Let the man in the Figure sits at a cluttered desk in a dimly lit office, surrounded by stacks of papers, half-empty coffee cups, and a blinking computer monitor. He wears a worn gray button-up shirt and dark trousers, with one hand resting on the keyboard and the other gripping a pen. His expression is weary but focused, eyes fixed on the screen as if deep in thought or solving a complex problem. Natural light filters through blinds, casting soft shadows across the room. The office has a lived-in feel—posters on the wall, a water bottle on the desk, and a faint smell of stale coffee. Medium shot, eye-level perspective, realistic lighting, detailed textures, naturalistic atmosphere.

Grok Imagine Image Edit API — Quick start
Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/x-ai/grok-imagine-image/edit with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to completed, then read the output URL from data.outputs[0]. Examples for Grok Imagine Image Edit below.
HTTP example
# Submit the prediction
curl -X POST "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/x-ai/grok-imagine-image/edit" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY" \
-d '{
"prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
"image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg"
}'
# Response includes a prediction id. Poll for the result:
curl -X GET "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/predictions/{request_id}/result" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY"
# When status is "completed", read the output from data.outputs[0].Node.js example
// npm install wavespeed
const WaveSpeed = require('wavespeed');
const client = new WaveSpeed(); // reads WAVESPEED_API_KEY from env
const result = await client.run("x-ai/grok-imagine-image/edit", {
"prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
"image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg"
});
console.log(result.outputs[0]); // → URL of the generated outputPython example
# pip install wavespeed
import wavespeed
output = wavespeed.run(
"x-ai/grok-imagine-image/edit",
{
"prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
"image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg"
}
)

What is the Grok Imagine Image Edit API?
Grok Imagine Image Edit is a xAI model for image editing, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. X-AI Grok Imagine Image enables precise image editing with xAI's Grok Imagine model. Transform and modify images using text prompts with AI-powered precision. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.
How do I call the Grok Imagine Image Edit API?
POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to "completed", then read the output URL from the result. The playground generates a ready-to-paste code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for whatever inputs you've set. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/x-ai/x-ai-grok-imagine-image-edit.
How much does Grok Imagine Image Edit cost per run?
Grok Imagine Image Edit starts at $0.025 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.
What inputs does Grok Imagine Image Edit accept?
Key inputs: `prompt`, `image`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/x-ai/x-ai-grok-imagine-image-edit.
How long does Grok Imagine Image Edit take to generate?
Average end-to-end generation time on WaveSpeedAI is around 15 seconds per request — measured across recent runs. Queue time scales with global demand; live status is visible in the prediction record.
Can I use Grok Imagine Image Edit outputs commercially?
Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (xAI). The license summary appears on the model card above; see WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service for platform-level conditions.
