Grok 4.7
Grok 4.7
xAI's new flagship: strong on benchmarks, cheap on output, and less loved by human voters.
Updated
The read
Grok 4.7 arrived on 21 September and scores well on the Artificial Analysis index, level with Xiaomi's MiMo V2.6 Pro and ahead of GPT-5.6 Sol. Output is unusually cheap at six dollars per million tokens, and it keeps the family's habit of answering the question directly. Human voters on the arena rank it far lower than its benchmarks, below its own predecessor, so test it on your own prompts before you commit.
Where it shines
- Six dollars per million output tokens, low for this tier
- Half a million tokens of context
- Answers directly rather than hedging
Worth knowing first
- Human voters rank it below its own predecessor
- Prices double for prompts above 200,000 tokens

Provisional. This score is read from the product's public capability, not from the one-prompt rebuild the fully reviewed entries went through, so treat it as a placing rather than a verdict.
