xAI has released a no-code voice agent builder with voice cloning and made its video generation AI Grok Imagine Video 1.5 generally available, alongside a faster variant.

Synthesized from 3 Yomimono stories · updated Jul 2

xAI released Voice Agent Builder on July 1, 2026, a no-code tool for building voice agents using the Grok Voice Think Fast 1.0 model. The tool offers over 80 preset voice tones and the ability to clone a voice from two minutes of audio. It can integrate with external services like Notion and Gmail for automated call center tasks.

Earlier in June, xAI made its video generation AI Grok Imagine Video 1.5 generally available through the Imagine API, retiring the preview version. The company also launched Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Fast, a model that generates a 6-second 720p clip in about 25 seconds, nearly halving the time of the previous model. The fast model is available in the web, iOS, and Android versions of Grok.

These releases show xAI expanding its AI tools from text and image generation into voice and video, with a focus on lowering technical barriers for users. The voice agent builder removes the need for coding, while the video model's faster variant aims to make production more practical.
