Sora 2: Features, Specs and What to Use Instead
Sora 2 and Sora 2 Pro have been discontinued and are no longer available on getimg.ai.
OpenAI shut down its entire Sora line, so these models are gone everywhere. You can still create videos on getimg.ai with a wide range of current models from other companies.
Sora 2 is no longer available: here's what happened
OpenAI has discontinued its Sora line and closed the Sora API, so Sora 2 and Sora 2 Pro can no longer be selected on getimg.ai. The Sora app shut down in April 2026 and the API closed in September 2026.
getimg.ai offers a range of current video models from other companies for new projects. Everything below is kept as a reference for what Sora 2 was and how it worked.

The Sora timeline
Sora moved quickly through a few releases before it was retired:
- Sora (2024) was OpenAI's first video model. It produced longer clips with strong scene understanding, but the video was silent.
- Sora 2 and Sora 2 Pro (2025) added native audio and improved motion stability, object tracking, and prompt responsiveness.
- In 2026, OpenAI wound down the Sora product line and shut down both the app and the API.

AI video models to use instead
getimg.ai hosts a broad lineup of video models with native audio, so you can pick up where Sora 2 left off.
Google Veo 3.1 and Gemini Omni
Google's current video models generate clips with native audio, first- and last-frame control, and output up to 1080p.
Kling and Seedance
Both handle cinematic motion and native audio, with longer clip lengths and reference-image support for more control.
FLUX 3, MiniMax H3, and more
The lineup keeps growing, so you can match the look and length your project needs across many models.

What Sora 2 could generate
Sora 2 turned a written prompt, or a prompt plus a starting image, into a short clip with native audio. It covered a wide range of looks, from cinematic and documentary footage to cartoon and commercial styles, with camera movement, mood, and action driven by the prompt. Creators used it for social clips, ad concepts, and quick teasers.
Sora 2 resolution, duration and formats
On getimg.ai, Sora 2 generated 720p video and Sora 2 Pro generated 1080p, both at 30 FPS. Clips could be 4, 8, or 12 seconds long, in 16:9 landscape or 9:16 vertical, with native audio throughout. Prompts could run up to 10,000 characters, leaving room for full dialogue and shot breakdowns.
Text to Video
From a prompt to a finished clip
From a short line or a detailed shot list, Sora 2 produced a matching clip with synced audio. You described the action, mood, and style, and the model handled the motion and sound. It worked with casual prompts and precise direction alike.
Image to Video
From a still image to full motion
In Image to Video mode, you uploaded a picture and Sora 2 used it as the starting point, then built the motion and audio from there. A photo or illustration became a short animated clip that followed your prompt.
