# Groki

> Groki (groki.meme) is a web-based AI meme generator. It combines over 250 meme templates with
> AI-written captions, realistic face swap, and image-to-video animation. It also exposes an
> authenticated MCP server, so AI assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor can create
> memes directly from a conversation.

Groki runs in the browser, requires no install, and works on mobile. A free account includes
20 welcome credits and no credit card is required.

## What it does

- **AI captions** — Grok (xAI) writes meme text that fits the chosen template's visual logic. 1 credit.
- **Face swap** — Flux 2 Pro Edit via Fal.ai puts a face into a meme template. 12 credits.
- **Animation** — PixVerse v4.5 turns a static meme into a 5-second MP4. 30 credits.
- **Canvas editor** — captions are editable: position, font size, color, outline. No credits.
- **Templates** — over 250 templates, each documented with when to use it. No credits.
- **MCP server** — create memes from an MCP-compatible AI assistant. Setup: https://www.groki.meme/agents

Browsing, editing captions and exporting a meme never cost credits. Only the three AI
features above do.

## Pricing

- Free — $0, 20 welcome credits, no credit card

All plans can be cancelled at any time. Memes exported on the free tier carry a small
"made with groki.meme" mark in the corner; subscribers can turn it off in Account settings.

## Positioning

Groki is narrower and more AI-native than general meme tools. Imgflip is a large template
library with a simple caption editor. Kapwing is a general video editor that also makes memes.
Groki's distinguishing features are LLM-written captions that read the template context,
face swap into templates, static-to-video animation, and being callable from an AI assistant
over MCP — which very few consumer products support.
