Grok Imagine Video 1.5 on AI Gateway

Grok Imagine Video 1.5 from xAI is now available on AI Gateway. The model generates video from an input image with synchronized audio in a single pass.

This release improves audio quality, prompt following, and photorealism. Face accuracy and character consistency are stronger across longer sequences, with better lighting and physical realism. Reference image support has been expanded to give more control over visual style and subject.

Use the model by setting it to xai/grok-imagine-video-1.5-preview in the AI SDK. You can chain an image model with Grok Imagine Video 1.5 to generate a still and animate it in one flow. Try this model directly in the AI Gateway Playground.

AI Gateway provides a unified API for calling models, tracking usage and cost, and configuring retries, failover, and performance optimizations. It includes built-in custom reporting, Zero Data Retention support, dynamic provider sorting by latency and cost, and more.
