## About the Tool

Sora is OpenAI's video-generation model and product family for creating cinematic clips from prompts, images, and creative direction. Historically, Sora was used for text-to-video creation, storyboarding, remixing, blending, and prompt-driven visual exploration inside OpenAI's creative ecosystem.

This listing needs a major buyer caution. OpenAI's help center says the Sora web and app experiences were discontinued on April 26, 2026, and the Sora API will be discontinued on September 24, 2026. Users should not evaluate Sora as a normal active self-serve video product without checking the current OpenAI access path first.

The strongest remaining value of this page is informational: Sora remains important for people researching OpenAI video generation, legacy Sora exports, historical AI video capabilities, and how OpenAI handled Sora credits and retirement. Existing users may still need export, refund, or credit-transfer guidance from OpenAI's help center.

For FutureStack, Sora still belongs in Video because it is a major AI video brand, but the listing should be honest that the standalone web/app experience is discontinued. It is best for research, comparison, and legacy Sora context rather than a fresh recommendation to buy.
