It may not be the first chatbot that comes to mind (ChatGPT is practically becoming a catch-all for AI chatbots), but Grok is still an impressive addition to the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Developed by Elon Musk's xAI, this cutting-edge technology has emerged as a real competitor in the AI space, especially with its latest release, Grok 3.
So, what is Grok AI all about? Read on to learn about some of the top Grok facts and statistics.
Grok is an AI assistant powered by xAI’s large language model (LLM), similar to how ChatGPT runs on OpenAI’s GPT models. (Source)
When comparing Grok vs. ChatGPT and other LLMs, though, Grok is designed to provide witty responses like similar technology detailed in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and Iron Man, making it a unique alternative to the tone you can get from some of its competitors. (Source)
Don’t let its humor fool you, though — this powerful AI assistant can handle all kinds of tasks. With Grok, you can:
Overall, Grok’s capabilities are largely what we’ve come to expect from other AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Gemini. However, its X integration sets it apart, making it a great fit for those interested in real-time insights from the popular social media platform.
Now, just one question remains: how does Grok pull it all off?
Although much must come together to make up its capabilities, Grok is powered by at least three foundational technologies: its architecture as an LLM, custom training infrastructure, and social media integration.
Grok is powered by xAI’s LLM family (Source) Around the time of the Grok-1 release, xAI revealed that it’s an autoregressive Transformer-based model that uses next-token prediction to generate responses. (Source) Or, in other words, Grok comes up with its replies by predicting the words or symbols most likely to follow a given text.
Now, it’s important to note that xAI hasn’t publicly disclosed whether Grok-3 has the same underlying architecture as Grok-1. However, this next-token prediction method is a fundamental technique in LLMs. (Source)
xAI uses a custom-built infrastructure to support the large-scale training and fine-tuning of a chatbot like Grok. Of course, the company won’t give away all its secrets, but there are a few things we know about its training infrastructure.
For example, there’s the Colossus supercluster, or as Elon Musk calls it “the most powerful AI training system in the world.” (Source)
Running on 100,000 interconnected NVIDIA GPUs in a facility in Memphis, Tennessee, this supercomputer xAI has built over time provides synchronous training and continuous daily improvements for Grok 3. (Source and Source)
Then, there’s the software stack. xAI created Grok using a custom-built training and inference stack based on:
By combining Kubernetes to keep things organized, Rust for speed and reliability, and Jax for ML, xAI has put together a stack that optimizes Grok’s training and responses.
One thing that really sets Grok apart from the rest is its integration with the X platform. Although some chatbots can access the internet for real-time information, Grok can pull insights about current trends and discussions directly from X. (Source)
With X users projected to reach over 500 million by 2028, getting the latest updates straight from the platform can give users a competitive edge. (Source) Whether you’re covering breaking news or trying to stay ahead of industry trends, Grok’s X integration can help you get information fast, in real-time.
Elon Musk founded xAI in 2023 with one goal in mind: to gain a better understanding of the universe. (Source)
Musk initially — not to mention, quietly — incorporated the company as X.AI Corp in Nevada in March 2023 with:
(Source)
However, the name “Grok” or even “xAI” wouldn’t be thrown around just yet.
