My neighbour watered my plants for two weeks while I was away. Write a short, warm thank-you note I can leave with a small gift. Keep it under 80 words.

Thank you so much for watering my plants while I was away. Your kindness made such a difference, and they’re thriving thanks to you. I’m truly grateful.

In plain words

Grok 4.3 is a chat assistant from xAI, and one of the more capable Groks in chatmodel. It understands photos and reads documents, so you can bring it a contract, a warranty or a picture of something at home.

It tends to give fuller, more detailed answers than the lighter Groks. It can’t search the web.

How to get the most out of it

  1. Upload the full document. It can handle the whole thing, so don’t cut it up.
  2. Ask specific questions. “Who pays for the boiler?” beats “is this OK?”.
  3. Send more than one photo if it helps: a close-up and a wider shot.
  4. Ask what to ask. “What should I ask the builder?” turns an answer into a next step.

How it compares with the rest of the family

It’s a step up from Grok 4.20 and far fuller than Grok 4.1 Fast. Grok 4.5 adds web search and thinks before it answers. Grok 4.6 is newer still and thinks first, but works with text only.

When to pick another model

If you want the answer to be thought through step by step, try Grok 4.5. For warm, careful letters, many people prefer Claude Opus 5.
