Notice — Service Stability

The Sora 2 family is currently unstable. Generations may fall back to alternative models without notice and the service can be temporarily unavailable. OpenAI is also expected to discontinue this model in the future.

If you need an equally capable, stable alternative, we recommend Seedance 2: bytedance/seedance-2.0/image-to-video.