In April 2023, Business Insider reported that the tech billionaire purchased about 10,000 GPUs for his then-recent acquisition of Twitter (which he promptly renamed X). (Source)
Since tech companies usually use GPUs to develop large AI models, rumors spread that Musk was working on an AI project of his own. (Source)
His GPU purchase wasn’t the only evidence, though. An insider revealed that Musk’s latest Twitter project involved an LLM, and by March 2023 Musk hired engineers Igor Babuschkin and Maneual Kroiss from DeepMind, Alphabet’s AI research lab (Source)
With Reuters reporting that Musk had been approaching AI researchers about creating a new research lab to develop a ChatGPT alternative since at least February 2023, it seemed he was laying the groundwork for what would become xAI. (Source)
Musk’s visions of an OpenAI and ChatGPT alternative didn’t come as a surprise. Although technically a founder of the AI research lab, Musk cut ties with OpenAI in February 2018 over disagreements about a potential for-profit structure. (Source) It was then that he mentioned his plan to build an artificial general intelligence (AGI) competitor. (Source)
However, an official announcement wouldn’t happen until a few years later. In April 2023, Musk said he would launch “TruthGPT,” an AI platform to rival similar Microsoft and Google products. (Source)
He criticized both companies around the time, claiming that Microsoft-backed OpenAI had been training their AI to lie and Google’s co-founder Larry Page of downplaying the issue of AI safety. (Source) So, Musk would create TruthGPT to ensure AI safety himself. (Source)
He must have been getting close when he officially went public with xAI on July 12, 2023. (Source) Musk didn’t mention TruthGPT or any other AI project at the time, but he did announce its 12-member founding team, including:
(Source)
Advised by the director of the Center for AI Safety, Dan Hendrycks, xAI’s founding team features former employees of its competitors Microsoft, Google, and OpenAI. (Source) Recognizing that he was late to the AI game, recruiting this particular team was likely a strategic move by Musk to catch up to his rivals and develop his AI vision as soon as possible. (Source)
If that was his plan, it didn’t take long to see results. Just a month after going public, xAI had already finished training its first large-scale AI model.
On August 18, 2023, xAI finished training Grok-0, its first flagship model. (Source) A 33B parameter dense transformer architecture, Grok-0 proved comparable to LLaMA 2 (70B) capabilities on standard LLM benchmarks. (Source and Source) Even better, it could do it with only half its training resources. (Source)
However, as impressive as those numbers may have been at the time, xAI never released Grok-0 to the public. Instead, it spent another few months improving the prototype LLM’s reasoning and coding abilities before its first official product launch (Source).
Ready to see what they’ve rolled out to the public so far? Here’s a breakdown of Grok’s key product release history.
On November 3, 2023, xAI announced Grok, its AI chatbot, alongside the Grok-1 model powering it, with early access kicking off that same day. (Source) One of the things highlighted in the announcement is that, unlike other chatbots, Grok can answer “spicy” questions, complete with its unique wit and rebellious nature. (Source) It also had an 8,192-token context window to retain and recall details from longer conversations. (Source)
Although the chatbot couldn’t search the web independently just yet, xAI trained Grok-1 with a combination of data from its AI Tutors and the internet up to Q3 2023. (Source) However, Grok could pull real-time information from the X platform, so it could still report on trending topics and discussions. (Source)
Besides, Grok-1 performed well on various ML benchmarks, surpassing ChatGPT-3.5 and other models in its compute class:
The only models that could surpass Grok-1 at the time were those that had more training data and compute resources, demonstrating xAI’s efficiency in training its LLMs. (Source)
To give members of its early access program a deeper look into Grok-1, xAI announced the release of its PromptIDE on November 6, 2023. (Source) Describing it as “an integrated development environment for prompt engineering and interpretability research”, PromptIDE gave these members transparent access to Grok-1, helping them understand its capabilities. (Source)
After releasing its first software development kit (SDK) and Grok API to close partners on November 15, 2023, Grok made its debut on X. (Source) On December 7, 2023, xAI officially made Grok available to X Premium+ subscribers on both the X website and apps. (Source)
xAI didn’t reveal too much more about Grok-1 until the next year. On March 17, 2024, the company released Grok-1’s base model weights and architecture from its pre-training phase under the Apache 2.0 license (Source) Here, xAI revealed that Grok-1 is a trained-from-scratch 314 billion parameter Mixture-of-Experts model. (Source)
However, the company didn’t mention that the release of Grok’s latest model was just a few weeks away.
