Overview

Freshness note: Model capabilities, limits, and availability can change quickly. This profile is a point-in-time snapshot last verified on May 8, 2026.

grok-imagine-video-1212 is an older Grok Imagine video-generation identifier retained here for legacy reference. xAI’s current models and pricing page now lists grok-imagine-video as the relevant Imagine API video model ID.

Capabilities

Historically, this model was designed for prompt-driven video generation and creative motion ideation. New integrations should use grok-imagine-video instead.

Technical Details

This is a video-native model, so token-based context and max-output metrics are not first-order limits. In this repository, those fields are set to 0 and treated as N/A.

Pricing & Access

xAI’s current public pricing card lists grok-imagine-video at $0.05 per second. Always verify current usage limits, billing units, and availability in official xAI docs.

Best Use Cases

Best used for auditing older API-backed video flows that still mention the 1212 identifier. For new rapid video concept generation and media experimentation pipelines, use the current Grok Imagine video route.

Comparisons

Compared with Sora 2 and Veo 3, this model is often selected for xAI ecosystem continuity. Final provider choice should be driven by output quality tests on your actual shot styles and latency targets.
