Model Portfolio
Tracked Models
Pulled from the models catalog and linked directly back to detailed model pages.
xAI's latest and most cost-efficient model. Supports a massive 2M-token context window and delivers near-frontier capability (Intelligence Index 24) at just $0.20/$0.50 per million tokens. Available in both fast-response and thinking modes. The cheapest available frontier AI model option.
xAI's frontier reasoning model with always-on "Think" reasoning and an optional Heavy tier that runs five Grok 4 agents in parallel. Achieves 88% on GPQA Diamond and approximately 70.8-75% on SWE-bench Verified. Features a 260K-token context window.
A lightweight model that thinks before responding. Fast, smart, and great for logic-based tasks that don't require deep domain knowledge. Offers strong reasoning at a fraction of Grok 3's cost.
xAI's heavyweight contender, trained on the Colossus 100K-GPU cluster. A 3T MoE model that emerged as a serious frontier player with top-tier MMLU and AIME scores, proving that brute-force compute still has surprises left.
