Quality tiers in VideoGen

Low

The fastest and most affordable tier, built for drafts and quick iteration.

Standard

The balanced default: good quality images at an everyday cost.

High

Premium quality images for the content you publish.

Max

MAX always integrates the state of the art. Grok Imagine Image is part of that set.

Every quality tier routes each request to the best model based on our internal evals, compliance requirements, and your intent. Requests stay fully compliant at every tier: sensitive data is never routed to models hosted by foreign adversaries such as China.