On March 28, 2024, xAI announced Grok-1.5, which they said would become available to early testers and current Grok users via the X platform in the near future. (Source) An improved version of xAI’s flagship model, Grok 1.5 featured:
(Source)
Like its previous model, Grok also performed well on various ML benchmarks, demonstrating comparable scores to its competitors:
About two weeks later, xAI introduced yet another version of this model. On April 12, 2024, the company announced Grok-1.5V, its first-generation multimodal model. (Source) Now, in addition to text, Grok could process visual information, including:
(Source)
At the same time, xAI introduced a new benchmark, RealWorldQA, which evaluates how multimodal models process basic spatial information from the real world. (Source) According to xAI, Grok-1.5V not only outperformed similar models in this benchmark but also proved competitive in various other domains, like multi-disciplinary reasoning. (Source)
Now, there’s one important thing to note about Grok-1.5V: despite its introduction, it doesn’t appear to have had a formal release. However, xAI did release Grok-1.5 to all X Premium users on May 15, 2024. (Source)
The xAI team must have been busy that summer. On August 13, 2024, xAI started rolling out on X an early preview of Grok-2 and Grok-2 mini, its latest additions to the Grok family. (Source) Described as the company’s frontier language model, Grok-2 and even the slightly less powerful Grok-2 mini showed significant improvements in academic benchmarks from Grok 1.5. (Source)
Both models even proved competitive with similar frontier models in areas like:
(Source)
Although xAI teased access to Grok-2 and Grok-2 mini via an API later that month, an official announcement didn’t happen until a few months later. (Source) On November 4, 2024, xAI released a public beta of its API, giving developers programmatic access to its Grok models. (Source)
You’d think that’d be plenty of releases for the second half of 2024, but the company still had a few more surprises up its sleeve. On December 9, 2024, xAI started to roll out its new autoregressive image generation model, Aurora, on X. (Source)
As an autoregressive MoE network, Aurora trains on a blend of text and image inputs to predict the next piece in a sequence. (Source) This enables Grok to create high-quality images, including precise visual details of:
(Source)
Plus, Aurora could support multimodal input, enabling it to take inspiration from or edit user images. (Source) With such an exciting new feature, it’s no wonder xAI wanted to bring Grok to everyone.
On December 12, 2024, xAI began to roll out Grok-2 to all X users for free. (Source) After a few weeks of testing, its latest version of Grok-2 was ready for the public, and featured improvements in:
(Source)
If that wasn’t exciting enough, xAI took the opportunity to make a few more announcements on this Grok-2 release day, including:
(Source)
However, the company barely let users get used to its latest Grok-2 developments. It released its next model just a couple of months later.
On February 17, 2025, xAI unveiled its latest model, Grok-3, and a smaller version, Grok 3 mini on X. (Source)
Appearing to be the first model to train on xAI’s Colussus supercluster with 10x the compute of the previous models, these latest additions to the Grok family showed impressive results across various academic benchmarks.
Take a closer look at Grok 3 mini and Grok 3 vs: GPT-4o, Gemini 2.0 Pro, Deepseek V3, and Claude 3.5 Sonnet:
Grok also showed marked improvements in reasoning, likely due to the addition of two beta reasoning models, Grok 3 (Think) and Grok 3 mini (Think). (Source)
Trained using reinforcement learning (RL), both models are capable of advanced reasoning, and can even refine their own problem-solving strategies. (Source) With a context window of 1 million tokens, Grok 3 (Think) can handle some seriously complex reasoning prompts. (Source)
To further help it with its mission to understand the universe, xAI also started to roll out DeepSearch, its first AI agent. (Source)
Described as “a lightning-fast AI agent built to relentlessly seek the truth across the entire corpus of human knowledge”, DeepSearch generates comprehensive research reports to help users keep up with what’s going on in the world. (Source)
On February 19, 2025, xAI released Grok 3 to everyone, though X Premium+ and SuperGrok users would still have increased and early access to advanced features (Source)
In the same post, xAI hinted that another advanced feature, Voice Mode, would be on the horizon. (Source) Considering its product release history, it wouldn’t be surprising if this is the only new feature coming to X in the future.
