AI SDK

xAI released Grok Imagine Image 2.0 on August 7 as the new Quality Mode on grok.com and mobile, ranked second worldwide on both text-to-image and image-editing leaderboards. A 2.0 preview build is already callable through Vercel's AI Gateway with the AI SDK, before xAI's own API access goes live.

Vercel AI Gateway gives you one API key and string model ids like moonshotai/kimi-k2.5 for hundreds of models. Here is how it works with the AI SDK, what BYOK and OIDC change, the honest tradeoffs, and who should actually use it.

The models.dev project is trending because AI teams need one boring source of truth for model specs, pricing, context windows, modalities, and tool support.
