What changed with Grok 4.1 Fast

On November 19, 2025, xAI released Grok 4.1 Fast in reasoning and non-reasoning variants and launched an Agent Tools API. The tools give agents server-side access to web search, X search, code execution, file and collection search, and remote MCP servers.

Why Grok 4.1 Fast matters for businesses

For agencies, the draw is cost: the listed price is $0.20 per 1M input tokens and $0.50 per 1M output tokens, with tool calls from $5 per 1,000 successful invocations. That makes high-volume support or lookup agents cheaper to run, though results should be tested on your own workflows.
