Grok 4.7 vs Hy4
Grok 4.7 leads Hy4 on coding, 66.7 to 65.2 on the Vibe Coding Index, and Hy4 costs 4.8x less per output token ($1.2505 vs $6.00 per million). Updated November 5, 2026; 6 benchmarks have a result for both.
Grok 4.7 or Hy4: which to pick
Grok 4.7 and Hy4 are level for coding, 66.7 against 65.2 on the Vibe Coding Index, so price and context decide.
Pick Hy4 for output tokens 4.8x cheaper ($1.2505 vs $6.00 per million) and a larger context window (1.05M against 500K tokens). Pick Grok 4.7 for work measured by Vibe Code Bench (Vals AI) or Legal Research Bench (Vals AI), where it leads.

What each workload costs
Three fixed token mixes at each model's listed price, so per-token rates become a bill.

Questions
Is Grok 4.7 better than Hy4 for coding?
Grok 4.7 and Hy4 are level for coding, 66.7 against 65.2 on the Vibe Coding Index, so price and context decide. Pick Hy4 for output tokens 4.8x cheaper ($1.2505 vs $6.00 per million) and a larger context window (1.05M against 500K tokens). Pick Grok 4.7 for work measured by Vibe Code Bench (Vals AI) or Legal Research Bench (Vals AI), where it leads.
Which is cheaper, Grok 4.7 or Hy4?
Grok 4.7 costs $2.00 per million input tokens and $6.00 per million output tokens; Hy4 costs $0.417 and $1.2505. Cost per solved task is known for neither of them.
Which has the bigger context window, Grok 4.7 or Hy4?
Hy4, with 1.05M tokens against 500K.
How many benchmarks is the Grok 4.7 vs Hy4 comparison based on?
6 benchmarks have a result for both models as of November 5, 2026. Grok 4.7's coding index rests on 5 independent benchmarks and Hy4's on 2. Where only one model has a result, the page says so instead of naming a winner.
