Grok Imagine is xAI’s video generator, built on the Grok model family and tuned for speed: drop in an image – or ask Grok for one – and it animates short clips with sound in seconds. Aixploria’s community rates it 4.5/5, and it is the most frictionless option for X creators because generation happens where the audience already is. The Grok Imagine 1.5 update added faster rendering and higher-fidelity motion, and an iOS app makes phone-first creation one tap.
There is no standalone subscription: video generation is included with X Premium at $30 per month (Super at $100 and Ultra at $200 raise the allowances), while the API bills per output second – about $0.05-$0.08 for grok-imagine-video as of mid-2026. If you want one invoice that covers chat, image generation and video, and you already live on X, Imagine is the shortest path from idea to posted clip.
