Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.
Grok 4.1 is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 84 to 30. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
Grok 4.1's sharpest advantage is in coding, where it averages 73.4 against 7.2. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is HumanEval, 91 to 14.
Grok 4.1 is also the more expensive model on tokens at $3.00 input / $15.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for LFM2.5-1.2B-Instruct. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. Grok 4.1 gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 32K for LFM2.5-1.2B-Instruct.
Pick Grok 4.1 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. LFM2.5-1.2B-Instruct only becomes the better choice if you want the cheaper token bill.
