Access Grok Imagine Image 2.0 through EvoLink's unified image API. Test text-to-image, reference editing with 1–3 inputs, and 1K/2K output first.
Test output quality, estimate credit usage, and generate samples before you formally integrate.
Create image task
Fixed to grok-imagine-image-2.0Optional. Add 1-3 images to switch to editing mode. Each input image is billed once per request.
Results are kept for 24 hours — download anything you want to keep.
Pricing is a simple matrix of resolution (1K/2K) and quality (Low/Medium). Start from the cost of a single sample and pick a testing budget.
First Test Cost
Text-to-Image - 1K - Low - 1 image, no input imagesOne 1K Low prompt-only image
About 333 tests with $10 in credits.
In Playground, choose 1K resolution, Low quality and n = 1 with no input images. Start in 1K Low for drafts, then switch to Medium or 2K for the final check; input images add a per-image fee once per request.

Generate images from text or edit them with up to 3 reference images in one model. The mode switches automatically based on the number of input images, with matrix-priced Low/Medium quality and 1K/2K resolution, and up to 10 images per request.
grok-imagine-image-2.0One model covers text-to-image and reference editing: the mode switches by the number of input images, with Low/Medium quality, 1K/2K resolution, and up to 10 images per request.
These fields cover the main integration decisions. Open the API tab for the full request and response schema.
modelstringOne model ID for text-to-image and editing; the number of input images selects the mode.
promptstringDescribe the image or the edit; refer to references as <IMAGE_0>, <IMAGE_1>, <IMAGE_2>.
image_urlsarray0 images for text-to-image, 1-3 for editing. Input images are billed once per request.
sizestringauto or one of 13 aspect ratios such as 1:1, 16:9 or 9:16; custom pixel sizes are not accepted.
resolutionenum1K or 2K pixel tier. 2K raises the per-image rate.
qualityenumlow for fast drafts, medium for more detail. Combines freely with resolution.
ninteger1-10 images per request; the output rate is multiplied by n.
callback_urlstringHTTPS webhook that receives the task result instead of polling.
Use the EvoLink API for product integration and batch jobs, or call it from Codex, Claude, or Gemini for fast creative and development workflows. Both paths share the same EvoLink API key, balance, model routes, and task history.
Best for: product backends, batch jobs, automated workflows
Call EvoLink’s unified image API from your server and control the model ID, parameters, task queue, callbacks, and result storage.
Best for: creative and development tasks in Codex, Claude, and Gemini
Give the Agent your output goal, assets, and acceptance criteria. It can choose the route, assemble the request, track the task, and return the result without requiring you to hand-code every step.
This example shows the shortest runnable flow: create a task, save the returned task ID, then poll or wait for an HTTPS callback. Open the API tab for the complete parameter and response reference.

Check the Authorization bearer token and confirm the available balance and task billing in the console.
Review likeness rights, brand assets, readable text, sensitive content, and input-asset compliance.
A Grok Imagine Image 2.0 task that reaches a final failed state is not charged. Keep the task ID, inspect the final state, and identify whether the cause is validation, review, or execution before retrying.
callback_url must be a public HTTPS URL, not localhost or a private network address. Always keep the task ID as a polling fallback.

Use model ID grok-imagine-image-2.0. Send a prompt alone for text-to-image, or add 1-3 input images to switch to editing without a separate edit model ID.
quality (low/medium) controls generation effort and speed; resolution (1k/2k) controls output pixels. Both enter the price matrix - the four combinations are priced 1x / 1.5x / 1.5x / 2x of base.
Each input image adds 0.25x base per request, regardless of how many outputs you request with n. Failed tasks are not charged.
Review the current price and estimated credits before submitting a task, based on resolution, quality, output count, and reference images.
One API key works across Grok, Seedream, Nano Banana, GPT Image, video, audio, and LLM models.
Track credits, spending, and model usage in one console.
See whether an image task is submitted, processing, completed, or failed.
Generated images are re-hosted on EvoLink CDN so result links stay usable after the upstream links expire.
Compare Grok models under one EvoLink account and API key, then choose by modality, output quality, and cost.

Pricing is a matrix of resolution and quality: 1K Low is the base rate, 1K Medium and 2K Low are 1.5x, and 2K Medium is 2x. The output rate is multiplied by n, and each input image adds 0.25x base once per request.
Yes. Use the Playground to test output quality, estimate credits, and inspect the request JSON before wiring it into your product.
quality (low/medium) controls generation effort - low takes about 10s, medium 10-75s with better detail. resolution (1k/2k) controls output pixels. They are independent parameters and both affect the price.
Pass 1-3 image URLs in image_urls together with the prompt. The model switches to editing mode automatically. With multiple images, reference each one in the prompt as <IMAGE_0>, <IMAGE_1>, <IMAGE_2>.
Yes. n can be 1-10 in a single request. The output rate is multiplied by n, while input image fees are charged only once per request.
Yes. Each input image in image_urls adds 0.25x the base rate, charged once per request regardless of n. Only public http(s) URLs are accepted - base64 uploads are rejected.
No. size accepts 13 aspect-ratio presets plus auto. Custom WIDTHxHEIGHT values are not supported; resolution is controlled separately with the 1k/2k parameter.
Failed tasks are not charged - the full pre-authorized amount is refunded, including upstream rejections, content moderation blocks, and timeouts.
