Sora
OpenAI's text-to-video AI model that generates realistic video clips from text prompts, images, or existing video.
What is Sora?
Sora is OpenAI's text-to-video AI model that turns text descriptions into video clips up to 20 seconds long.
You type a prompt like "a woman walking through neon-lit Tokyo streets" and it generates a matching video with realistic motion, lighting, and details.
Most builders use it through the Sora web interface to create product demos, social content, or prototype video concepts. It handles complex scenes with multiple characters and understands how objects move in physical space.
Available with ChatGPT Plus ($20/month) or Pro ($200/month). The Pro tier gets you higher resolution, longer videos, and more generations per month.
