Grok 4.6

SpaceXAI · Released Aug 2026

Conditional

Frontier-competitive at $2/$6 with a 61 AA Intelligence Index (ties GPT-5.6 Sol) and GDPVal-AA behind only Claude Opus 5 — strong out of the gate, but one evaluator deep and one day old, so hold production bets until broader benchmarks land.

Is it right for you?

Good for

  • Expected to lead on token efficiency and per-task cost among frontier models, continuing Grok 4.5's ~4x token savings on coding tasks
  • Trained alongside Cursor IDE data for strong repository-scale coding and agentic task performance
  • Targets ~80 TPS throughput with custom C/C++ inference for fast iteration loops

Not good for

  • Strictly capped at 500K context, not 1M+ — Anthropic and Google offer larger windows for long-document work
  • EU availability may lag behind US launch, as was the case with Grok 4.5
  • No independent benchmarks or third-party evaluation available yet — all claims are vendor projections
