Key Terms
- Grok 4.7 - SpaceXAI's flagship model for coding and knowledge work, launched Sep 21, 2026. New, larger base model than Grok 4.6, longer reinforcement-learning run weighted toward multi-hour tasks, 500K context, May 2026 knowledge cutoff, reasoning efforts low to xhigh (default high). Source: xAI – Grok 4 7 , xAI – Grok 4.7
- Long-context pricing (200K threshold) - every text model is now billed in two tiers: requests whose prompt reaches 200K tokens pay the higher rate for ALL tokens in the request, not just the tokens above the threshold. Example: a 250K-token prompt on Grok 4.7 costs $4/MTok input on all 250K tokens. Source: xAI – Models
- Cached input - reused prompt prefixes stored server-side. $0.50/MTok (under 200K) on Grok 4.7/4.6, $0.30 on Grok 4.5, $0.20 on Grok 4.3 and grok-build-0.1; the over-200K tier doubles each cached price. Source: xAI – Models
- Grok Build - xAI's terminal coding agent (command
grok), open-source since July 15, 2026.

Latest Changes
Changes since the 2026-08 report.
- New flagship model: Grok 4.7 launched Sep 21 at $2/$6 per MTok (prompts under 200K tokens) and $4/$12 at or above, 500K context, May 2026 knowledge cutoff, same price as Grok 4.6; available day one in Cursor, Grok Build, the Grok API, and third-party harnesses and routers. Source: xAI – Grok 4 7
- First-party benchmarks published: the 4.7 launch included a full benchmark table (CursorBench 4.0 46.3%, DeepSWE v1.1 71.0% high effort, Terminal-Bench 4.0 37.6%, EEBench 64.0%), closing August's "shipped without published benchmarks" gap. Source: xAI – Grok 4 7
- Fast variant announced: a Grok 4.7 fast variant with twice the output speed at twice the price ($4/$12 per MTok) was announced in the launch post; it does not appear as a separate row on the docs models page as of Sep 30. Source: xAI – Grok 4 7
- Cached input repriced across the lineup: Grok 4.7/4.6 cached input is $0.50/MTok (under 200K) and $1.00 above; Grok 4.5 is $0.30/$0.60. Older models (Grok 4.3, 4.20, grok-build-0.1) stay at $0.20/$0.40. Source: xAI – Models
- Rate limits raised on flagships: Grok 4.6 and 4.7 model pages list 150 requests/second and 50,000,000 tokens/minute; Grok 4.3 remains at 37 RPS and 10M TPM. Source: xAI – Grok 4.7 , xAI – Grok 4.3
- New API region: Grok 4.6/4.7 are served in us-east-1, us-west-2, and us-central-1; eu-west-1 remains only on the older models' pages. Source: xAI – Grok 4.6
- Batch API exists, but not for flagships: the docs now document a Batch API at a 20% discount, supported on Grok 4.3; Grok 4.7 and Grok 4.6 both state "Batch API: Not supported." Source: xAI – Grok 4.3 , xAI – Grok 4.7
- Grok Build gained memory (Sep 16): background capture of conventions, decisions, and project facts after each turn, per-project plus global notes,
/memorybrowser and/dreamtopic-file compaction; secrets and task state are explicitly excluded. Source: xAI – Grok Build Memory - Enterprise deployment documentation shipped: new docs cover corporate OIDC login (Entra ID, Okta, Auth0), device-code flow, MDM policy pinning via
requirements.toml, sandbox profiles, disabling bypass-permissions org-wide, Claude Codemanaged-settings.jsoncompatibility, and team-level ZDR; August's "enterprise controls absent" characterization no longer holds for the CLI.

Notes on plan limits:
- Concrete usage caps (messages/day, requests/hour, tokens/month) are still not published for any consumer tier; the page uses "generous limits", "higher rate limits", and "significantly higher usage" without numbers. See Transparency Gaps.
- The SuperGrok tier's headline model inclusion is still Grok 4.6, not Grok 4.7, ten days after the 4.7 launch; no consumer 4.7 timeline is published. Sources: xAI – Pricing , xAI – Grok 4 7
- Grok Build itself is listed as available across all plans in the comparison table and on web/mobile since Aug 19 ("Grok Build on web and mobile", every plan). Source: xAI – Grok Build For Everyone
- The pricing page's Business card shows "$30 /month" without stating whether it is per seat or per team; the June report read it as per-user, and the current page does not resolve the ambiguity.

