Published rates rank differently once prompt caching, batch discounts and your own input-to-output ratio are applied. Run both against your numbers.
Grok 4.7 vs GPT-6.1 Sol
The same $2 input price; Grok 4.7 output costs 40% less, but it has no batch discount.
Monthly cost by workload shape
The same volume costs very different amounts depending on the shape of the traffic. No caching or batch applied.

Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper, Grok 4.7 or GPT-6.1 Sol?
At a typical 3:1 input-to-output ratio, Grok 4.7 is cheaper: $3.00 blended per 1M tokens against $4.00. That flips once output exceeds 0% of your total tokens, because the two price input and output differently.
What is the price difference between Grok 4.7 and GPT-6.1 Sol?
Grok 4.7: $2.00 input, $6.00 output per 1M tokens. GPT-6.1 Sol: $2.00 input, $10.00 output. That is 1.0x on input and 1.7x on output.
Does prompt caching change the answer?
Grok 4.7 caches input at $0.500/1M and GPT-6.1 Sol caches at $0.100/1M. For input-heavy workloads with repeated context, caching can matter more than the base rate difference, model both in the calculator rather than comparing rate cards.
This page compares published prices only. It makes no claim about which model performs better on any task; that depends entirely on your evaluations.
Rate cards decide nothing on their own.
Most teams run several models at once. Finitizer Tokenomics shows what each one actually costs you, read from your own bills and exports, which workloads could test a smaller model, what they would cost on an open-weight model, and, for models you serve yourself, the cost per token beside the API price. A routing decision starts from your spend rather than a price page.
