Grok

Grok Imagine is xAI's media model family. It generates images and short video clips from prompts, with a looser content policy than most mainstream models.

About 27 credits per 5 second clip. You buy credits once and spend them on any model, no subscription needed.

The Grok family on BasedLabs covers text to video and image to video across 2 variants. Pick a variant below and it opens in the generator with that model preselected.

Text to video builds the whole scene from your prompt, so it is best when you do not have a starting visual. Image to video animates a picture you already have, which gives you much more control over composition and characters. If you care about how the first frame looks, generate an image first and animate it.

You need a free BasedLabs account, which comes with starter credits. After that you only pay for what you generate.
