Why Creators Choose Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite
The most affordable member of the Grok Imagine Video 1.5 line-up: audio is baked in, output reaches 1080p, and every render stays confidential on Venice.
- Entry Point of the 1.5 Line-UpxAI slots it beneath the flagship Grok Imagine 1.5 as the budget-friendly option in the family, and it has been live on Venice since September 30, 2026.
- Text and Image Variants Under One ModelTwo model ids ship together — grok-imagine-1-5-lite-text-to-video and grok-imagine-1-5-lite-image-to-video — letting you write a scene from nothing or bring an existing photo to life through the app or the Venice API.
- Zero Retention by DesignIt runs on Venice's private tier, which stores nothing: your prompts and uploaded stills are never archived, never profiled and never folded into a training set, and no generation log is linked back to you.
Running Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite in Three Steps
Follow three short steps and Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite hands you a finished clip with audio, generated privately on Venice.
What Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite Can Do
Sound rendered in the same pass, resolutions from 480p through 1080p, second-by-second duration control and no data retained on Venice.
Sound Baked into Every Frame
Ambience, effects and spoken lines land with the picture in one generation, timed to what happens on screen — no separate audio pass to build afterwards.
Three Resolutions, One-Second Precision
Pick 480p, 720p or 1080p and set any length between 1 and 15 seconds in one-second steps on either variant — fine-grained control that is rare at this price.
Bring One Still to Life
Turn an existing product photo, portrait or illustration into up to 15 seconds of 1080p motion by describing how it should move, not by re-describing what it shows.
Steadier, More Believable Motion
According to xAI's release notes, the 1.5 generation shows fewer warps and conveys weight and momentum more convincingly across a clip than the version before it.
Call It from Your Own Code
Venice publishes the model over a REST API, so a single request carrying the model id and your inputs is enough to queue a render straight from your own application.
Nothing Kept, Nothing Linked to You
Prompts and source images are not stored, profiled or used for training, and no personal generation history is created — unlike the account-linked libraries xAI itself keeps.
Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite: Questions Answered
Answers to the questions people ask most about generating with Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite privately on Venice.
What is Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite, exactly?
It is the lightest tier in xAI's Grok Imagine Video 1.5 family. Venice has hosted it since September 30, 2026, in text-to-video and image-to-video flavours, at 480p, 720p or 1080p, for 1 to 15 seconds, with audio generated natively.
How much does each clip cost, and is a subscription needed?
Pricing is per clip and rises with resolution and length: $0.04 for a 480p one-second clip, $0.05 at 720p and $0.18 at 1080p, all the way up to 15 seconds. There is no subscription, and new Venice accounts receive a free daily allowance plus 500 welcome credits.
Can I self-host it or download the weights?
No. The model is proprietary to xAI and no weights have been published, so self-hosting and fine-tuning are off the table. On Venice you can test it with welcome credits before paying per clip; if open weights matter to you, Wan 2.7 Enhanced is the nearest alternative that also produces native audio.
Does it work with a single uploaded photo?
Yes. The grok-imagine-1-5-lite-image-to-video variant sets a still in motion at 480p, 720p or 1080p for 1–15 seconds with audio, while grok-imagine-1-5-lite-text-to-video builds a clip from a written prompt on its own.
What separates this tier from the flagship Grok Imagine 1.5?
Both run privately on Venice at 1080p for up to 15 seconds with native audio. The flagship goes further, accepting up to seven image references plus voice references so a character's face and voice stay consistent across scenes; the Lite tier works from a prompt or one still.
What happens to my prompts and uploads?
Everything is processed on the private tier, which retains nothing: prompts and reference stills are not archived, not profiled and not reused for training, and no history is tied to your identity — in keeping with Venice's encrypted-in-browser, decentralized architecture.
