Pricing matrix
Shared sellers only. Each row is a host that lists both models. Dollar amounts are per 1M tokens. Lowest in each pair of columns is emphasized.

Best listed rates (this pair)
Same "best row in current pricing" logic as model pages: a compact view of the lowest input and output we show for each side. This is not the seller matrix.
Catalog map · OpenAI · Xai
Each chart uses real catalog rows that include both list input and list output ($/1M). Larger green dots are the models on this comparison page; accent dots are other active models from that provider.
OpenAI · input vs output
Scatter chart: X = input $/M, Y = output $/M. This page's models are labeled on the green dots; hover others for detail.
One dot per catalog row that has both list prices. Green dots are labeled with the models on this page; hover any dot for name and prices. Upper-right means higher cost on both axes ($/1M).
Xai · input vs output
One dot per catalog row that has both list prices. Green dots are labeled with the models on this page; hover any dot for name and prices. Upper-right means higher cost on both axes ($/1M).

When to pick which
Short takeaways: no cards, just the points. Validate with your own workloads.
Long-context tasks
Use GPT-5.2. Its 272K context window handles large codebases and documents better than 131K.
High-volume text generation
Use Grok 4 1 Fast Non Reasoning. Output tokens are 96% cheaper, which compounds significantly at scale.
Long output (reports, code files)
Use Grok 4 1 Fast Non Reasoning. Its 131K max output limit reduces the need to split requests.
