Its deprecation schedule lists September 24, 2026 as the shutdown date for the Sora 2 \/ Videos API; that date has now passed. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home\/sora-2?inviter=hub_content_sora&amp;login=1\">GlobalGPT still publishes a Sora 2 and Pro entry<\/a> with synchronized audio and up to 15-second clips, as a separate platform route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Buying ChatGPT Pro no longer opens the discontinued Sora app. The API lifecycle and third-party platform availability must be considered separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/openai.com\/sora\/\">OpenAI\u2019s Sora discontinuation notice<\/a> covers the consumer app; the <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.openai.com\/api\/docs\/deprecations\">API deprecation schedule<\/a> covers OpenAI\u2019s Videos API. GlobalGPT describes its own access route separately, so the OpenAI shutdown date alone does not establish GlobalGPT\u2019s shutdown date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don\u2019t have a Sora 2 invite code, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home\/sora-2?inviter=hub_content_sora&amp;login=1\">an easier way to access Sora 2 Pro<\/a> is through an all-in-one AI platform like Global GPT, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home\/sora-2?inviter=hub_content_sora&amp;login=1\">already integrates Sora 2<\/a> and doesn\u2019t require a verification code. It also comes with fewer content restrictions and generates videos <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/how-to-remove-watermarks-in-sora-2\/\">without watermarks<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GlobalGPT supports Sora 2 Pro and publishes videos up to 15 seconds on its current Sora entry. You can use that platform route without buying a separate $200\/month ChatGPT Pro subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GlobalGPT also offers Veo 3.1, Seedance 2.5 and Wan 3.0 video tools, plus research and writing with GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6 Sol, Gemini 3.1 Pro and Claude Sonnet 5, and image generation with Nano Banana Pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/video-generator\/sora-2?inviter=hub_psora&amp;login=1\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"419\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.glbgpt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-183-1024x419.png\" alt=\"sora 2 pro\" class=\"wp-image-5440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.glbgpt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-183-1024x419.png 1024w, https:\/\/wp.glbgpt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-183-300x123.png 300w, https:\/\/wp.glbgpt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-183-768x314.png 768w, https:\/\/wp.glbgpt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-183-18x7.png 18w, https:\/\/wp.glbgpt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-183.png 1469w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-3e41869c wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"line-height:1\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-black-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-medium-font-size has-custom-font-size wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/video-generator\/sora-2?inviter=hub_psora&amp;login=1\" style=\"background-color:#fec33a\"><strong>Try Sora 2 Pro Now &gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-text-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"color:rgb(35, 59, 51);background-color:rgb(237, 244, 241);padding-top:16px;padding-right:16px;padding-bottom:16px;padding-left:16px\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#section-1\">Historical Official Method via ChatGPT Pro<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#section-2\">Unofficial Method via Global GPT<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#section-3\">Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Videos in Sora 2 Pro<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#section-4\">Tips for Maximizing Sora 2 Pro Results<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#section-5\">Video Alternatives and Price Context<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#section-6\">Frequently Asked Questions about Using Sora 2 Pro<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#section-7\">Final Thoughts on Using Sora 2 Pro<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"section-1\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Historical Official Method via ChatGPT Pro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following describes the former Sora app workflow before its closure.
