Grok Imagine Image

Cheap prompt-to-image at 2 credits, from the house that makes Grok Imagine Video 1.5, which is the reason it is here. If a clip is going to be animated on the Grok video model, its first frame made on the Grok image model tends to need less persuasion than one imported from another family's look.

Its reference channel is unusual and worth understanding before you plan around it. Where most of this catalog takes a tray of up to seven references, this takes exactly one image, and it does not treat it as a reference at all: it edits it. Hand it a picture and a prompt and you get that picture changed, not a new picture influenced by it. That makes it a good editing tool and a poor consistency tool, because one photo cannot show a subject from three angles the way a seven-slot tray can.

Editing is metered separately from generating: the picture you send in costs about half a credit per megapixel on top of the 2, so an edit runs 2.5 to 3.5 credits depending on how large the input is. Seven aspect ratios, JPEG out, and no resolution or quality dropdown at all. There is exactly one way to run it. The Quality variant is where the resolution ladder lives.
