X Corp. is an American technology company headquartered in Bastrop, Texas.[5] Established by Elon Musk in 2023 as the successor to Twitter, Inc., it is a wholly owned subsidiary of X Holdings Corp., which is itself mostly owned by Musk. The company owns the social networking service X (formerly known as Twitter), and has announced plans to use it as a base for other offerings. They also own the trademarks of services Vine and Periscope which were also previously owned by Twitter. While the official name of the company and social network is now X, many users and media outlets continue to refer to it as Twitter.[6][7][8]
The company has a partnership with xAI, another company founded by Musk, where the Grok and Aurora models are used on the X platform.[9][10][11]
