SpaceXAI’s Grok 4.5 scores 54 to place fourth on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index following only Fable 5, GPT-5.5, and Opus 4.8. It scores on par with GPT-5.5 in Codex on the Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index in the Grok Build harness, at much lower cost Grok 4.5 improves 16 points over Grok 4.3 on the Intelligence Index, bringing SpaceXAI to the intelligence frontier behind only OpenAI and Anthropic, and outperforming all open weights models and notably Google’s Gemini models. Key standout areas of performance are agentic knowledge work and coding. Grok 4.5 in Grok Build scores 76 on the Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index, on par with GPT-5.5 (xhigh) in Codex and just below Fable 5 (max) in Claude Code, and at a small fraction of the token usage and price. Congratulations to @SpaceXAI, @cursor_ai, and @elonmusk on the impressive release! Key Takeaways: ➤ Grok 4.5 performs very strongly on agentic tasks. Grok 4.5 ranks #4 on GDPval-AA v2 with an Elo of 1543, between Claude Opus 4.8 (1600) and GLM-5.2 (1513). It achieves the top score on 𝜏³-Banking of 33%, above 31% from GPT-5.5 (xhigh), and sits on the cost vs performance Pareto frontier across all three agentic evaluations in the Intelligence Index ➤ Grok 4.5 is one of the most cost efficient models to run for near-frontier intelligence. It costs $0.31 per task on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index and $2.59 per task on the Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index within Grok Build ➤ Low cost for Grok 4.5 is driven by both low pricing and token efficiency. Grok 4.5 has a headline price over 60% lower than Claude Opus 4.8 and GPT-5.5, and used ~14k output tokens per Intelligence Index Task - over 60% lower than Opus 4.8. On the Coding Agent Index, Grok 4.5 stands out on the Pareto frontier of Coding Agent Index score vs. Total Tokens, using only 1.9M tokens for the Coding Agent Index while scoring 76 ➤ As a coding agent, Grok 4.5 in Grok Build is on par with GPT-5.5 and offers efficiency benefits: In our Artificial Intelligence Coding Agent Index that consists of DeepSWE, Terminal-Bench v2, and SWE-Atlas QnA, Grok 4.5 in Grok Build ranks third, on par with GPT-5.5 (Codex) and below Fable 5 (Claude Code). It is also very efficient in achieving this result: Grok 4.5 in Grok Build cost $2.49 per task while Fable 5 in Claude Code cost $11.80 and GPT-5.5 in Codex $5.07. This is driven by relatively low token pricing and the model using far fewer tokens than comparable models (1.9M average tokens used per task), significantly less than Fable 5 in Claude Code (7.2M) and GPT-5.5 in Codex (6.2M) Other model details: ➤ Context window of 500k tokens - a reduction from Grok 4.3’s 1M token context, but retaining configurable reasoning and vision input ➤ Pricing of $2/$6 per 1M tokens of input/output; cache hits are discounted by 75% to $0.5 per 1M tokens, and costs still double with long (>200k token) inputs ➤ As Elon Musk has disclosed, Grok 4.5 is 3x larger than its predecessor at 1.5T parameters



SpaceXAI's Grok 4.5 takes the #1 spot on AutomationBench-AA with a score of 51%, ahead of Claude Fable 5 (49%) and Claude Opus 4.8 (48%) at roughly a quarter of their cost per task - the first model to complete more than half of workflow objectives without breaking any business rules AutomationBench-AA, our independent leaderboard for @zapier’s AutomationBench, tests whether AI agents can automate real SaaS workflows while adhering to business rules. The test set is private to prevent contamination. Models complete 657 tasks across 40 simulated app environments including Gmail, Google Sheets, Slack, Salesforce, and HubSpot, and the headline score is the share of objectives completed without violating any guardrails. Key takeaways: ➤ Grok 4.5 completes more objectives than any other model: It completes 79.9% of task objectives and