About Sora
Sora was OpenAI's generative AI model capable of creating realistic and imaginative videos from text prompts or images, featuring synchronized audio and various styles. While the consumer web and mobile app were discontinued on April 26, 2026, the Sora 2 API remains available for existing integrations until its termination on September 24, 2026.
Why We Scored It 2/10
2/10
Sora was discontinued on April 26, 2026 due to lack of monetization and high computing costs, with API access ending September 2026. Despite initial technical promise with Sora 2, the complete discontinuation makes it barely functional for users.
