GROK TOKEN COUNTER

Grok Token Counter

Estimate tokens and API cost for xAI Grok models. xAI does not publish the Grok tokenizer, so counts are labeled estimates, paired with current official per-million-token pricing and context windows up to 1 million tokens.

How Grok tokenization works

The Grok tokenizer is not public; estimates here follow the common 4-characters-per-token English baseline with adjustments for code and symbols.

Grok 4.3 supports a context window around 1 million tokens; Grok 4.5 supports 500,000 tokens; Grok Code Fast 1 and Grok Build 0.1 support 256,000 tokens.

The xAI API reports exact token usage per request, which you can use to validate these planning estimates.
