Grok video status:
FLUX vs Imagine Video
Grok FLUX video generation? Grok Imagine Video status, limits and API guide
Grok video maps to
grok-imagine-video.
If you are searching "Grok FLUX video generation", the useful answer is: FLUX is image-generation context, while current xAI docs list video generation under grok-imagine-video. Use this page to verify whether Grok video fits your use case, the current limits, the pricing model, and the fastest route into testing or API docs.
Quick answer
xAI video is live.
Docs use grok-imagine-video.
The current xAI docs use the model name
grok-imagine-video and describe generation up to 15 seconds at 480p or 720p. FLUX is an image model; use the current Grok video API when you need motion output.

Official status
Current xAI docs list video generation
Use the docs page, not old Grok/FLUX forum threads, when you need to check whether video generation is currently available.
Current docs label
grok-imagine-video
The current xAI docs name the video model and endpoint family as grok-imagine-video.
Current doc limits
1–15s, 480p/720p
The current docs describe 1–15 second generation, 480p or 720p output, and edited input videos capped at 8.7 seconds.
FLUX vs Grok Imagine Video
FLUX and Grok Imagine Video are different models. Check that distinction before pricing or API planning.
| Term | What it means now | Best use | Source / action |
|---|---|---|---|
| FLUX | Image-generation context around Black Forest Labs and older Grok image searches. | Image prompts, open-source image workflows, and text-heavy image generation comparisons. | Compare image models |
| Grok Imagine Video | Current xAI video docs use grok-imagine-video for video generation. | Video generation, edits, extensions, and API tests where duration and resolution affect cost. | xAI video docs |
| Consumer Grok vs API | Consumer features, subscription access, and API limits can differ. | Use consumer Grok for casual tests; use docs and pricing pages before building or budgeting. | Open Grok guide |
Current status checklist: what to verify before you buy or build
This is the minimum decision checklist for anyone researching Grok video generation, FLUX status, limits, or pricing.
| Check | Why it matters | How to verify |
|---|---|---|
| Official release status | Old blog posts and forum threads often lag product reality. | Check xAI release notes dated January 28, 2026 before repeating older no-video claims. |
| Current model name | Search intent says FLUX, but the docs name the video model differently. | Confirm the model name "grok-imagine-video" in the xAI video docs and API examples. |
| Generation limits | Duration and resolution shape both format fit and spend. | The current docs describe 1–15 second generation with 480p or 720p output. Recheck before publishing hard numbers. |
| Editing constraints | Important if your workflow depends on video edits or extensions. | The current docs cap input videos for editing at 8.7 seconds and keep source duration/aspect ratio for edits. |
| Pricing path | Cost scales with duration and resolution, not just with a flat per-clip assumption. | Treat pricing as per-second in xAI docs, then compare that with live UlazAI package economics before volume tests. |

Examples and benchmark prompts
Use the same benchmark tasks across Grok, Veo, Kling, or Sora so you can compare capability, output quality and cost.
Benchmark task 1
Text-to-video launch shot
Run the same 8 to 10 second launch-style prompt across models and compare motion quality, prompt adherence, and total cost.
Benchmark task 2
Image-to-video animation
Use one still frame, one motion instruction, and one aspect ratio so you can separate animation quality from prompt variance.
Benchmark task 3
Edit or extension test
Take one source clip and measure how each stack handles edits, duration limits, and output consistency before you scale spend.
FAQ
Does Grok AI generate videos in 2026?
Yes. xAI release notes dated January 28, 2026 say Video Generation is available, and the docs list grok-imagine-video as the model name.
Does Grok use FLUX for video generation?
Current xAI video docs do not describe a generic FLUX video model. Treat FLUX as image-generation context and verify Grok video work under grok-imagine-video.
What limits are currently documented?
The current xAI docs describe 1 to 15 second generation, 480p or 720p output, and edited input videos capped at 8.7 seconds.
How is Grok Imagine video pricing described?
The current xAI docs describe video generation pricing as per-second pricing, so duration and resolution both affect total cost.
Can Grok generate videos with audio?
Do not budget around a generic claim. Check the current xAI video docs, model page, and sample outputs for audio support before you promise it in a production workflow.
What is the fastest next step if I want to test or buy?
Use the Grok guide for the commercial route, the packages page for live pricing, and the API docs if your real goal is integration.
