“I realized that it makes a huge difference.”

Yet if you go to the actual model’s page: https://openrouter.ai/x-ai/grok-code-fast-1 Cline and Kilo code are in the top 3. So how does that work? It’s considerably cheaper than competing models like 2.5 flash, though. So its not that surprising

“Grok Code Fast 1 is the most used model by a significant margin”

“I've found it to be many times faster and cheaper than Claude 4.5 or GPT 5 Codex while still being quite capable.”
