Grok Video
Short clips with the signature Grok aesthetic — for teasers and offbeat social media inserts
About the model
Grok Video is xAI’s video generator from the same family as Grok Imagine. It creates short clips with a recognizable aesthetic that stands apart from other models’ default style.
Reach for Grok Video when you need a clip with real character — say, teasers and short social media inserts where an unconventional look matters. For long cinematic scenes with motion physics and synced audio, consider Seedance 2.0; for clips with speech and effects, Kling 2.6.
