SpaceXAI launches Grok 4.5 for coding and agentic work

The story in five sentences

  1. SpaceXAI has introduced Grok 4.5 for coding, agentic tasks, and knowledge work.
  2. The company says the model was trained in collaboration with Cursor.
  3. The vendor reports an output speed of 80 tokens per second.
  4. API access costs two dollars per million input tokens and six dollars per million output tokens.
  5. Performance and efficiency comparisons come from SpaceXAI and have not been independently verified.

Full explanation

SpaceXAI introduced Grok 4.5 on July 16 for programming, science, engineering, mathematics, agentic tasks, and knowledge work. The company says the model was trained with Cursor. It is available through Grok Build, Cursor, and the provider’s console. The reported output rate of 80 tokens per second is a vendor claim.

The announcement does not show Grok 4.5 leading every cited benchmark. Other systems rank ahead on Grok DeepSWE, while SpaceXAI reports 29 percent on SWE Marathon. The company also contrasts 15,954 generated output tokens with 67,020 for Opus 4.8 in one comparison. That selection and its harness do not support a neutral ranking across models.

API pricing is two dollars per million input tokens and six dollars per million output tokens. The model is described as temporarily free, but no end date is stated. SpaceXAI promotes Grok 4.5 for office work in addition to coding and agentic uses. Claims about performance, speed, and token efficiency remain provider evaluations and have not been independently confirmed.

Privacy setting

May we measure pseudonymous page views and session replays?

With your consent, PostHog EU measures which pages are opened and additionally records your session: mouse movement, clicks, scrolling and the rendered page content are stored as a replayable reconstruction. Typed input is masked before sending. The contents of sign-in, sign-up, password recovery, the founder chat, the newsletter field, your email display, your quiz answers and the checklists are not recorded at all; on the sign-in and sign-up pages recording is paused. Addresses are always stored without query parameters. A random device identifier and technical connection data such as the IP address are processed as well. In addition, strictly defined usage events are measured: how far a post was read, which article element was used, which call to action was clicked, how a newsletter sign-up ended, how far you get in a course or in the feed (recording only whether a task was correct or incorrect, never your answer itself), which video you start, whether you switch the language, and how a sign-in or sign-up attempt ended — without the email address, without the password, and without the error message. Only values from a fixed list and whole numbers from fixed ranges are transmitted — no input and no free text. We also label production, internal, and automated test visits separately and derive whether a visit came from a known interface such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity from a known referring domain or a strictly allowed campaign value. The full referring address and query parameters are not sent, and this cannot identify a specific AI model. If PostHog's IP-based geo enrichment is enabled in the project, the service can derive an approximate country, continent, and region; we do not request browser or GPS location. Every visit is also assigned to a page area from a fixed list (for example home, blog, tools, account) — the area is sent, not the address. Page loading and stability metrics are measured as well (Core Web Vitals: LCP, CLS, INP, FCP), without network payloads. A click on a link leading away from the site is recorded only as the target domain from a fixed list, without path, query parameters, or link text. For the Idea Wheel, AI Labelling and Limit Reset tools only the kind of action is measured — spin, option changed, copy or export, for instance — never your input and never a result.