With the amount of money it has raised over the years, it’s no wonder that xAI has some impressive product development under its belt. Since its founding, xAI has raised a staggering $12.4 billion over four funding rounds. (Source)
On November 1, 2023, xAI announced its first corporate funding round. (Source) It raised $250 million from just one investor, X (Twitter). (Source)
With the announcement of Grok just two days later, it’s hard to say what Musk had planned for this initial investment. It does appear, though that it wasn’t enough — xAI would receive another infusion of funds the next month.
On December 5, 2023, xAI announced a venture round. (Source) In its second formal funding round, the company raised $134.7 million from investors, including Roman Smolevskiy. (Source)
Despite yet another significant financial contribution, though, a US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Form D filing on the same day disclosed that this $134.7 million was just the tip of the iceberg. (Source) It was part of a larger offering of $1 billion, and xAI already had binding and enforceable agreements in place for the remainder. (Source)
xAI set its sights even higher with its third funding round. Announced May 26, 2024, xAI raised $6 billion from 25 investors, including Sequoia Capital and Andreessen Horowitz. (Source and Source)
On their blog at the time, xAI reported that funding from this round would go toward three key areas:
(Source)
Considering their goals here, it’s possible that some of this funding played an important role in the release of Grok 2 just a few months later. In fact, it may have spent a good chunk of it on the product, as xAI would participate in another funding round later that year.
Announced November 20, 2024, xAI’s fourth funding round raised another $6 billion from 16 investors, including:
(Source)
Taking to its blog once again, xAI reported that this latest funding would again go toward three main areas:
(Source)
As with its series B round, xAI’s latest infusion of funds came just a few months before the release of its latest model, Grok 3. So, at this point, it wouldn’t be a surprise if xAI announces another funding round before announcing a new version of its AI chatbot.
No AI chatbot or model is perfect, and Grok is no exception. Here is a breakdown of some of Grok’s limitations.
Even xAI recognizes that no matter how confident the chatbot may be, early versions of Grok may not get it right 100% of the time. (Source) It’s entirely possible for Grok to:
(Source)
Ready to see what Grok is all about? Here’s a brief overview of how to use Grok.
Don’t let the Grok homepage fool you–you’ll need to sign in before you can officially use the chatbot. There are two ways to access the sign-in page:
Once there, you can sign in with either your current X or Google credentials or sign up for an account to log in with an email and password.
That’s it! You’re officially ready to use Grok. If you previously typed a request into the chat input box before signing in, it will now start generating an answer. Otherwise, you’re free to check out Grok’s capabilities.
Grok’s features include:
Of course, you can also use Grok to generate text, including blog posts and other types of content. However, this leaves one important question: can Grok’s AI-generated text bypass AI detectors?
Is Grok AI-generated text detectable? In our study: Can Grok AI Content Be Detected? We conducted an analysis into whether AI Checkers could identify text generated by Grok.
For our analysis, we tested Grok AI text against multiple AI detectors: Originality.ai AI Checker, GPTZero, and Sapling.
To conduct this brief analysis we used a sample range with 200+ AI-generated articles. Originality.ai correctly identified 90% of the content as AI-generated.
So, yes — Grok’s AI-generated text is detectable by the Originality.ai AI Checker.
Note: This initial study and AI detection Grok analysis was conducted on a previous Originality.ai AI-detection model. For information on the accuracy of our latest AI detection models check out our Originality.ai AI detection accuracy study.
The results from the Grok AI detectability study demonstrated that Originality.ai had:
For comparison, we also evaluate the accuracy of GPTZero in detecting Grok AI-generated text.
The results from the Grok AI detectability study demonstrated that GPTZero had:
Then, we also tested the AI detectability with Sapling.
The results of the Sapling text were:
Read the full Grok detectability study here.
To expand on our previous Grok AI detectability study, here we’re reviewing whether Originality.ai can detect text generated by Grok with unique prompts that aim to humanize the content.
