Grok 4.7 (Low) vs Claude Opus 5.5 (Max, Default Fallback)

What the captured data shows

Grok 4.7 Low has lower listed input and output rates than Claude Opus 5.5, and its reported first-token delay is shorter. Opus has the higher intelligence index and higher reported output throughput. That mixed timing picture makes it useful to examine the whole request rather than choose one headline speed measure.

Which model fits your workflow

Compare a short interaction and a longer task separately. Record time to the first useful information as well as completion time, and check the final result against the same requirements. The named Low and Opus fallback configurations should accompany any result you share.

Decision takeaway

The dataset shows a lower-cost Grok configuration and a higher-index Opus entry, with different first-token and throughput behavior.
