# grok-beta

Calls to the model grok-beta on xAI stopped working on October 14, 2026.

## The error xAI returns once grok-beta is gone

HTTP 400

```json
{"code":"invalid-argument","error":"Model not found: grok-beta"}
```

## What to use instead

Move to grok-4.3. Two full generations later. Treat this as a rewrite rather than a model swap.
