SpaceXAI released Grok 4.7 on September 21, priced at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output. It scores 71% on DeepSWE v1.1 and 46.3% on CursorBench 4.0, and is positioned for long-running coding and knowledge work with a 500K context window.
Why it matters
Aggressive pricing at frontier coding performance puts direct pressure on OpenAI and Anthropic API margins. Third consecutive generation held at the same $2/$6 rate while improving agentic and multi-hour task scores.
SpaceXAI launched Grok 4.7 on September 21 as its most capable model for coding and knowledge work. Pricing starts at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens (doubling above 200K input tokens), matching Grok 4.6 while the company claims roughly 2× speed versus comparable frontier models.
Published scores at the xHigh tier include 71.0% on DeepSWE v1.1, 46.3% on CursorBench 4.0, 64.0% on EEBench, 38.0% on Terminal-Bench 4.0, and 19.6% on the Harvey Legal Agent Benchmark. The model carries a 500K-token context window and four reasoning tiers. It is available immediately via the Grok API, Cursor, Grok Build, and third-party routers.
The release continues xAI’s strategy of holding API price while expanding capability, putting clear cost pressure on higher-priced coding models from OpenAI and Anthropic.
