Image 2.0

Imagine Image 2.0 is now generally available as the new Quality Mode on grok.com/imagine, and our iOS and Android apps.

We built Image 2.0 around a simple goal: make images you can use in real work. 2.0 follows instructions closely, down to the details. It plans typography and layout the way a designer would, so dense, multi-part visuals hold together and small text comes out sharp. And it preserves what you put in across generations and edits.

Real work is iterative. The first generation is rarely the final asset, so Image 2.0 adds tools for changing exactly what you mean and nothing else.

The magic wand edits the region you point at and leaves the rest untouched. Segmentation selects precise areas of the image to change. Background removal exports any subject with a transparent background, ready to drop into other work. Multi-ref editing accepts up to 5 input images in a single generation, removing the need for manual compositing.

One image, any size: pick a ratio and the model fills in the frame.

Image 2.0 was trained for fidelity across photography, design, and illustration, with editing treated as a first-class capability. It ranks second in the world in both text-to-image generation and image editing.

We're also introducing new templates, which package common image workflows into ready-made starting points. Each one covers a specific task - photo editing, product shots, headshots, icons, game assets, and more - with the workflow already configured, so you supply the inputs and get a finished result.

One world from a handful of prompts: a character, her locations, and the props she carries - generated separately, holding one style from image to image.

API access is coming soon.
