Frequently Asked Questions

  • What generation modes does Grok Imagine support?

    Three modes: text-to-video (creating clips from descriptions), image-to-video (animating static images), and video editing (modifying existing videos through style changes, object replacement, and scene alterations).

  • Does Grok Imagine generate audio?

    Yes. Grok Imagine generates audio in the clip with lip-sync, so you often don't need separate voice recording or dubbing.

  • How fast does Grok Imagine generate video?

    Generation is fast enough for iteration in most setups; exact time depends on length, resolution, and load. Expect short clips, not long renders.

  • What plans support video generation?

    Pro and Enterprise plan subscribers and paid AI Gateway users.

  • How do I authenticate with Grok Imagine through Vercel AI Gateway?

    Use your Vercel AI Gateway API key with xai/grok-imagine-video as the model identifier. You can integrate through the AI SDK's generateVideo function, the AI Gateway playground at https://ai-sdk.dev/playground/xai:grok-imagine-video, or the v0 Grok Creative Studio.

  • Can I refine generated videos with follow-up prompts?

    Yes. Grok Imagine understands follow-up instructions to tweak scenes, adjust styles, and modify content. Use iterative prompting to refine output.

  • Does Vercel AI Gateway support Zero Data Retention for Grok Imagine?

    Zero Data Retention is not currently available for this model. ZDR on AI Gateway applies to direct gateway requests; BYOK flows aren't covered. See https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/capabilities/zdr for details.
