OpenAI Expands Sora 2 With Longer Clips and Pro-Only Storyboards

The update funnels 25-second generation plus a web storyboard tool to subscribers, signaling a push toward professional use.

Overview

  • OpenAI said all users can now create videos up to 15 seconds on the Sora app and web, with Pro users reaching 25 seconds on the web.
  • Storyboards are available on the web for Pro, letting creators plan sequences second by second and frame by frame.
  • The company announced the changes on Oct. 16 via an X post accompanied by an AI-generated demo video.
  • The iOS app launched Sept. 30 with invite-only access in the U.S. and Canada, following earlier caps of about 10 seconds for standard users and roughly 20 seconds for Pro on the web.
  • Vice reports Sora Pro is bundled with the $200-per-month top ChatGPT tier, and storyboard access is limited to the web interface.
