Grok 4.3

by xAI

Released 13 days after Grok TTS · All xAI releases

Grok 4.3 is xAI's reasoning flagship released April 2026, unifying reasoning, vision, and tool use into a single production model across a 1 million token context window. Reasoning is on by default for every request, with configurable effort levels so you can dial in the reasoning depth appropriate for each task. Native vision input enables multimodal analysis across text and images, while agentic support includes tool calling, structured outputs, and web search. The model targets reasoning-heavy workloads such as mathematical problem solving, code analysis, multi-step planning, and tasks where structured thinking improves answer quality. With an April 2026 release and a December 2025 knowledge cutoff, Grok 4.3 is xAI's answer to production-scale reasoning, balancing accuracy, latency, and the long context that modern agentic systems demand.