To start the tests, first, we’ll prompt the most common type of response from Grok to use as a comparison. So, for the initial test, we won’t include additional instructions (in order to obtain a regular prompt of medium-length produced by Grok).
The topic for the first test is the technology industry and will be used as a comparison for the second stage of testing.
[Prompt #1] Generate a short article between 800 and 1000 words on the innovations of cloud computing throughout recent years.
Originality.ai has detected that Grok’s text is likely AI with 100% confidence.
Let’s move on to the second prompt, where we provide Grok with additional instructions on how to humanize the text.
[Prompt #2] - Generate a short article between 800 and 1000 words on the innovations of cloud computing throughout recent years. Stick to the conversational tone of human dialogue and avoid using common or robotic phrases. Break up the text with bullets and numbered lists. Break long sentences into short ones, add transition phrases, and replace commonly used words with synonyms.
Originality.ai has detected the text is likely AI with 100% confidence, regardless of the unique instructions we’ve included for generating and structuring the output as conversational.
Now, let’s proceed with the second stage of testing and determine whether providing Grok with a text example will have an impact on Originality.ai’s score.
For this test, we’ll provide Grok with a fully human-written example article about the technology sector and request that it copy the pronunciation method and style.
[Prompt #1] Generate a short article between 800 and 1000 words on the innovations of cloud computing throughout recent years. Use this *article* as an example. Refer to the article’s pronunciation and style of sentence structuring.
The Originality.ai AI Checker identified the text as likely AI with 100% confidence.
Now, we’ll use all of the previous instructions to humanize the content as much as possible and provide the written article example to Grok.
[Prompt #2] - Generate a short article between 800 and 1000 words on the innovations of cloud computing throughout recent years. Stick to the conversational tone of human dialogue and avoid using common or robotic phrases. Break up the text with bullets and numbered lists. Break long sentences into short ones, add transition phrases, and replace commonly used words with synonyms. Use this *article* as an example. Refer to the article’s pronunciation and style of sentence structuring.
Once again, Originality.ai showcased exceptional performance and identified the text as likely AI with 100% confidence.
Despite intense competition, Grok’s website still sees a lot of traffic with nearly 1.2 million visitors in January 2025. (Source) Here’s a snapshot of grok.com’s top traffic sources during that time:
(Source)
Grok.com gets most of its desktop traffic from direct sources.
So, where is all this traffic coming from? Although Grok’s website attracts visitors worldwide, the United States is responsible for over half of its traffic.
As of January 2025, grok.com gets most of its traffic from:
(Source)
Considering that Musk is the founder of xAI, the top social media site (X) sending traffic to Grok’s website shouldn’t be too much of a surprise. As of January 2025, grok.com’s top traffic sources from social media are:
(Source)
New tech often has a younger audience, and Grok is no exception. As of January 2025, the age distribution of grok.com’s visitors is:
(Source)
Although Grok’s website attracts users of all ages, it’s most popular with those 25-34.
As of January 2025, grok.com’s gender distribution is:
(Source)
Grok’s visitors typically use a variation of the same keyword to access its website. As of January 2025, the keywords driving the most organic desktop traffic to grok.com include:
(Source)
Outside of these different “grok” variations, Grok has another 29 keywords driving organic traffic to its website. (Source)
Although it may have been late to the game, Grok has become a real contender in the AI chatbot and model space. Led by Elon Musk, xAI has made significant progress with Grok in a short amount of time, and it will be fascinating to see if the company continues to release new updates and features with such regularity.

Can’t get enough of Grok-related information? Check out the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about the AI chatbot below.
Yes, there is a free version of Grok. However, it has restrictions. Free users can only ask Grok up to ten questions/two hours. They can also generate four images and analyze another three each day. You’d need to subscribe to X Premium or X Premium+ for increased access to Grok and its features. (Source)
It depends, especially with both chatbots’ creators regularly releasing new models, features, and updates. However, if you’d benefit from retrieving real-time information from X posts and enjoy a rebellious, witty personality, then you may prefer Grok. On the other hand, if you prefer a chatbot with more guardrails or creating and accessing custom GPTs, ChatGPT may be a better fit.
