Consumer access is over, while developers have a limited, paid migration window.

The official Sora web experience and app<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They no longer work as an active consumer video product. You should not subscribe to ChatGPT on the assumption that it restores the old Sora generation quota. If you previously used Sora, follow OpenAI\u2019s export guidance promptly rather than treating the old library as permanent storage. The discussion around the closure is summarized in our roundup of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/sora-is-shutting-down-reddit-reactions\/\">Sora shutdown reactions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. The official OpenAI API<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The API is still documented for migration purposes, but both current model pages label the models&nbsp;<strong>Deprecated<\/strong>. It is paid access, subject to account tier and rate limits, and it has a fixed end date. Existing teams can use the remaining time to export outputs, benchmark replacements, and remove Sora-specific assumptions from production code. New teams should build against a replacement instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. GlobalGPT\u2019s all-in-one workspace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GlobalGPT becomes useful here for a different reason: it brings several AI video models into one subscription and one workspace, including Seedance 2.5, Sora 2, Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0, and Wan 2.7. Instead of opening a different provider URL, managing separate subscriptions, and starting over whenever you change models, you can switch routes inside the same account and keep the workflow in one place. It is still an independent platform\u2014not a continuation of OpenAI\u2019s old free plan\u2014so its credits, plan rules, and availability follow GlobalGPT\u2019s own terms.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home?inviter=hub_popup&amp;login=1\">See the video models available in the GlobalGPT workspace<\/a>&nbsp;if that all-in-one setup fits how you work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Old \u201cdaily limit\u201d advice is especially risky now. It can make an expired allowance sound like a current entitlement. Our archived&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/sora-2-daily-limit\/\">Sora 2 daily limit explainer<\/a>&nbsp;is useful for historical context, but the official August 2026 status above takes precedence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sora 2 API Pricing and Limits Before Shutdown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OpenAI bills video generation by output duration and resolution. The following prices were shown on the official model pages when checked on August 18, 2026. They apply to the deprecated API\u2014not to a ChatGPT subscription and not to GlobalGPT credits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style data-wp-block-html=\"css\">\n\/* Sora 2 interactive Gutenberg table *\/\n.sora-data-table {\n  --sora-table-border: #cbd5d0;\n  --sora-table-head: #dce9e0;\n  --sora-table-head-text: #203d32;\n  --sora-table-row: #ffffff;\n  --sora-table-stripe: #f7faf8;\n  --sora-table-hover: #eef6f1;\n  --sora-table-accent: #28614d;\n  --sora-table-caption: #f4f8f5;\n  position: relative;\n  width: 100%;\n  margin: 28px 0;\n  overflow-x: auto;\n  overflow-y: hidden;\n  border: 1px solid var(--sora-table-border);\n  border-radius: 16px;\n  background: #fff;\n  box-shadow: 0 9px 24px rgba(32, 53, 43, 0.08);\n  -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;\n  scrollbar-width: thin;\n  scrollbar-color: #91aa9d #edf3ef;\n}\n.sora-data-table::-webkit-scrollbar { height: 10px; }\n.sora-data-table::-webkit-scrollbar-track { background: #edf3ef; }\n.sora-data-table::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb { border: 2px solid #edf3ef; border-radius: 999px; background: #91aa9d; }\n.sora-data-table table { width: 100%; min-width: 760px; margin: 0; border: 0; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0; table-layout: auto; color: #24323b; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; }\n.sora-data-table th,.sora-data-table td { padding: 15px 17px; border: 0; border-right: 1px solid var(--sora-table-border); border-bottom: 1px solid var(--sora-table-border); text-align: left; vertical-align: top; }\n.sora-data-table tr > :last-child { border-right: 0; }\n.sora-data-table tbody tr:last-child > * { border-bottom: 0; }\n.sora-data-table thead th { position: sticky; top: 0; z-index: 2; background: var(--sora-table-head); color: var(--sora-table-head-text); font-weight: 750; letter-spacing: 0.01em; }\n.sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(odd) td { background: var(--sora-table-row); }\n.sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(even) td { background: var(--sora-table-stripe); }\n.sora-data-table tbody tr:hover td,.sora-data-table tbody tr:focus-within td { background: var(--sora-table-hover); }\n.sora-data-table tbody tr:hover td:first-child { box-shadow: inset 4px 0 0 var(--sora-table-accent); }\n.sora-data-table code { padding: 0.12em 0.34em; border-radius: 5px; background: #edf2ef; color: #285445; font-size: 0.92em; }\n.sora-data-table figcaption,.sora-data-table .wp-element-caption { box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 12px 16px; border-top: 0; background: linear-gradient(90deg, var(--sora-table-caption), #fff); color: #5e6d69; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.55; text-align: left; }\n@media (max-width: 782px) {\n  .sora-data-table { margin: 24px 0; border-radius: 13px; }\n  .sora-data-table table { min-width: 700px; font-size: 15px; }\n  .sora-data-table th,.sora-data-table td { padding: 13px 14px; }\n  .sora-data-table thead th:first-child,.sora-data-table tbody td:first-child { position: sticky; left: 0; z-index: 1; box-shadow: 4px 0 8px rgba(32, 53, 43, 0.07); }\n  .sora-data-table thead th:first-child { z-index: 3; background: var(--sora-table-head); }\n  .sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(odd) td:first-child { background: var(--sora-table-row); }\n  .sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(even) td:first-child { background: var(--sora-table-stripe); }\n  .sora-data-table tbody tr:hover td:first-child,.sora-data-table tbody tr:focus-within td:first-child { background: var(--sora-table-hover); }\n}\n@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) { .sora-data-table * { scroll-behavior: auto !important; } }\n<\/style>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table sora-data-table is-style-stripes\">\n  <table>\n    <thead>\n      <tr><th>API model<\/th><th>Output size<\/th><th>Price per second<\/th><th>10-second example<\/th><\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr><td><code>sora-2<\/code><\/td><td>720p<\/td><td>$0.10<\/td><td>$1.00<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td><code>sora-2-pro<\/code><\/td><td>720p<\/td><td>$0.30<\/td><td>$3.00<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td><code>sora-2-pro<\/code><\/td><td>1024\u00d71792 or 1792\u00d71024<\/td><td>$0.50<\/td><td>$5.00<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td><code>sora-2-pro<\/code><\/td><td>1080\u00d71920 or 1920\u00d71080<\/td><td>$0.70<\/td><td>$7.00<\/td><\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n  <figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Official list prices checked August 18, 2026.