Latest News
Grok 4.7 Launch (September 21, 2026)
Grok 4.7 launched as SpaceXAI's "most powerful model for coding and knowledge work. Twice as fast, at half the price of comparable models." New, larger base model; longer RL run weighted toward many-hour tasks; natively trained on the Grok Bot harness; 500K context; May 2026 knowledge cutoff; priced $2/$6 (under 200K) with a fast variant at 2x speed and 2x price; available day one in Cursor, Grok Build, the API, and third-party harnesses/routers. Full benchmark tables in the section above. Source: xAI – Grok 4 7
Memory in Grok Build (September 16, 2026)
Grok Build now writes memory notes (conventions, decisions, project facts) in the background after each completed turn, reads them on return to a project, and compacts them into topic files via /dream; /memory gives a read-only browser. Secrets, task state, and anything already covered by repo docs are excluded. Notes are per-project plus a global preference set. Source: xAI – Grok Build Memory
Grok Bot for Enterprise (September 3, 2026) and Team Bots (September 28, 2026)
Grok Bot (always-on agents with their own cloud computer) became available to enterprises Sep 3, with two weeks of free usage for Grok and Cursor Enterprise customers and the ability to invite an entire organization including users without a seat. Team Bots (Sep 28) added shared AI teammates "that learn as they work." A procurement deployment post (Sep 4) claims Grok Bot found more than $100,000 in direct savings given access to vendor spend, contracts, and usage data.

Community Signals
The Grok 4.7 launch drew the largest xAI coding thread of the month on HackerNews: 609 points and 540 comments. News – Item
Launch thread: pricing credibility vs. quality skepticism (609 points, 540 comments)
- moojacob, on the launch timing and margin: "Apparently Grok 4.7 has 40% more weights than Grok 4.6, but the price ($6 output token, $2 input) is the same... they delayed the release of Grok 4.7 almost two weeks past the original date... XAI also waited the day before Opus 5.5 is rumored to launch." News – Item (the "40% more weights" figure is a community claim, not confirmed by xAI)
- attentive, on cache economics: "$0.50 for cache reads, which is 25% of input. While other models are 10% of input. And like that grok4.7 cache reads are more expensive than sol's (at $0.40/mil)." News – Item
- slowin, on agent reliability: "Grok will end tasks almost immediately and claim 'Done!'. It's definitely the laziest and most 'dishonest' of all the models... I can't use Grok for any serious coding task." News – Item
- simianwords, on chat quality: "it's by far the worst one amongst Claude, ChatGPT and even Deepseek, Gemini etc. The personality is bland and it doesn't work nearly as hard or even tries to help." News – Item
- petesergeant, a positive counter-signal on code review: "Grok and Zai have both been excellent as adjunct code-reviews, on their cheapest plans... Grok and Zai usually find something worth fixing that the others have missed." News – Item
- rayiner, on non-coding strengths: "I really like Grok for legal research (as opposed to code). It's got a noticeable edge in getting to the point compared to Opus 5." News – Item
Independent analysis thread (13 points)
Artificial Analysis's "Grok 4.7 Intelligence, Performance and Price Analysis" was submitted Sep 21 and reached 13 points. News – Item , Artificialanalysis – Grok 4 7
Legal and trust backdrop
Non-coding xAI stories dominated the "xai" search results in September: a lawsuit alleging Grok was trained on CSAM (23 points, Aug 28) News – Item , a survivor suit over generated images (Sep 3) News – Item , and xAI moving to buy out Southaven, Mississippi residents near a power plant (17 points, Sep 25) News – Item . These do not affect API mechanics but compound the enterprise trust risk already raised by the unresolved July Grok Build exfiltration scandal.
Reddit search (old.reddit.com, query "grok 4", past month) was blocked by a login wall and could not be used this cycle.
Reddit recovery (added 2026-10-03)
No Grok coding threads in the month's top results (the query is dominated by memes), but the search surfaced r/GrokRefugees, a usage-limit backlash community at 2.7K weekly visitors, evidence that Grok subscription-limit frustration has its own Reddit home. Reddit – Grokrefugees
