Gemini 1.5 Pro vs Grok 4

1. Breakthrough long-context window up to 1,000,000 tokens

• Can process 1 hour of video, 11 hours of audio, 700k+ words, or 100k+ lines of code in a single prompt.
• Supports advanced retrieval, reasoning, summarization, and cross-document tasks.
• Achieves 99% retrieval accuracy on 1M-token Needle-In-A-Haystack tests.

2. Strong multimodal reasoning across video, audio, images, and text

• Can analyze long videos (e.g., full silent films), track events, infer causality, and identify small details.
• Handles large complex documents like manuals, transcripts, and books.

3. High-performance reasoning and problem solving

• Comparable to Gemini 1.0 Ultra across many benchmarks.
• Excels at code reasoning, multi-step explanations, and large-scale codebase analysis.

4. Advanced code understanding and generation

• Performs problem-solving on codebases exceeding 100,000 lines.
• Capable of cross-file reasoning, debugging guidance, API comprehension, and generating structured code improvements.

5. Efficient Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture

• Activates only relevant expert pathways per input.
• Enables faster training, lower latency, and more efficient serving.
• Dramatically improves scalability and inference speed.

6. Exceptional in-context learning capabilities

• Learns new tasks directly from long prompts without fine-tuning.
• Demonstrated by learning to translate a low-resource language (Kalamang) from a grammar manual.

7. High-fidelity multimodal understanding

• Reads, analyzes, and reasons about long PDFs, code repositories, images, and videos together.
• Enables new classes of applications: legal analysis, scientific review, codebase audits, long-form content generation, etc.

8. Safety and reliability first

• Undergoes extensive ethics, safety testing, and red-teaming.
• Improved representational safety and reduced hallucinations compared to previous generations.

9. Available for developers and enterprises

• Accessible via AI Studio and Vertex AI.
• Supports future pricing tiers for expanded context windows.
• Designed for real enterprise-scale workloads.

10. Widely capable mid-size model

• Positioned between Gemini Pro and Gemini Ultra generations.
• Well-balanced: reasoning, multimodality, long-context, and speed.

1. Flagship-level reasoning and math performance

• Designed for world-class reasoning depth, precision, and multi-step logical chains.
• Excels at STEM, mathematics, symbolic operations, proofs, and analytical workloads.

2. Powerful multimodal understanding

• Supports text, images, and other modalities.
• Handles cross-modal reasoning tasks requiring context synthesis.

3. Extreme capability across diverse tasks

• Positioned as a top-tier 'jack of all trades' model.
• Strong in natural language, coding, knowledge retrieval, and structured generation.

4. Large 256K context window

• Enables analysis of long documents, entire codebases, multi-document packs, and extensive agent sessions.
• Supports workloads that require persistent reasoning across large inputs.

5. Advanced developer tooling support

• Function calling for tool-augmented workflows.
• Structured outputs for predictable, schema-controlled generation.
• Integrates smoothly with agents and complex automation pipelines.

6. Efficient caching for cost reduction

• Cached input tokens discounted to $0.75 / 1M tokens.
• Encourages RAG, retrieval pipelines, and multi-step conversational workflows.

7. Production-ready performance

• Stable rate limits: 480 requests per minute.
• High token throughput: 2,000,000 tokens per minute.
• Available across multiple xAI regional clusters.

8. Optional Live Search augmentation

• Add-on: $25 per 1K sources.
• Enhances factual accuracy and real-time information retrieval.
