All 3 rowsWhat it costs to get this score
Published API price against the public score. The x-axis uses a log scale; the dashed path marks models that are not beaten by a cheaper, higher-scoring option. Price uses average of published input and output rates.

Published price history
This chart appears only when at least two dated first-party price records exist for the exact model. It shows rate changes, not an inferred cost trend.
2 dated first-party price records. The newest record lists $0.5 per million tokens.
Lineage
The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. Each score is estimated for that model; a relative can inform a sparse estimate but never sets a floor, so a newer release can score below an earlier one. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

Grok 3 Mini is a proprietary model with a 128K context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.
3 of 768 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.
Last updated October 26, 2026. Runtime fields remain blank until a sourced snapshot exists.
Questions
How does Grok 3 Mini perform overall in AI benchmarks?
Grok 3 Mini ranks #128 out of 229 models on the public BenchAlign leaderboard, with a score of 44.28/100. Its evidence status is Estimated, and this profile shows 3 source-displayable benchmark rows. The label describes evidence depth, not a provider quality claim; inspect category rows before choosing a workload.
Is Grok 3 Mini good for knowledge and understanding?
Grok 3 Mini has source-displayable benchmark coverage for knowledge and understanding, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.
Is Grok 3 Mini good for coding and programming?
Grok 3 Mini has source-displayable benchmark coverage for coding and programming, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.
Is Grok 3 Mini good for mathematics?
Grok 3 Mini has source-displayable benchmark coverage for mathematics, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.
Does Grok 3 Mini have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?
No. Grok 3 Mini currently has 3 source-displayable rows. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.
What is the context window size of Grok 3 Mini?
Grok 3 Mini has a reported context window of 128K in the exact-model catalog record. The value stays visible, but the profile marks its source link as unavailable instead of presenting it as directly documented. Maximum output length remains separate because providers often publish a different limit.
