When this could help
Useful any time you're already using Grok for everyday questions or multistep knowledge-work tasks (spreadsheets, slides, drafting, PDF summaries) and want the latest model without changing how you access Grok.
Grok 4.5 now powers Grok everywhere it's used — grok.com, X, and the iOS/Android apps — with better instruction-following, longer conversation memory, clearer answers, and more efficient reasoning on harder questions. For knowledge work, it can handle multistep tasks such as building a working spreadsheet, turning an outline into slides and diagrams, drafting prose, or summarising a long PDF on desktop or phone, and it's also available inside Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook via Microsoft 365 add-ins.
How to get started
Use Grok as normal on grok.com, X, or the mobile apps — Grok 4.5 is now the model behind these experiences.
Provider guidance ↗For knowledge-work tasks, ask Grok to build a working spreadsheet, turn an outline into slides and diagrams, draft prose, or summarise key points from a long PDF.
Provider guidance ↗In Word, Excel, PowerPoint or Outlook, use the Microsoft 365 add-in to access Grok directly in the document you're working on.
