1. Best-in-class coding performance

• #1 on SWE-bench Verified (77.2% standard, 82.0% high-compute).
• Excels at debugging, architecture, and multi-file code generation.
• Maintains coherence for extremely long tasks (30+ hours).

2. State-of-the-art computer use & agents

• Leads OSWorld at 61.4%.
• Strongest model for agentic workflows, multi-step tool use, and real computer control.
• Powering Claude Code, the new Claude Agent SDK, and Chrome agent actions.

3. Advanced reasoning & math

• Large improvements across reasoning-heavy benchmarks (AIME, MMMLU, τ2-bench, Terminal-Bench).
• Deep multi-step reasoning with extended or interleaved thinking.

4. High alignment & safety

• Most aligned Claude model to date with reduced deception, hallucinations, sycophancy, and harmful compliance.
• Strong protections against prompt injection for agentic tasks (ASL-3 safeguards).

5. Domain-expert performance

• Notable gains in finance, law, medicine, and STEM tasks.
• Trusted by early customers for long-context legal analysis, multi-file engineering, security research, and red-teaming.

1. Lightweight but thoughtful reasoning

• Designed to 'think before responding' with accessible raw thought traces.
• Excellent for logic puzzles, lightweight reasoning, and systematic tasks.

2. Extremely cost-efficient

• Only $0.30 per 1M input tokens and $0.50 per 1M output tokens.
• Cached token support lowers cost to $0.075 per 1M tokens.

3. Fast and responsive

• Optimized for low-latency applications and high-throughput use cases.
• Suitable for chatbots, assistants, and automation flows.

4. Supports modern developer features

• Function calling for tool-augmented workflows.
• Structured outputs for schema-controlled responses.
• Integrates cleanly with agents and pipelines.

5. Large 131K context window

• Can understand and work with long documents, transcripts, or multi-turn sessions.

6. Great for non-domain-heavy tasks

• Useful for summarization, rewriting, extraction, everyday reasoning, and app logic.
• Does not require domain expertise to operate effectively.

7. Compatible with enterprise infrastructure

• Stable rate limits: 480 requests per minute.
• Same API structure as all Grok 3 models.

8. Optional Live Search support

• $25 per 1K sources for real-time search augmentation.
