Grok 4 vs Seed-2.0-Lite

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.

Grok 4 has the cleaner overall profile here, landing at 66 versus 63. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.

Grok 4's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 85.1 against 75. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is HMMT Feb 2023, 84 to 67. Seed-2.0-Lite does hit back in instruction following, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

Seed-2.0-Lite gives you the larger context window at 256K, compared with 128K for Grok 4.

Quick Verdict

Pick Grok 4 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Seed-2.0-Lite only becomes the better choice if instruction following is the priority or you need the larger 256K context window.
