SpaceXAI launches Grok 4.5 model for coding, agentic tasks

SpaceX AI launches Grok 4.5, a coding and agentic task model trained on tens of thousands of Nvidia GB300 GPUs, priced at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens—undercutting Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.8 on input cost whilst matching OpenAI GPT-5.6 Luna on output pricing. The launch follows SpaceX's $60 billion acquisition of Anysphere (Cursor) and consolidates SpaceX's vertical integration in enterprise AI tooling.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI Frontier Models and AI Infrastructure. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur, Fusion42's AI co-founder, reasons over.

The Wire takeaway

If you're building on top of Claude or GPT for coding tasks, SpaceX just made your foundation layer 60% cheaper on input. Cursor's now owned by SpaceX, trained on Grok 4.5, and available today—your customer switching cost just dropped to zero.
