Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite generates video from text or an input image, with resolution-based pricing on the xAI API.
The specification score summarizes recorded features and limits. It is not a benchmark result.
Recorded modality support shows what this model can accept and produce. An undocumented modality is shown as unknown rather than assumed to be unsupported.

Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite generates video from text or an input image, with resolution-based pricing on the xAI API.
Lite is a useful candidate for visual drafts and repeated short-shot experiments. The model page lists text and image inputs and video output. Its API rates are $0.02 per output second at 480p, $0.03 at 720p and $0.14 at 1080p, with a separate $0.01 image input charge. Choose the resolution your workflow actually needs before estimating a project budget.
Start with a short brief specifying the subject, motion, camera position and desired opening image. Test one stable product shot, one moving subject and one scene with several objects. Look for temporal consistency across the clip, rather than judging only the first frame. Record how many generations are needed before a usable shot reaches the editor.
Video generation runs as an asynchronous job. Keep the request identifier, poll for the result and distinguish a failed task from a completed clip. Match the endpoint and request mode to the selected model; an example written for a different Grok video model may accept inputs Lite does not document. Keep ordinary text-token pricing empty in comparisons, since this service bills video duration and image inputs instead.
Compare the model on the work you need to complete.
Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite is listed for Image-text-to-video, Text-to-video. It accepts text, image and produces video. Use the publisher’s input format and preprocessing for your chosen deployment.
Choose duration, resolution and frame rate together. Compare the cost of an accepted clip, including repeat generations.
Use the model identifier and account requirements for the selected API route. Confirm its request limits and output format with one complete task before connecting a larger workflow.
These records share a directory category. Check the source card, output type and deployment requirements before treating a model as a replacement.
