What we can say today
No official page
xAI's models page now lists grok-4.7 (500k context, $2/$6), checked 2026-09-22.
Founder quote only
Musk (2026-07-28): a 2.1T model a few weeks after 4.6; better except slightly slower, more token-efficient.
Use this now
Grok 4.6 scored 61 on AA Intelligence, matching GPT-5.6 Sol, at $2/$6.
Rumor window
4.6 slipped past the ~Aug 7 hint. Community now guesses early September — not a date.
What people mean by Grok 4.7
The xAI catalog lists Grok 4.7 beside Grok 4.6 and calls 4.7 the flagship. Unlike 4.6 (a longer post-train on the 4.5 line), Musk framed 4.7 as a new 2.1T pre-train. Until a model card exists, treat size, speed, and price as quotes — not specs.
Why this query is hot
In late July 2026 the 4.6 and 4.7 teasers landed together, which pushed both names into search at the same time. With 4.6 shipped on 2026-08-12, the open questions are when 4.7 arrives and whether it will catch Fable 5. This page tracks the public evidence on exactly those two.
Public timeline
Musk, 2026-07-24: Grok 4.6 in ~2 weeks, Grok 4.7 in ~4 weeks.
Musk, 2026-07-28: 4.7 is the 2.1T model; better than 4.6 except slightly slower to serve, better token efficiency.
Grok 4.6 GA (later than the ~Aug 7 hint). Still no 4.7 card as of 2026-09-18 (the same capture does list grok-4-6 and the 4.20 family, so it is not a scraping miss). Since 2026-09-22 the official model catalog lists grok-4.7 (still no standalone model card or benchmark scores).
Confirmed vs rumor
Confirmed
Name Grok 4.7; in the 2026-09-22 pull of the official model directory it sits listed alongside 4.6; the founder's 2026-07-28 words — 2.1T / slightly slower / more token-efficient — are a description, not a spec sheet.
Rumour · specs listed, scores not
A release date is only the catalog page's own timestamp inside the 2026-09-22 pull, and there is no vs-Fable-5 score. Older threads guessing 3T–6T conflict with the later 2.1T quote. “3–4 more weeks plus SpaceX data” is community talk, not a product page. Context and price are listed, so they are no longer rumour.
What you can compare today
Grok 4.6 vs Fable 5 (real numbers)
Official 4.6 table: AA 61 vs 62, DeepSWE 65.9% vs 70%, CursorBench 69.9% vs 70.5%. Close, not a win.
Grok 4.7 vs Fable 5 (no official scores yet)
4.7 is listed, but xAI has published no eval scores; the comparison page only uses officially published numbers.
How to watch the launch
Watch x.ai/news — not screenshot threads. When 4.7 ships, the model id and price will appear on vendor /models lists. Until then, route coding agents to Grok 4.6, Claude Opus 5 / Fable 5, or GPT-5.6 Sol.
On QCode
Grok 4.7 is callable on xAI's own API (checked 2026-09-22). Our price catalogue lists seven Grok ids (4.3 / 4.5 / 4.6 / the 4.20 family and grok-build-0.1), all with zero billed calls in the last 30 days, and we make no availability promise for the Grok line. Frontier options currently on /models include gpt-6-astra, claude-opus-5, gpt-5.6-sol, deepseek-v4-pro and kimi-k3.
Grok 4.7 FAQ
Is Grok 4.7 released?
No. As of 2026-09-11 there is still no xAI launch post, API id, or pricing page. Musk on 2026-09-02 said “10 days,” which points near 2026-09-12 — a founder window, not a model card.
When will Grok 4.7 come out?
No xAI calendar. The latest public window is Musk’s 2026-09-02 “10 days” (around 2026-09-12). The earlier “few weeks after 4.6” already slipped. Treat any calendar as soft; x.ai/news wins.
Is Grok 4.7 2.1 trillion parameters?
That number is a founder post, not a model card. Repeat it as a quote until xAI publishes specs.
Is Grok 4.7 better than Claude Fable 5?
Unknown. There are zero public 4.7 benchmarks. The closest live matchup is Grok 4.6 vs Fable 5 Max.
Should I wait for 4.7 or start with 4.6?
If you have work to ship now, there is little reason to wait. Grok 4.6 already sits in the frontier-adjacent band at $2/$6, scoring 61 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index — level with GPT-5.6 Sol.
Will QCode add Grok 4.7 on day one?
If the vendor API is available and passes reliability checks, it can appear on /models. No promise before that.

One key for the models that are actually live — Grok 4.6, Claude, and GPT-5.6 — while 4.7 is live on xAI's own API (checked 2026-09-22) — we make no availability promise for it.
