OpenAI’s Sora AI video generator is here – how to try it

Both ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers can access Sora with varying limitations. With the ChatGPT Plus subscription, which costs $20 per month, users can generate up to 50 videos per month at 480p resolution or fewer videos at 720p.

With the recently unveiled Pro Plan, which costs $200 per month, users get “10x more usage, higher resolutions, and longer durations,” OpenAI said. Other paid subscribers, such as ChatGPT Enterprise, Team, and Edu users, do not have Sora access included in their plans. 

OpenAI shares that it is working on a tailored pricing model for different types of users, which will be available next year. The company also plans to expand access, which is available everywhere ChatGPT, with the exception of the UK, Switzerland, and the European Economic Area, in the coming months. 

OpenAI also shared a video on how to get started with the new model. 

When you go to sign in or create an account on the Sora website, the signup button may be unavailable because of the high traffic. However, Sam Altman said the signups will be disabled on and off for a while, which means you may get in if you try at multiple points throughout the day.
