Introduction

What is Grok?

Grok is a family of Large Language Models (LLMs) developed by xAI.grok.cadn.net.cn

Inspired by the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Grok is a maximally truth-seeking AI that provides insightful, unfiltered truths about the universe.grok.cadn.net.cn

xAI offers an API for developers to programmatically interact with our Grok models.grok.cadn.net.cn

Unlock the Universe's Secrets

To access Grok models via API, you must create an xAI account and an API key. grok.cadn.net.cn

The xAI API is a toolkit for developers to integrate xAI's Grok models into their own applications.grok.cadn.net.cn

Unlike Grok on X, which is a conversational AI you interact with directly on the X platform, the xAI API is a DIY kit for developers to build AI-powered features into their own software. Essentially, Grok on X is a ready-to-use chatbot, while the xAI API provides the building blocks to create new AI experiences.grok.cadn.net.cn

To get started building with the xAI API, please head to The Hitchhiker's Guide to Grok.grok.cadn.net.cn
