04 — Questions

Which should you choose?

Which is better: Muse Spark 1.1 or Grok 4.7?

Muse Spark 1.1 is the better all-round choice, scoring 57/100 against Grok 4.7 (52). It leads on capability, price, inputs & features and context window. The score weighs capability 50%, price 25%, inputs & features 15%, context window 10%. Capability uses the average of shared benchmarks (SimpleQA Verified), because Grok 4.7 has no Capabilities Index score yet.

Which is cheaper, Muse Spark 1.1 or Grok 4.7?

Muse Spark 1.1 is cheaper at $1.25 input / $4.25 output per million tokens (official Meta API price). Grok 4.7 costs $2.00 input / $6.00 output per million tokens (official xAI API price). At a typical mix of three input tokens to one output token, that is $2.00 per million tokens for Muse Spark 1.1 versus $3.00 for Grok 4.7 (1.5× as much).

Which scores higher on benchmarks?

Not every model here has a Capabilities Index score, so we compare the average of shared benchmarks (SimpleQA Verified): Muse Spark 1.1 57.8% and Grok 4.7 56.0%. On individual benchmarks: SimpleQA Verified — Muse Spark 1.1 57.8%, Grok 4.7 56.0%.

Which is better for coding?

There are no published SWE-bench Verified results for Muse Spark 1.1 and Grok 4.7 yet, so there is no like-for-like coding score. On overall capability, Muse Spark 1.1 leads, which tends to carry over to coding, but test on your own codebase. Both support tool calling for agent workflows.

Which has the bigger context window?

Muse Spark 1.1 has the largest context window at 1,048,576 tokens, against 500,000 for Grok 4.7. Maximum output per response: Muse Spark 1.1 up to 131,072, Grok 4.7 up to 500,000 tokens.

Which can read images, PDFs, audio or video?

Muse Spark 1.1 accepts text, images, PDFs and video; Grok 4.7 accepts text, images and PDFs. Muse Spark 1.1 handles the widest range of inputs.

Are any of these open source?

No. Muse Spark 1.1 and Grok 4.7 are proprietary and only available through APIs and apps.

Which is newer?

Grok 4.7 is the newest, released Sep 21, 2026. Muse Spark 1.1 came out Jul 9, 2026. Knowledge cutoff: Grok 4.7 May 2026.

How do you decide the winner?

Each model gets a 0–100 score on capability (50%, independent benchmark results); price (25%, blended price per million tokens (3 input : 1 output), log scale); inputs & features (15%, image, PDF, audio and video input, tool calling, structured output and reasoning); context window (10%, maximum tokens per request, log scale). Dimensions missing for any model are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so every model is judged on the same evidence. Specs and prices come from public model listings and the labs’ own API pages; capability scores come from independent benchmark runs. Data updated Oct 4, 2026.
