|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flagship | grok-4.7source 1 | $2.00 | $6.00 | Listed 2026-09-21 |
| Balanced | none | Not mapped. xAI’s models page answers “Which model should I choose?” with one model, Grok 4.7. It names no balanced tier. The cheaper SKUs’ own pages describe what each can do (“Fast, reliable model with strong tool calling”) and say nothing about cost. | ||
| Economy | none | Not mapped. xAI prices grok-4.3, the grok-4.20 models, and grok-build-0.1 below Grok 4.7 (full catalog). No xAI page says which one to use for cost-sensitive work. | ||
