Generate videos using OpenAI’s Sora 2 models through the Runcrate API. Sora 2 excels at realistic physics simulation, consistent object permanence, and cinematic camera work.
Sora API is being discontinued in September 2026. Plan migrations to Veo 3, Seedance, or Kling v3 before the deadline.

Available models


Basic text-to-video


Sora 2 Pro — production quality


Sora 2 vs. alternatives

Migration plan

The API shape is identical across all video models — changing the model parameter is the only code change needed:

Tips

  • Sora 2 excels at physical interactions — dominos, water, fabric, collisions.
  • Camera language works well — “tracking shot,” “dolly zoom,” “slow motion” are understood.
  • 12s is the maximum — for longer videos, generate multiple clips and stitch them.
  • Start with Sora 2 for drafts, use Sora 2 Pro for finals.
