Output tokens cost $10.00 per million on GPT-5-Codex and $6.00 per million on Grok 4.5. Input tokens cost $1.25 per million on GPT-5-Codex and $2.00 per million on Grok 4.5. Cached input tokens are billed at $0.13 per million on GPT-5-Codex and $0.50 per million on Grok 4.5. Context lengths are 400,000 tokens on GPT-5-Codex and 500,000 tokens on Grok 4.5. Time to first token (TTFT) measured on AIHubMix is 7.5s on GPT-5-Codex and 1.9s on Grok 4.5. Measured output throughput is 27.2 tok/s on GPT-5-Codex and 26.7 tok/s on Grok 4.5.
GPT-5-Codex
Grok 4.5GPT-5-Codex is a version of GPT-5 optimized for autonomous coding tasks in Codex or similar environments. It is only available in the Responses API, and the underlying model snapshots will be updated regularly. https://docs.aihubmix.com/en/api/Responses-API You can also use it in codex-cll; see https://docs.aihubmix.com/en/api/Codex-CLI for using codex-cll through Aihubmix.
Grok 4.5 was trained on datasets spanning knowledge in coding, science, engineering, and math. With both intelligent and efficient reasoning, Grok 4.5 excels at real engineering tasks and exceeds comparable leading models at these tasks.
Prices are per million tokens. Time to First Token and throughput are rolling averages measured on AIHubMix.
Promotional prices show the discounted rate; see each model page for promotion windows.
Daily traffic served through AIHubMix — how demand for each model is trending.
Measured on real AIHubMix traffic, hourly buckets. Gaps mean no traffic in that hour.
Estimate your monthly bill for the same workload on each model.
Monthly = daily × 30. Discounted rates applied where a promotion is active.
Grok 4.5: $6.00/M output tokens; GPT-5-Codex: $10.00/M. Use the cost calculator above to estimate your own workload.
Grok 4.5: 1.9s time to first token measured on AIHubMix; see the live performance charts above for how each model behaves across the day.
GPT-5-Codex accepts 400,000 and Grok 4.5 accepts 500,000 input tokens. Maximum output per request is 128,000 tokens on GPT-5-Codex and 500,000 tokens on Grok 4.5.
GPT-5-Codex at 27.2 tok/s and Grok 4.5 at 26.7 tok/s, measured as output throughput on AIHubMix — a separate metric from time to first token.
GPT-5-Codex accepts text and image input and supports thinking, tool calling, function calling and structured outputs; Grok 4.5 accepts text and image input and supports thinking, tool calling, function calling, structured outputs and long context.
Yes. AIHubMix serves every model on this page behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so switching between them is a one-line change to the model field — no second account, key or SDK.
