Qwen3.7 Max vs SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7
Published LiveBench scores across all seven categories, live list pricing, context windows, and the measured cost of a point of capability — for both models, side by side.
SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 is the better model, at roughly the same price.
SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 leads by 4.3 points overall and the two list within about 10% of each other, so the cheaper-but-weaker trade-off does not apply. Price parity plus a score gap usually makes this an easy call. Qwen3.7 Max also leads on measured cost per point of capability, at $0.0971 per point.

Benchmarks by category
An overall score averages away the thing you probably care about. These are the seven LiveBench categories scored separately — Qwen3.7 Max on top, SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 below, both out of 100.
What each one costs to run
Per-token prices are hard to feel. These are monthly list costs for both models across five workload shapes, using each provider's published cached-input rate where there is one.

Qwen3.7 Max vs SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 FAQ
Which is better, Qwen3.7 Max or SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7?
SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 is the better model, at roughly the same price. SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 leads by 4.3 points overall and the two list within about 10% of each other, so the cheaper-but-weaker trade-off does not apply. Price parity plus a score gap usually makes this an easy call. Qwen3.7 Max also leads on measured cost per point of capability, at $0.0971 per point.
Is Qwen3.7 Max cheaper than SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7?
They cost about the same. Both land near $2.21 per million tokens on a 3:1 input:output blend, so price is unlikely to be the deciding factor between them.
Qwen3.7 Max vs SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7: which scores higher on benchmarks?
Qwen3.7 Max scores 73.1 and SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 scores 77.4 overall on LiveBench, the mean of its seven categories. That is a 4.3-point lead for SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7. Category scores differ from the overall figure — a model can lead on reasoning and trail on coding, which the per-category table above breaks out.
Which gives better value for money, Qwen3.7 Max or SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7?
Qwen3.7 Max. Cost per point divides the measured dollars LiveBench spent running the benchmark by the score it earned, so it captures something token pricing misses: a reasoning model can emit many times more tokens than its per-token rate suggests. Qwen3.7 Max works out at $0.0971 per point and SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 at $0.4062.
Does Qwen3.7 Max or SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 have a bigger context window?
Qwen3.7 Max has the larger context window: 1M for Qwen3.7 Max against 500K for SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7. Note that a window you can fill is not a window you should fill — retrieval quality usually degrades well before the limit, and you pay for every token you put in it.
Do Qwen3.7 Max and SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7 support prompt caching?
Both publish a cached-input rate: $0.295 per million for Qwen3.7 Max and $0.400 for SpaceXAI: Grok 4.7, against full input rates of $1.48 and $1.60. On a workload with a long stable prefix — a system prompt, a tool schema, a retrieved corpus — that changes the economics more than the headline price does.

How these numbers are produced
- Price — provider list price from OpenRouter, refreshed every 15 minutes. “Blended” is a 3:1 input:output mix.
- Scores — LiveBench release 2026-06-25, using their own category map. Each model shows its strongest published run. A blank means “not evaluated”, never “bad”.
- Cost per point — the measured dollars LiveBench spent on the run, divided by the score it earned.
- “Win” — awarded only past a threshold: one full point on a benchmark score, 10% on a price, 25% on a context window. Anything tighter reports as a tie, because effort settings alone move a LiveBench score by more than that.
