Measured results are shown as published

Every score in the benchmark tables comes from its source unchanged. Composite IQ averages all seven dimensions equally.

Estimates fill the gaps

Abstract Reasoning, Computer Use, Reliability and Knowledge Work have no published results yet, so their IQ is estimated from grok-2's other dimensions.

A missing result is not a zero

Benchmark versions and evaluation harnesses can differ between sources, so small gaps between models may not be meaningful.

How AI IQ scores models →Get this data from the API →
What is the IQ of grok-2?
grok-2 has an estimated IQ of 83, which ranks #171 out of 176 public models on the AI IQ leaderboard. The score combines seven equally weighted reasoning dimensions using measured benchmark results and conservative estimates for missing coverage.
What is grok-2 best at?
Among the dimensions with published benchmark results, grok-2 ranks highest in Programmatic Reasoning (IQ 98, #146 of 177) and Mathematical Reasoning (IQ 88, #157 of 176). Its lowest-ranked measured dimension is Academic Reasoning (IQ 100, #192 of 203).
What is the EQ of grok-2?
grok-2 doesn't have an EQ score yet. EQ (emotional reasoning) is calculated from EQ-Bench 4 and AttuneBench, and neither has published a result for grok-2. AI IQ doesn't estimate EQ from other benchmarks, so the score appears once one of those results is published.
Which benchmarks has grok-2 been tested on?
grok-2 has published results on 6 of the 39 benchmarks behind AI IQ's Composite IQ, including MMLU-Pro, SciCode, AIME, GPQA Diamond and Humanity's Last Exam.
How much does grok-2 cost?
AI IQ doesn't have a verified standard per-token API price for grok-2, so it can't calculate an effective cost. This is common for models offered only through subscriptions, restricted-access programs, or self-hosting.
Is grok-2 open source?
No — grok-2 is a proprietary model. Its weights are not publicly available, so it is used through hosted APIs and products.
Who developed grok-2?
grok-2 was developed by xAI, based in the United States.
When was grok-2 released?
grok-2 was publicly released on August 14, 2024.
How large is the context window of grok-2?
AI IQ hasn't verified an input context limit for grok-2 from its developer's documentation, so none is listed rather than guessing.
How fast is grok-2?
AI IQ doesn't have independent speed measurements for grok-2 yet. Speed comes from independent tests of a model's hosted API, which aren't available for every model — especially new, restricted-access, or self-hosted ones.
