Positioned as an 'Opus-class' competitor, it targets coding, legal, and financial work. Priced at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens, it undercuts Anthropic's Opus 4.8 significantly. The model is live in Grok Build and Cursor on all plans, with a wider public release due Thursday. It does not yet beat the largest frontier models but claims wins on speed, price, and several benchmarks. The launch coincides with OpenAI's broad GPT-5.6 rollout, intensifying competition in the AI model market. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
