| Summary | Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image served from Google Vertex AI. Billed per image at US$0.0336. Call it through /v1/chat/completions with stream set to false; the image is returned in the message content as a base64 data URI. Maximum output resolution is 1K. A request for a larger size returns a 1K image with the same aspect ratio at the same price. When a size is reduced, the response carries an X-Image-Resolution-Capped header with the requested and delivered size. | Grok 4.6 is SpaceXAI's smartest frontier model, delivering top-tier performance across coding, knowledge work, and STEM reasoning. It is designed for demanding technical and professional workloads that require strong problem solving, accurate instruction following, and reliable execution. Optimized for software engineering, scientific analysis, and complex knowledge tasks, Grok 4.6 is well suited for advanced coding, research, and agentic workflows where high capability and reasoning quality are critical. | Claude Sonnet 5.5 is Anthropic's Sonnet-class model for well-scoped everyday work, serving as a direct upgrade to Sonnet 5. It excels at feature development, bug fixing, and creating polished documents, presentations, and spreadsheets, while offering clearer writing and communication than its predecessor. |
