Grok 4.7 tokens cost 5x less for input and 8.33x less for output than GPT-6 Astra. Grok 4.7: $2 input / $6 output. GPT-6 Astra: $10 input / $50 output. Yet Astra still comes out cheaper per task on Artificial Analysis: Grok 4.7: $3.74 GPT-6 Astra: $3.26 That’s how much token efficiency matters.

I wish to observe same cost efficiency from Astra in my Codex sub :)

should this even be something to be compared? Grok is no where close to Astra

Didn't you say weeks ago that benchmarks information aren't trustworthy??

you shouldnt even use Astra Max lmao. Xhigh shits on Grok 4.7 so hard at even cheaper

You are comparing two totally wrong models..grok is not compatible to Astra at all. You can compare with luna or sol

@elonmusk fix please! grok 4.5 was not the smartest but it was incredibly fast and efficient, bring priorities back on track to that

Yes assume 4.8 or 4.9 will fix this. @elonmusk

No compare Grok 4.7 to newly release MiMo 2.6 pro 😅

Cheaper tokens are not the same as a cheaper task.Astra can cost more per million tokens and still win on the bill if it thinks less to get there. Token price is the menu. Token efficiency is the check.

I wonder what tasks does it include?.. how much reasoning is needed..

Grok 4.6 is more than 2x cheaper and almost as efficient. Why use this model?

The output multiplier is the one that shows up on the invoice.

Astra at $3.26 per task versus Grok 4.7 at $3.74 despite 5x lower input and 8x lower output rates means Grok 4.7 consumes roughly 4-5x more tokens per task, the rate advantage is fully offset by volume

Token efficiency is such a massive part of the equation for real-world deployment. We actually went deeper on the Grok 4.7 release here:
Grok 4.7 just landed, and it's a notable step up from Grok 4.6 at the same price and speed. The model reportedly works longer on difficult tasks, checks its own work more carefully, and ships with xAI's strongest safeguards to date. Independent benchmark firm Artificial Analysis scored Grok 4.7 at 46 on its intelligence index, up two points from Grok 4.6, putting xAI at the top among AI labs. Grok 4.7 also overtook GPT 5.6 solo on the coding agent index, landing third for agentic coding behind Anthropic and OpenAI, while running faster and cheaper than both. The model is built to pair with xAI's coding harness and is also available in Cursor, which xAI recently acquired. Nvidia says its accelerated computing supported the training. Early reactions online are split, with some praising the results and others calling the outputs weak for the cost.
