What is Grok 2 Image?

Grok 2 Image turns a natural-language text prompt into vivid, realistic images.
It’s xAI’s flagship image generation model, tuned for marketing creatives, social posts, product visuals, concept art, and more.

In the API, you use the grok-2-image. A single request can generate multiple images, making it easy to explore variations on a single idea.

Why it looks great

• Photorealistic, high-fidelity imagery
  Trained to produce detailed textures, convincing lighting, and sharp compositions that work well for ads, hero images, and product renders.

• Strong prompt following
  Optimized for following descriptive prompts closely, capturing objects, layouts, and styles specified in your text while minimizing “prompt drift.”

• Flexible visual styles
  Handles realistic photography, digital illustration, stylized artwork, and concept sketches, making it useful for storyboards, thumbnails, and creative exploration.

• Multi-image generation in one shot
  A single request can generate up to 10 JPG images, so you can explore multiple creative directions from one prompt.

• Competitive per-image pricing
  Images are billed per output image, keeping costs predictable for batch runs and A/B creative testing.

• Prompt refinement under the hood
  Before reaching the image model, your text prompt can be lightly revised by a chat model to improve clarity, often leading to more accurate results without extra work on your side.

Pricing

• Billing is based on the number of images generated.

• Each image will cost $0.07.

How to Use

1. Write your prompt

   • Describe the subject, scene, style, and mood, for example:
     • “ultra-wide shot of a neon city at night, rainy streets, cinematic”
     • “product photo of wireless earbuds on a marble surface, soft studio lighting”

2. Send the generation job

   • Call the image API with model: “grok-2-image” (or grok-2-image-1212) and your prompt.
   • Optionally specify how many variations to generate (up to 10 images per request).

3. Download or display the results

   • The API returns JPG images via URLs or encoded data, which you can save, display in an app, or feed into downstream editing/compositing tools.

Note

• Output format:
  Images are returned in JPG format.

• Per-job limits:

  • Up to 10 images per request
  • Additional throughput limits depend on your account/plan.

• Prompt tips:

  • Be concrete about objects, layout, and style (e.g., “centered product on plain background”).
  • Avoid contradictory instructions in a single prompt.
  • Iterate: start simple, then gradually add details once you like the base composition.
