Grok 4.5 Unveiled: Affordable AI with Cursor Integration

Grok 4.5 dropped on July 8, 2026, and the numbers deserve a real look before anyone skips past them. $2 per million input tokens, $6 per million output tokens, immediately available in Cursor across every subscription tier, in SpaceXAI's developer CLI called Grok Build, and through the SpaceXAI API console. Elon Musk called it an "Opus-class model" that is faster, more token-efficient, and cheaper than Anthropic's flagship. For a developer wiring a model into an editor or an agent loop, that is a real tailwind — say it before the "but."

The release lands on one of the busiest weeks for AI in 2026.
