Image GenerationReference EditingxAI API

Grok Image provides xAI’s grok-imagine-image model through APIXO for prompt-based generation and single-reference image transformation. It combines natural-language creative direction with photorealistic and stylized output, while APIXO adds three framing options, six outputs for text-to-image requests, asynchronous delivery, and straightforward per-request pricing.

Six Directions at Once

Explore multiple visual options from every text prompt

APIXO returns six images from each Grok Image text-to-image request, making the endpoint useful for rapid visual exploration. Direct the subject, composition, lighting, palette, mood, and style in natural language, then compare alternatives before selecting a direction for refinement or production.

Capabilities

Focused controls for fast creative exploration

Prompt-Based Creation

Generate original images by describing the desired subject, environment, composition, lighting, color, and mood. This supports both concise requests and more detailed creative briefs without requiring separate style presets.

Single-Image Guidance

APIXO’s image-to-image mode combines a prompt with one reference image. Use the source to guide a transformation while explaining the new appearance, setting, composition, or creative treatment in natural language.

Photorealistic Scenes

Use prompts to explore photographic, illustrative, abstract, and concept-driven visual directions. Review fine details and production accuracy before publishing.

Broad Style Range

Prompt for illustration, abstract artwork, concept art, polished renders, or photographic treatments. Style, lighting, palette, and atmosphere can be combined in the brief to establish a specific visual direction.

Placement-Ready Framing

APIXO exposes square 1:1, landscape 3:2, and portrait 2:3 aspect ratios. These options cover common product tiles, editorial images, social placements, presentations, and campaign compositions.

Multi-Option Ideation

Each APIXO text-to-image request returns six generated images. Compare different interpretations of one prompt without configuring an output-count parameter or submitting six separate tasks.

Campaign Ideation

Compare Creative Directions

Turn a campaign brief into six visual interpretations per APIXO text-to-image request. Teams can compare composition, subject treatment, lighting, and atmosphere before investing time in detailed art direction or downstream design.

Grok Image Product and Lifestyle Concepts
Product Marketing

Product and Lifestyle Concepts

Create product mockups, promotional scenes, landing-page imagery, and lifestyle concepts in square, landscape, or portrait framing. Explicitly describe materials, environment, camera treatment, palette, and intended audience for more useful variations.

Grok Image Illustrations and Story Concepts
Editorial Design

Illustrations and Story Concepts

Explore stylized editorial images, narrative scenes, abstract artwork, and concept art. Grok Image’s natural-language direction supports varied aesthetics, although critical text and recurring character details should be reviewed before publication.

Grok Image Reference-Led Restyling
Asset Iteration

Reference-Led Restyling

Use one existing image as the starting point for a new style, mood, environment, or composition. This is suited to directional iteration; APIXO’s public schema does not expose masks or multi-reference compositing on this endpoint.

APIXO constraints

01

A prompt and one of the three supported aspect ratios are required for every request.

02

APIXO text-to-image requests return six images and are billed once per request.

03

APIXO image-to-image mode requires one reference image URL and is also billed per request.

04

The public APIXO schema does not expose masks, seeds, style presets, resolution selection, or output-format controls.

05

APIXO delivers results asynchronously through status polling or a callback to a public HTTPS URL.

06

Prompts, reference images, and generated results remain subject to provider safety, moderation, and access requirements.

Grok Image questions

APIXO identifies the provider as xAI, and the corresponding standard upstream model is grok-imagine-image, with the official dated alias grok-imagine-image-2026-03-02. This page does not cover Grok Imagine Quality Mode, Grok video models, or Grok language models.

APIXO exposes an image-to-image workflow that accepts one reference image and a text instruction. It supports reference-guided transformation, but the documented endpoint does not provide a separate mask field, multi-image input, or dedicated region-selection control.

APIXO documents six outputs for text-to-image requests. No output-count control is exposed in its public schema. APIXO does not publicly specify the same six-image behavior for image-to-image requests, so that output quantity should not be assumed.

Not through the publicly documented APIXO controls for grok-image. The endpoint exposes mode, prompt, aspect ratio, delivery type, and a conditional reference-image field, but no resolution or output-format selector.

Check embedded text, anatomy, object relationships, brand details, and consistency across independently generated images. Character continuity and exact typography are not documented guarantees for this endpoint and may require prompt refinement or downstream editing.