strictly passes 21.9% of tasks. This is the highest we’ve measured on both outcomes, exceeding Claude Fable 5’s 73.3% objective completion and Claude Opus 4.8’s 19.3% of fully-completed tasks ➤ Grok 4.5 pushes out the Pareto frontier of score vs. cost per task: At $0.34 per task, it is both cheaper and higher-scoring than every other leading model - Claude Fable 5 ($1.35 per task), Claude Opus 4.8 ($1.46), GPT-5.5 (xhigh, $1.28), and Gemini 3.5 Flash (high, $0.49) ➤ It is extremely token-efficient: Grok 4.5 uses ~8k output tokens per task, the fewest of any leading model - less than a quarter of Claude Opus 4.8 (32k) and a third of Gemini 3.5 Flash (24k). Its total token usage of 0.44M per task is among the lowest on the leaderboard. Low cost is driven by this efficiency as well as low token pricing ➤ Grok 4.5 uses fewer turns with many parallel tool use: Grok 4.5 resolves tasks in ~16 turns, fewer than GPT-5.5 (xhigh, 25) and less than half of Gemini 3.5 Flash (high, 35), while making the most tool calls per task of any leading model (52.5). It batches 3.3 tool calls per turn, compared to ~2.5 for Claude Opus 4.8 and ~2.0 for GPT-5.5 (xhigh) ➤ Guardrails still get broken: Grok 4.5 triggers 0.63 violations per task, above Claude Opus 4.8 (0.55) and Gemini 3.5 Flash (0.46). At 13.0 objectives completed per violation, it trails Gemini 3.5 Flash (15.0) and Claude Opus 4.8 (13.5) ➤ Its strongest lead is in the hardest domain: Grok 4.5 completes 71% of Finance objectives, the domain with the lowest average score, ahead of Claude Fable 5 (64%) and Claude Opus 4.8 (62%) Congratulations to @SpaceXAI and @elonmusk on topping the leaderboard!



Grok 4.5 is the top non-Anthropic model on AA-Briefcase, combining frontier agentic knowledge work capabilities with leading cost and time-efficiency Yesterday @SpaceXAI released Grok 4.5, a new frontier-level model with strengths in agentic coding and knowledge work. On AA-Briefcase, Grok 4.5 scores 1328, a +578 improvement over Grok 4.3 and the highest score of any non-Anthropic model (note that GPT-5.6 not released yet). It achieves this while sitting on the cost and time efficiency frontier, averaging $1.12 per task, 86% lower than Claude Opus 4.8 (max), and 12.4 minutes per task, around half the time of Opus 4.8 (max). AA-Briefcase is our new proprietary benchmark for agentic knowledge work, testing models on a fully private dataset of realistic tasks across thousands of complex input files. Tasks require deliverables like spreadsheets, presentations, and UI mock-ups, with performance combined into a single AA-Briefcase Elo across correctness, analytical quality, and presentation quality. Key results for Grok 4.5 with high reasoning on AA-Briefcase: ➤ Frontier agentic knowledge work capabilities: Grok 4.5 achieves an AA-Briefcase Elo of 1328, the highest score of any non-Anthropic model, behind only Claude Fable 5 (1390), Claude Sonnet 5 (max, 1390), and Claude Opus 4.8 (max, 1354). Across the three AA-Briefcase scoring axes, Grok 4.5 is strongest on objective rubric criteria and analytical quality, with comparatively weaker presentation quality. It achieves the second-highest overall rubric pass rate (40.7%), behind Claude Fable 5 (56%) and Claude Sonnet 5 (42.3%) ➤ Leading cost efficiency: Grok 4.5 averages a cost of $1.12 per AA-Briefcase task, placing it on the cost-performance Pareto frontier. This is much most cost effective than peer models such as Claude Opus 4.8 (max, $8.26) and GLM 5.2 (max, $1.71) ➤ Faster task completion: Grok 4.5 averages 12.4 minutes per AA-Briefcase task, also placing it on the speed-performance frontier. It is much faster than Claude Opus 4.8 (max, 23.9 min) and Claude Sonnet 5 (max, 36.9 min), primarily due to lower turn use. Grok 4.5 averages just 23 turns per task, ~40% of GLM 5.2 (max, 56) and ~13% of Claude Sonnet 5 (max, 183) Congratulations to @SpaceXAI, @cursor_ai, and @elonmusk on the impressive release!
