Grok Imagine generated 1.245 billion videos in the 30 days leading up to its 1.0 release in early February 2026. That release bumped the model to 720p, 10-second clips, and dramatically better native audio. With OpenAI’s Sora 2 winding down by September 24, 2026, Grok Imagine now sits next to Google Veo 3.1 and Kling 3.0 as the dominant video APIs going forward, and it is the cheapest of the three. What separates a usable Grok Imagine clip from a wasted credit is almost always the prompt. This guide is the working prompt manual for Grok imagine video generation: the formula that produces clean output, 20 ready-to-paste examples across the […]

Grok Imagine Spicy Mode is xAI’s opt-in adult-content tier inside the Grok Imagine image and video generator. Since launching on August 4, 2025, it has been the most permissive feature shipped by any major AI lab. It allows partial nudity, suggestive scenes, and what xAI describes as “bolder cinematic tones,” but it is not a porn generator. Elon Musk publicly clarified the standard on March 12, 2026: “If it’s allowed in an R-rated movie, it’s allowed in Grok Imagine.” That single line is the cleanest way to think about it. Spicy Mode sits above standard image and video generation, below explicit content, and is fenced in by paid subscriptions, age […]

Grok Imagine is the fastest AI video generator most people can actually use right now. It takes a text prompt, a voice command, or a still photo and turns it into a short video with synchronized audio in roughly 17 seconds. That’s faster than Sora 2 or Veo 3.1 by a wide margin. xAI launched it on July 28, 2025 and shipped Grok Imagine 1.0 on February 1, 2026, raising the cap to 10-second clips at 720p with dramatically better sound. This guide covers what Grok Imagine actually is, the five workflows it supports, and how to access it on the web and on your phone. You’ll also see what […]

xAI just rolled Grok 4.3 out to the full API on April 30, 2026, two weeks after a $300/month beta locked behind SuperGrok Heavy. The bigger story is the price reset. Grok 4.3 now runs at $1.25 per million input tokens and $2.50 per million output tokens, an input cut of roughly 40% and an output cut closer to 60% versus Grok 4.20. It scores 53 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, slotting just above Claude Sonnet 4.6 and well below GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.7, and Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview. This Grok 4.3 review covers what actually changed since the April beta, where Grok now stands against the other frontier […]

xAI now sells Grok across six consumer tiers plus a separate developer API, and the price spread between them is huge. The free tier costs $0, X Premium is $8 per month, SuperGrok Lite is $10 per month, SuperGrok is $30 per month, X Premium+ is $40 per month, and SuperGrok Heavy sits at the top at $300 per month. On the API side, the new flagship Grok 4.3 runs $1.25 per million input tokens and $2.50 per million output tokens at a 1M token context window, with Grok 4.20 still available at $2.00 / $6.00 and Grok 4.1 Fast as low as $0.20 / $0.50 per million. This guide […]

Update, April 23, 2026: The competitive picture for Grok 5 just moved. OpenAI released GPT-5.5 on April 23, 2026, with an Intelligence Index of 59 (second only to Grok 5 on current leaks), 88.7% on SWE-bench Verified, and 60% fewer hallucinations than GPT-5.4. Grok 5 now needs to beat GPT-5.5 — not GPT-5.4 — to hold xAI’s claim to the #1 spot on the Intelligence Index. For the full GPT-5.5 breakdown, read OpenAI Releases GPT-5.5.

Update — May 2, 2026: Read our new Grok 4.3 review. ChatGPT now runs on GPT-5.5, launched on April 23, 2026, while Grok is powered by Grok 4.3 (released April 30, 2026) and the older Grok 4.20 from xAI. Both chatbots have evolved significantly over the past year, and picking between them is no longer as simple as “ChatGPT is the default.” Grok has grown from 1.9% US market share to 17.8% in just 12 months, while ChatGPT still dominates with over 900 million weekly active users and roughly 64.5% global market share. So which one should you actually use? We compared Grok vs ChatGPT across benchmarks, pricing, coding, writing, […]

You probably have one of the most powerful productivity tools ever created sitting right in your pocket – artificial intelligence. Whether it’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, or any other AI assistant, these tools can handle tasks that would normally take you hours. Yet most people try them once or twice, get disappointing results, and give up thinking AI isn’t worth the hype. If you’ve asked ChatGPT to “help with work stuff” or “how to make my life easier” and received generic, unhelpful responses, you’re not alone. The reason is that these tools need specific, well-structured instructions to give you genuinely useful results. Ask vaguely, and you’ll get vague answers. Ask specifically, […]

Today, November 17, 2025, xAI has officially rolled out Grok 4.1, the latest iteration of its flagship large language model, across grok.com, the 𝕏 interface, and the iOS and Android apps. The update arrives after a two-week silent production test and aims to deliver more natural conversation, stronger emotional intelligence, tighter safety controls, and dramatically improved real-world reliability. Unlike typical incremental updates, Grok 4.1 represents a noticeable shift in how xAI tunes and deploys its models: it introduces deeper reinforcement learning on style, personality, and alignment, while preserving the factual accuracy and reasoning depth Grok 4 was known for. Below is everything you need to know — benchmarks, new capabilities, safety upgrades, and how […]
