Claude Opus 4.7 Thinking
Grok 4.5The claude-opus-4-7-think model has adaptive thinking mode pre-enabled; the default thinking intensity is "medium", and it can be invoked directly via the OpenAI unified API. The claude-opus-4-7 model does not display thinking content by default; you need to set the extra parameter "display": "summarized" to enable it.
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.
