Compare Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning)
Frequently Asked Questions about Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning)
How much does the Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) API cost per 1M tokens?+
Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) by xAI is priced at $3 per 1M input tokens and $15 per 1M output tokens. With prompt caching enabled, cached input tokens cost $0.75 per 1M tokens, and asynchronous Batch API requests receive a 50% discount.
Should I use a $30/month subscription or the Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) pay-as-you-go API?+
A flat $30/month consumer subscription is predictable for daily interactive chat and manual coding. However, if you are building software, running automated workflows, or sending low-to-moderate volume with prompt caching enabled, the pay-as-you-go API is typically far more cost-effective and offers higher rate limits without manual UI caps.
How many words and pages fit in Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning)'s context window?+
Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) features a 1M tokens context window, which equals approximately 750,000 English words or ~2,000 standard single-spaced pages in a single prompt. Its maximum output generation per turn is 65,536 tokens.
Can I run Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) locally on my own GPU (Open Weights)?+
No, Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) is a proprietary closed-weights model hosted by xAI. It cannot be downloaded for local GPU execution and must be accessed via xAI's official API or cloud platform.
Does xAI train on data sent to the Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) API, and is commercial use allowed?+
API payloads are excluded from model training by default. License tier: Proprietary Commercial API (xAI Terms). Full commercial ownership of generated outputs. Supported deployment channels include: xAI Cloud API & Enterprise Endpoints.
How does Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) perform on coding and reasoning benchmarks?+
Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) achieves a composite Intelligence Index of 62/100, scoring 61.5% on SWE-bench Verified, 65.4% on GPQA Diamond, 81.2% on MMLU-Pro, and 1360 pts on Chatbot Arena Elo.
What is Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) best used for?+
Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning) is best suited for: rapide agentic outil pipelines, en temps réel interactif chat, et élevé-débit document extraction. Assessment: le rapide, direct bourreau de travail du Grok 4.20 family tailored pour latence-sensitive agentic tâches.

AI Glossary & Architecture Concepts
View full glossary →Key machine learning concepts and benchmarks relevant to Grok 4.20 (Non-Reasoning):
L'unité textuelle de base traitée par un modèle linguistique, représentant généralement 3 à 4 caractères ou environ 0,75 mot. Par exemple, une phrase courante est découpée en plusieurs jetons.
Une suite de tests standardisés permettant d'évaluer et de comparer objectivement les performances des modèles d'IA sur des tâches ciblées (code avec SWE-bench, mathématiques avec AIME, etc.).
Le nombre maximal de jetons qu'un modèle peut traiter simultanément (entrée et sortie comprises). Une fenêtre de 1 000 000 jetons permet d'analyser environ 750 000 mots en une seule requête.
La capacité d'un LLM à déterminer quand une action externe est requise et à générer des arguments structurés pour invoquer des API, calculatrices ou bases de données avant de poursuivre.
Un standard ouvert créé par Anthropic permettant aux agents d'IA de se connecter de façon uniforme aux systèmes de fichiers locaux, aux environnements de développement et aux API tierces.
Une optimisation tarifaire et technique conservant les états d'attention des préfixes de prompts récurrents, réduisant les coûts d'entrée de 50 à 90 % tout en abaissant la latence.
Les scores de benchmarks, tarifs par token et limites évoluent rapidement. Vérifiez toujours les spécifications actuelles sur la documentation officielle du fournisseur.
