Grok Imagine is xAI's video model. It is known for fast, stylised clips, image-to-video that stays close to a still, and native audio generated with the picture. xAI made Imagine Video 1.5 generally available in June 2026, then added text-to-video and reference images in July. On Elyum you use it as text to video, image to video, reference to video, and video editing, in clips from 1 to 15 seconds.

Use it for short social clips, stills you want to animate, reference-locked product or character shots, and edits to a clip you already have. One credit balance across 50+ models, from a Free plan with 150 starter credits up to Ultra, plus top-ups. Also runs from Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor through Elyum's MCP server and REST API.

Why Grok Imagine is good

Stylised and quick

Grok Imagine is known for short, stylised clips that come back fast. That is the usual pick when you want motion and a look, not a long photoreal render.

Native audio

Sound effects, ambience, and dialogue generate in the same pass as the picture. xAI's Video 1.5 update focused on clearer speech that lands on the action.

Motion that holds

xAI's June 2026 Video 1.5 release targeted fewer warps and more believable weight and momentum over a clip. Image-to-video holds lighting and detail from the source still.

Text, image, reference, and edit

On Elyum the four routes are text to video, image to video, reference to video, and video editing. Clips run 1–15 seconds, with three aspect ratios.

Lock a face or product

Reference-to-video guides the shot with stills so a face, product, or location can hold while the action changes. xAI added this in a July 2026 Imagine Video 1.5 update.
