From our tests

Strengths and limits

  • Cinematic, high-contrast images with strong colour — the Mars and neon-street shots are typical.
  • Natural, warm photo portraits.
  • Wide ratio choice, down to phone-tall 9:20 on Image 2.0.
  • The original Grok Imagine Image is one of the cheapest closed models at 6.6 credits.
  • One reference image on Image 2.0 on Kenerate (Quality takes 3) — xAI's own app takes up to 5.
  • Less precise with dense text than GPT Image 2.
  • Closed model: xAI's filter applies to prompts.

On Kenerate, Grok Imagine runs through xAI's API with xAI's own content rules. For adult art with open models, see the uncensored AI image generator (18+).
