Hero images, covers, campaign concepts, and high-quality scenes that need richer material, light, atmosphere, and detail.
1k and 2k use separate per-image tiers. Ratio and output format do not add another fee; see the live page price for the current amounts.
Standard is better for volume drafts and speed. Choose Quality when final-image material and detail matter more.
The text-to-image route does not. Use grok-imagine-quality/image-to-image for quality-tier editing.
Keep prompt, ratio, and format fixed, change only resolution, and save both 1k and 2k outputs.
