Grok 3 Mini

by xAI

Grok 3 Mini is a smaller thinking model that verbalizes its reasoning before responding, making its internal thought process inspectable. It exposes reasoning tokens so you can follow how it arrived at an answer, which helps with debugging and trust in agentic workflows. It is suited to logic-based tasks, math, and structured problem solving where deep domain knowledge is not required. The model supports adjustable reasoning effort with low and high settings, structured outputs, and tool calling, making it a fit for applications that balance cost and reasoning quality on lighter workloads. With a 131k token context window and a May 2025 release, Grok 3 Mini offers a fast, compact alternative to larger reasoning models while keeping the transparent thinking that characterizes xAI's reasoning approach.
