Grok 4.6
xAI's Grok release for coding, agentic tasks and knowledge work, which xAI's release notes credit to SpaceXSI. API model grok-4.6 with a 500K-token context window at US$2 per million input tokens and US$6 per million output tokens below 200K prompt tokens, twice that above; also on Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud and Microsoft Foundry (preview), and in GitHub Copilot and Cursor. xAI's models page points code and other text work to Grok 4.7.

Grok 4.6
Among the 40 current releases on this chart, Grok 4.6 ranks 4th of 25 on Answers in full and 9th of 38 on Tool use. On Factuality, Epoch AI's runs on SimpleQA Verified put Grok 4.6 14.1 points under GPT-5.5. It ranks lowest on Math, 21st of 28 and Agentic coding, 23rd of 31. Computer use, Multimodal and Instruction following: not yet published by xAI or any independent evaluator, checked Nov 2, 2026.
Each axis is one public benchmark at one setting, on its own fixed 0 to 100 scale, so adding a model never moves another. A dotted bridge crosses a missing result, which is never a zero. A hollow mark is a result from another source: the maker's own figure or another lab's run, where the benchmark's usual source has not tested the model yet. The readout names it.

How much of each OSWorld 2.1 workflow the model completes by operating a real Ubuntu desktop through screenshots, mouse and keyboard: all 108 long tasks across apps, files, mail and browsers, on the September 2026 v2.1 release of the task files. A point is the mean share of each task's weighted checks the model passes (the partial score, as a percentage). The OSWorld team's own runs come first. Where the team has not run a release, the point is another lab's run or the maker's own published figure, marked with who ran it and the benchmark it ran: OSWorld 2.1 in the maker's harness, OSWorld 2.0's offline set or the earlier OSWorld-Verified. Those points are drawn so the release has a figure, and they are not ranked against the team's runs.

The share of SpeechMap's 2,120 sensitive and controversial but legal requests the model answers in full: arguments, essays and explanations on contested themes in politics, religion, race, sex, history and similar topics, four wordings per theme across 530 themes. SpeechMap's judge rates each response complete, evasive (hedged or redirected), a denial, or an error (the provider's API blocked the request). Only complete answers count, so the point is the share answered in full: 100 minus the share hedged, refused or blocked by the provider. Higher means more lawful requests answered in full. The share blocked at the provider is printed apart in the table, because an API error is not the model declining. Where SpeechMap runs a release both with reasoning off and with reasoning on (a -reasoning or -thinking entry), the reasoning-on entry is used; a release with one entry uses that entry.

Price and speed
- Grok 4.6 lists at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens. For prompts under 200K tokens; $4 / $12 at 200K or more, as OpenRouter lists it. SpaceXAI pricing, Oct 31, 2026.
- Grok 4.6, at high effort, writes 69.2 output tokens per second on SpaceXAI's API, and its first token arrives 35 s after the request. Artificial Analysis, Oct 31, 2026.
- Fastest on the chart is the shortest time to a 500-token answer: time to first token plus 500 tokens at the median output speed.

Prices by route
The lowest standard rate is xAI API, at $2 / $6 per million input and output tokens. US dollars per million tokens, as each route lists them, one row per route and rate plan, cheapest standard rate first after the maker's own; a blended rate states its mix. OpenRouter's endpoints follow under one heading, each with its monitor's uptime over 1 day and 30 minutes and the context and output it serves.

What practitioners report
Grok 4.6 has enough accounts to score 2 of 7 axes so far.
Each figure is the share of accounts naming Grok 4.6 that speak well of it on that axis. An axis is scored once praise and concerns are both on record from at least five accounts by three authors. An account from the maker, a company that sells or serves the model, or the maker's expert program is listed and counts toward no figure.
| Axis | Favorable | Accounts |
|---|---|---|
| Quality and reasoningWhether its answers and code are right on the author's own task: reasoning, accuracy, instruction following, and consistency. | 86% | 6 favorable, 1 not, 7 authors |
| Tool use and structured outputWhether it calls tools correctly, returns valid structured output, and keeps agent loops on track. | Only praise on record | 2 favorable, 0 not, 2 authors |
| Long contextHow it holds up over long documents, large codebases, long sessions, and many images or PDFs. | No accounts yet | None yet |
| Developer experienceHow it is to build with: prompting, steering, effort settings, and support across SDKs and providers. | No accounts yet | None yet |
| CostWhat the work costs: price per task, token use, and what caching and batch save. | 20% | 1 favorable, 4 not, 5 authors |
| SpeedResponse time, time to first token, and throughput. | Needs 5 accounts from 3 authors | 1 favorable, 2 not, 3 authors |
| ReliabilityWhether requests keep succeeding: overloaded errors, outages, rate limits, and changes that broke what worked. | Only concerns on record | 0 favorable, 1 not, 1 author |