During a live demo of Grok 3 on February 17, 2025, Musk revealed that the name “Grok” comes from a science fiction novel called “Stranger in a Strange Land” by author Robert Heinlein. In the novel, it means to deeply and fully understand something, reflecting xAI’s mission to understand the universe. (Source)
No, that’s one of the benefits, only fill out the areas which you think will be relevant to the prompts you require.
When making the tool we had to make each prompt as general as possible to be able to include every kind of input. Not to worry though ChatGPT is smart and will still understand the prompt.
Originality.ai did a fantastic job on all three prompts, precisely detecting them as AI-written. Additionally, after I checked with actual human-written textual content, it did determine it as 100% human-generated, which is important.

Tools for conducting a plagiarism check between two documents online are important as it helps to ensure the originality and authenticity of written work. Plagiarism undermines the value of professional and educational institutions, as well as the integrity of the authors who write articles. By checking for plagiarism, you can ensure the work that you produce is original or properly attributed to the original author. This helps prevent the distribution of copied and misrepresented information.
Text comparison is the process of taking two or more pieces of text and comparing them to see if there are any similarities, differences and/or plagiarism. The objective of a text comparison is to see if one of the texts has been copied or paraphrased from another text. This text compare tool for plagiarism check between two documents has been built to help you streamline that process by finding the discrepancies with ease.
Text comparison tools work by analyzing and comparing the contents of two or more text documents to find similarities and differences between them. This is typically done by breaking the texts down into smaller units such as sentences or phrases, and then calculating a similarity score based on the number of identical or nearly identical units. The comparison may be based on the exact wording of the text, or it may take into account synonyms and other variations in language. The results of the comparison are usually presented in the form of a report or visual representation, highlighting the similarities and differences between the texts.
String comparison is a fundamental operation in text comparison tools that involves comparing two sequences of characters to determine if they are identical or not. This comparison can be done at the character level or at a higher level, such as the word or sentence level.
The most basic form of string comparison is the equality test, where the two strings are compared character by character and a Boolean result indicating whether they are equal or not is returned. More sophisticated string comparison algorithms use heuristics and statistical models to determine the similarity between two strings, even if they are not exactly the same. These algorithms often use techniques such as edit distance, which measures the minimum number of operations (such as insertions, deletions, and substitutions) required to transform one string into another.
Another common technique for string comparison is n-gram analysis, where the strings are divided into overlapping sequences of characters (n-grams) and the frequency of each n-gram is compared between the two strings. This allows for a more nuanced comparison that takes into account partial similarities, rather than just exact matches.
String comparison is a crucial component of text comparison tools, as it forms the basis for determining the similarities and differences between texts. The results of the string comparison can then be used to generate a report or visual representation of the similarities and differences between the texts.
Syntax highlighting is a feature of text editors and integrated development environments (IDEs) that helps to visually distinguish different elements of a code or markup language. It does this by coloring different elements of the code, such as keywords, variables, functions, and operators, based on a predefined set of rules.
The purpose of syntax highlighting is to make the code easier to read and understand, by drawing attention to the different elements and their structure. For example, keywords may be colored in a different hue to emphasize their importance, while comments or strings may be colored differently to distinguish them from the code itself. This helps to make the code more readable, reducing the cognitive load of the reader and making it easier to identify potential syntax errors.
With our tool it’s easy, just enter or upload some text, click on the button “Compare text” and the tool will automatically display the diff between the two texts.
Using text comparison tools is much easier, more efficient, and more reliable than proofreading a piece of text by hand. Eliminate the risk of human error by using a tool to detect and display the text difference within seconds.
We have support for the file extensions .pdf, .docx, .odt, .doc and .txt. You can also enter your text or copy and paste text to compare.
There is never any data saved by the tool, when you hit “Upload” we are just scanning the text and pasting it into our text area so with our text compare tool, no data ever enters our servers.
