Quick answer

Grok spicy mode is a mature setting in Grok Imagine, xAI's image and video generator — the Imagine page lists a mode called Spicy, marked as mature. xAI's terms say 18+ content may not be available until it can confirm a user is 18 or over, and its acceptable use policy bans sexual depictions of real people and anything sexualizing children. xAI hasn't published which plans or regions get spicy mode. The alternative on Kenerate: adults 18+ animate a start image with the Spicy models — Wan 3 Spicy (up to 30 s with sound), Wan 2.7 Spicy (up to 1080p) or Seedance 2.5 Spicy (up to 4K).

  • Test on Spicy V1 before a long render.
  • Use an end frame to land the final pose.

Rules and privacy

Spicy video is for adults 18+, about fictional adults.

  • 18+ and fictional adults only

    Adult prompts are for adults. Every character you create must be a fictional adult.

  • Blocked and not allowed

    Kenerate's prompt filter blocks prompts involving minors on every model, and it can't be switched off. Sexual images of real people aren't allowed.

  • Blurred by default

    Results flagged as adult are shown blurred in your gallery grid.

  • Private switch

    Turn on Private in Advanced settings to keep a generation out of the public feed.

Make the start image first — then animate it with the model that fits the shot.

In depth

Grok Spicy Mode, explained

What the models can do, how to prompt them, and what isn't allowed.

Grok Imagine in one line

xAI released Imagine Video 1.5 on 16 June 2026 and added references, text to video and native 1080p on 31 July 2026. Its API makes 1–15 second clips at up to 1080p, with audio.

What xAI publishes about spicy mode

Very little — no help page describes it. The Imagine page marks the Spicy mode as mature, and the terms say 18+ content may be withheld until a user is confirmed to be 18 or over.

The rule both share

xAI bans sexual depictions of real people and anything sexualizing children. Kenerate's Spicy models follow the same line: fictional adults only.
