About Grok
Grok is SpaceXAI/xAI's model family for chat, coding, agentic tasks, and knowledge work. Grok 4.5 is now listed in xAI's official documentation as an API model for coding, agentic tasks, and knowledge work, priced at $2 per 1M input tokens and $6 per 1M output tokens. AI Linkbase is treating this as a coding-model and low-cost API update, but not automatically changing rankings until independent benchmarks, availability, and enterprise reliability are clearer.
✅ Pros
- +Officially positioned for coding, agentic tasks, and knowledge work
- +Competitive $2 input / $6 output per million token pricing
- +Relevant for developers comparing low-cost API options
- +Configurable reasoning effort is useful for cost/performance tuning
❌ Cons
