> xAI made Grok 4.6 available on Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform via Model Garden at $2 / $0.50 cached / $6 per million tokens — the same list as Bedrock two days earlier — with a 500k context window and low through xhigh reasoning effort. Google-cloud distribution follows the August 12 model GA.

**Correction / update, October 14, 2026:** Corrected the platform name and nine-day launch interval; removed unsourced Workspace, competing-model and later Foundry claims.

Grok 4.6 reached Google’s Model Garden nine days after its first-party launch and two days after Bedrock.

**xAI** put **Grok 4.6** on **Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform** through **Model Garden** (`publishers/xai/model-garden/grok-4.6`). Price matches Bedrock and the first-party API: **$2 input / $0.50 cached / $6 output** per million tokens. Context **500k**; effort **low, medium, high, xhigh**. This is **Google-cloud distribution**, two days after **Amazon Bedrock** and following the **August 12** model GA.

## What shipped

| Item | Detail (x.ai/news primary) |

| **Surface** | Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform / Model Garden |
| **Price** | **$2 / $0.50 / $6** per 1M tokens |
| **Docs** | Partner model card for Grok 4.6 |

This is an **agent-platform model** endpoint.
