and visibility of Grok and SpaceXAI API costs.
2. Who has access to this integration?
The SpaceXAI integration is available to all Vantage customers across all subscription tiers.
3. How much does this integration cost?
There is no additional fee for using the integration. However, SpaceXAI costs will be included in quota tier enforcement. If your SpaceXAI costs push you over your current tier limit, you may be prompted to upgrade. See the Pricing page for details.
4. How does the integration work?
Vantage uses a SpaceXAI Management key to ingest usage and cost data from the SpaceXAI Management API billing usage endpoint (POST /v1/billing/teams/{team_id}/usage). After providing a Management key, Vantage begins ingesting cost and usage data broken down by model and SKU, billable unit type, and API key, with daily granularity.
5. What permissions are required on the SpaceXAI side?
You need a Management key created from the SpaceXAI Console under Settings > Management Keys. Inference API keys from the API Keys page cannot access the billing endpoints Vantage uses.
6. What permissions are needed within Vantage?
You must have a Vantage Owner or Integration Owner role to add or remove the SpaceXAI integration.
7. What permissions does Vantage have in my SpaceXAI account?
Vantage uses the Management key to read team billing and usage data only. Vantage cannot run inference, deploy models, or perform any other actions that incur costs in your SpaceXAI account.
8. What dimensions can SpaceXAI costs be filtered and grouped by?
SpaceXAI reports support aggregating and filtering on the following dimensions:
- Organization (name provided at time of integration)
- Service (model or SKU, e.g.,
grok-4.3,grok-4.3 Priority,Speech-to-Text,File Storage) - Category (billable unit type, e.g.,
Prompt text tokens,Completion text tokens,Cached prompt text tokens,Reasoning text tokens) - Resource (the SpaceXAI API key ID; an all-zero ID indicates unattributed usage)
- Charge Type (Usage)
9. Can I view usage data for SpaceXAI?
Yes. Usage data is available for SpaceXAI, measured in the provider's billable unit types, such as prompt, completion, cached, and reasoning text tokens, as well as generated images and videos, web and X searches, code executions, and input audio seconds.
10. Are there Active Resources for SpaceXAI?
No. Active Resources for SpaceXAI are not available at launch.
11. How often does SpaceXAI data refresh in the Vantage console?
SpaceXAI data refreshes daily in the Vantage console.
12. What happens if I remove the SpaceXAI integration?
If you remove your SpaceXAI integration from Vantage, all associated costs will be removed from the Vantage console.
13. How far back will the data go?
Vantage imports up to six months of historical SpaceXAI cost data upon initial connection. Ongoing retention follows your Vantage data retention settings.
14. Can I have multiple SpaceXAI account integrations?
Yes. You can connect multiple SpaceXAI accounts as separate integrations in Vantage, each with its own Management key.
15. How are prepaid credits and tax handled?
Vantage reports gross rated usage from the SpaceXAI Management API. Prepaid credit drawdowns and VAT are not netted from usage costs; they are surfaced by SpaceXAI on separate billing endpoints and are used as reconciliation checks rather than a second cost stream.
