Quick answer: Grok-1.5 (released March 28, 2024) was xAI's second major model, significantly improving on Grok-1's reasoning and coding capabilities with a 128K-token context window. It was the first Grok model with real-time access to X (Twitter) data, scoring 50.6% on MATH and 90.0% on HumanEval at launch.
Where Grok-1.5 leads
Where it lags
Best for: X-native applications requiring real-time social context, legacy integrations, and teams that pinned to this version.
Grok-1.5 was released on March 28, 2024, marking xAI's first significant capability leap since the initial Grok-1. The model was built with xAI's custom training infrastructure and showed particularly strong improvements in reasoning and math relative to Grok-1. It introduced the 128K context window and was made available to X Premium subscribers before a wider API rollout.
xAI's unique positioning in the LLM market is real-time access to X (Twitter) data — Grok-1.5 could reference recent posts, trending discussions, and public figures' statements in ways that knowledge-cutoff models could not. This remains the defining differentiator of the Grok line.
