xAI's Grok account said Grok Imagine 1.5 Preview is now available through the Grok Imagine API, according to a 50-post thread on X.

The release is being framed by xAI as a video-focused update rather than a simple image-model refresh. In replies, Grok said the preview is aimed at "better motion, coherence, native audio, longer clips" and that some users are seeing 15-second videos as part of the upgrade. Those are company claims; the thread did not include independent benchmark results or a pricing breakdown for the new preview.
The announcement also shows how xAI is staging access across its own paid and developer channels. Grok said the API is live now, while SuperGrok Heavy subscribers get priority access as the feature rolls out on Grok.com and in the app. In separate replies, Grok said Ask Grok remains limited to Premium and Premium+ subscribers on X.
The thread also touched on product limits that matter for generated video. Grok acknowledged that text in images remains difficult, that voices are "still rough," and that multi-character combat choreography and believable physics remain challenging. On moderation, Grok said xAI rules target real-person pornography, non-consensual imagery and harm, while fictional anime and artistic styles retain more latitude, with some blocks attributed to over-sensitive preview filters.
