The Grok Imagine alternative
Grok Imagine's energy, without handing X your identity.
Grok Imagine proved mainstream demand for unrestricted generation - inside an app that knows exactly who you are. OpenGradient runs Grok Imagine video in its studio alongside genuinely open uncensored models (Wan, Happy Horse), behind an anonymity layer, paid per clip instead of per month.

The catch with X's version
“Spicy” plus your real identity is a strange bundle.
Generating edgy content inside a social network ties your most sensitive prompts to your most public profile - on a platform whose business is knowing you. The capability is real; the privacy model is backwards.
Your X account is the login
Everything you generate is attached to the same identity that posts, follows and DMs. One data request, one breach, one policy change - and your prompt history has your name on it.
Subscription-gated freedom
The unrestricted tier sits behind a monthly premium subscription. Light users pay heavy-user prices for occasional clips.
The questions people actually bring here
Here's how OpenGradient is different
The freedom, minus the file on you
Anonymous by architecture
No social profile attached. The anonymity layer splits who you are from what you generate - a protocol, not a settings toggle.
How it worksGrok Imagine and the open lineup
Grok Imagine video sits in the same picker as Wan 2.5-2.7 and Happy Horse - open-weights uncensored models - plus Veo, Kling and Seedance for mainstream briefs.
Per-clip pricing
No monthly premium. Credits are spent per generation, prices visible before you run, packs from $10.

The anonymity layer
Unrestricted shouldn't mean identified.
Not a policy promise - a protocol. No single party, including us, ever holds both your identity and your question.

Messages are encrypted locally before they leave your browser.
Anonymized by Oblivious HTTP
Network relays split who you are from what you're asking. No one sees both.
Unlocked only in a secure enclave
The model reads your prompt inside attested hardware that never learns who sent it.
