It generates video clips from text descriptions and static images with motion, instruction following, and support for complex prompts and follow-up instructions to refine scenes. The model supports three primary generation modes: text-to-video (creating clips from text descriptions), image-to-video (generating motion from static images), and video editing (modifying existing video content through style changes, object replacement, and scene alterations). It also generates audio timed to the video with lip-sync, so you can skip separate voice recording for many workflows. Grok Imagine produces short clips quickly enough for iterative creative workflows. You can call it from the AI SDK's generateVideo function or the v0 Grok Creative Studio. Video generation is currently available to Pro and Enterprise plan subscribers and paid AI Gateway users. ## [Copy link to heading](#what-to-consider-when-choosing-a-provider)What To Consider When Choosing a Provider - Configuration: Video generation is currently limited to Pro and Enterprise plans, as well as paid AI Gateway users. Verify your plan supports video generation before integrating. - Configuration: Grok Imagine understands follow-up instructions to tweak scenes. Use iterative prompting to refine output rather than trying to get the perfect result in a single generation. - Zero Data Retention: Zero Data Retention is offered on a per-provider and model basis. See the [documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/security-and-compliance/zdr) for details. - Authentication: AI Gateway authenticates requests using an [API key](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/authentication-and-byok#api-key-authentication) or [OIDC token](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/authentication-and-byok#oidc-token-authentication). You do not need to manage provider credentials directly. ## [Copy link to heading](#when-to-use-grok-imagine)When to Use Grok Imagine ### Best for - Marketing and social media video content: Where custom clips are needed at scale without traditional video production - Product demos and explainer videos: That visualize concepts, features, or workflows through generated scenes - Creative prototyping and storyboarding: Teams iterate on visual concepts before committing to full production - Content creation pipelines: That generate short video assets programmatically for personalization or A/B testing - Lip-synced video with native audio: For talking-head content, presentations, or character-driven narratives ### Consider alternatives when - Static image generation: Grok Imagine Image or Grok Imagine Image Pro handles the task without video overhead - Long-form video production: Traditional editing tools provide more control over extended content - Free-tier usage: Video generation currently requires a paid plan ## [Copy link to heading](#conclusion)Conclusion Grok Imagine brings AI video generation into the Vercel AI Gateway ecosystem. It supports text-to-video, image-to-video, video editing, and audio in one pipeline. Iterative prompting and short clip latency fit production workflows that need custom video without full traditional production.
