Grok 4.5 is real, but you can’t use it yet. Elon Musk confirmed on June 28, 2026 that xAI’s newest model is already running in private beta with teams at SpaceX and Tesla, built on a fresh V9 foundation with roughly 1.5 trillion parameters. What he didn’t give is the one thing everyone wants: a […]

Update, July 2, 2026: Refreshed pricing, rollout status, and benchmarks for July, including Claude Opus 4.8 in the comparison. Grok 4.3 has now reached standard SuperGrok and X Premium+ seats, not just the $300 Heavy tier. For the deep dive, read our Grok 4.3 review. ChatGPT now runs on GPT-5.5, launched on April 23, 2026, […]

Grok Imagine generated 1.245 billion videos in the 30 days leading up to its 1.0 release in early February 2026. That release bumped the model to 720p, 10-second clips, and dramatically better native audio. With OpenAI’s Sora 2 winding down by September 24, 2026, Grok Imagine now sits next to Google Veo 3.1 and Kling […]

Grok Imagine is the fastest AI video generator most people can actually use right now. It takes a text prompt, a voice command, or a still photo and turns it into a short video with synchronized audio in roughly 17 seconds. That’s faster than Sora 2 or Veo 3.1 by a wide margin. xAI launched […]

xAI just rolled Grok 4.3 out to the full API on April 30, 2026, two weeks after a $300/month beta locked behind SuperGrok Heavy. The bigger story is the price reset. Grok 4.3 now runs at $1.25 per million input tokens and $2.50 per million output tokens, an input cut of roughly 40% and an […]

xAI now sells Grok across six consumer tiers plus a separate developer API, and the price spread between them is huge. The free tier costs $0, X Premium is $8 per month, SuperGrok Lite is $10 per month, SuperGrok is $30 per month, X Premium+ is $40 per month, and SuperGrok Heavy sits at the […]

Update, June 10, 2026: The Grok 5 picture sharpened in late May and June. xAI shipped Grok Voice (June 4), pushed Grok Imagine Video 1.5 to the top of the image-to-video leaderboard, and Elon Musk confirmed that a new 1.5-trillion-parameter coding model, Grok V9-Medium, finished training. None of that is Grok 5 itself, and the […]

Grok is a generative AI chatbot developed by xAI, Elon Musk‘s AI research company.
