- Qwen-Image 2.1 vs Grok Imagine vs Nano Banana 2.1 - On LLMTR all five models generate and edit images with the same API key. In a single-reference edit Qwen-Image 2.1 Turbo costs $0.016 per generated image and the reference you send is not billed. On Grok Imagine the image you send is counted too, and 4K output is only on Nano Banana 2.1.
- xAI API Images: aspect_ratio, Grok Imagine and b64_json - Use POST /v1/images/generations with xai/grok-imagine-image-quality, pass aspect_ratio and resolution, choose b64_json, decode data[0].b64_json, and save the image. Quality costs $0.05 per image; the standard model costs $0.02.
- Grok Image Editing: What Is the Image ID Format? - Grok image editing has no separate image ID. On LLMTR, POST /v1/images/edits accepts URL inputs or base64 data:image/ values, with image for one image and images for 1-5 references. Model prices are $0.02 and $0.05 per image.
