How is Sora 2 different from Sora 1?

Sora 2 feels like the GPT-3.5 leap for video. You get synced audio, sharper physics, longer clips (up to 20 seconds), richer realism, and a storyboard flow for shot-by-shot direction.

Which formats and resolutions can I export?

Export up to 1080p full HD for as long as 20 seconds. Aspect ratios include 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for TikTok or Stories, and 1:1 for feeds. Every render ships with synchronized audio and watermarking.

How does the audio generation work?

Audio is created in lockstep with the visuals—dialogue, effects, and background tracks are composed in real time so everything stays glued together.

What can I do with the storyboard feature?

Stamp timestamps, add text direction, or drop in references for each moment. It's built to help you plan scenes and iterate quickly.

How accurate is the physics simulation?

Sora 2 respects real-world forces. Think believable rebounds, splashes, shadows, and camera motion instead of stretchy or morphing objects.

Can I work with images?

Yes. Upload starting frames, style guides, or assets to animate, extend, or remix with synchronized audio.

How long does it take to render?

Most generations finish in three to ten minutes depending on length, resolution, and prompt complexity.

Can I use Sora 2 commercially?

You own commercial rights to what you create—perfect for campaigns, social, film projects, or client work. Outputs include watermarking for provenance.