The simplest practical plan is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Inventory every production prompt, aspect ratio, duration, seed strategy, and post-processing step.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Export the outputs and metadata you may need after the consumer product and API are gone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose a small benchmark set that represents talking shots, product motion, text, camera movement, and difficult physics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Run the same intent\u2014not necessarily identical syntax\u2014through two or three replacement models.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Measure usable-clip rate and effective cost per approved clip, not just headline price.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Switch production traffic before the final shutdown date and retain a rollback path.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have purchased Sora credits left, OpenAI says credits usable in Sora can also be used for Codex. Confirm the balance and current account rules directly rather than assuming a refund or indefinite Sora access. If you are unfamiliar with the old product boundaries, our guide to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/what-is-sora-2-app\/\">what the Sora 2 app was<\/a>&nbsp;can help separate app features from API capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Official Sora and GlobalGPT Serve Different Needs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The word \u201cSora\u201d can describe a model, an old OpenAI consumer product, an OpenAI API endpoint, or a route available inside another platform. Those are not interchangeable. The practical difference is that OpenAI\u2019s remaining API is a temporary developer route, while GlobalGPT is an all-in-one subscription built around access to multiple models from one workspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style data-wp-block-html=\"css\">\n.sora-data-table{--sora-table-border:#cbd5d0;--sora-table-head:#dce9e0;--sora-table-head-text:#203d32;--sora-table-row:#fff;--sora-table-stripe:#f7faf8;--sora-table-hover:#eef6f1;--sora-table-accent:#28614d;--sora-table-caption:#f4f8f5;position:relative;width:100%;margin:28px 0;overflow-x:auto;overflow-y:hidden;border:1px solid var(--sora-table-border);border-radius:16px;background:#fff;box-shadow:0 9px 24px rgba(32,53,43,.08);-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch;scrollbar-width:thin;scrollbar-color:#91aa9d #edf3ef}\n.sora-data-table::-webkit-scrollbar{height:10px}.sora-data-table::-webkit-scrollbar-track{background:#edf3ef}.sora-data-table::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb{border:2px solid #edf3ef;border-radius:999px;background:#91aa9d}\n.sora-data-table table{width:100%;min-width:760px;margin:0;border:0;border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0;table-layout:auto;color:#24323b;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5}\n.sora-data-table th,.sora-data-table td{padding:15px 17px;border:0;border-right:1px solid var(--sora-table-border);border-bottom:1px solid var(--sora-table-border);text-align:left;vertical-align:top}.sora-data-table tr>:last-child{border-right:0}.sora-data-table tbody tr:last-child>*{border-bottom:0}\n.sora-data-table thead th{position:sticky;top:0;z-index:2;background:var(--sora-table-head);color:var(--sora-table-head-text);font-weight:750;letter-spacing:.01em}.sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(odd) td{background:var(--sora-table-row)}.sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(even) td{background:var(--sora-table-stripe)}.sora-data-table tbody tr:hover td,.sora-data-table tbody tr:focus-within td{background:var(--sora-table-hover)}.sora-data-table tbody tr:hover td:first-child{box-shadow:inset 4px 0 0 var(--sora-table-accent)}\n.sora-data-table code{padding:.12em .34em;border-radius:5px;background:#edf2ef;color:#285445;font-size:.92em}.sora-data-table figcaption,.sora-data-table .wp-element-caption{box-sizing:border-box;width:100%;margin:0;padding:12px 16px;border-top:0;background:linear-gradient(90deg,var(--sora-table-caption),#fff);color:#5e6d69;font-size:14px;line-height:1.55;text-align:left}\n@media(max-width:782px){.sora-data-table{margin:24px 0;border-radius:13px}.sora-data-table table{min-width:700px;font-size:15px}.sora-data-table th,.sora-data-table td{padding:13px 14px}.sora-data-table thead th:first-child,.sora-data-table tbody td:first-child{position:sticky;left:0;z-index:1;box-shadow:4px 0 8px rgba(32,53,43,.07)}.sora-data-table thead th:first-child{z-index:3;background:var(--sora-table-head)}.sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(odd) td:first-child{background:var(--sora-table-row)}.sora-data-table tbody tr:nth-child(even) td:first-child{background:var(--sora-table-stripe)}.sora-data-table tbody tr:hover td:first-child,.sora-data-table tbody tr:focus-within td:first-child{background:var(--sora-table-hover)}}\n@media(prefers-reduced-motion:reduce){.sora-data-table *{scroll-behavior:auto!important}}\n<\/style>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table sora-data-table is-style-stripes\">\n  <table>\n    <thead>\n      <tr><th>Question<\/th><th>OpenAI consumer Sora<\/th><th>OpenAI Sora API<\/th><th>GlobalGPT platform<\/th><\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr><td>Status on Aug 18, 2026<\/td><td>Discontinued<\/td><td>Deprecated; shutdown Sep 24<\/td><td>Active separate platform<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td>Free Sora plan<\/td><td>No current product<\/td><td>Free tier not supported<\/td><td>No claim of OpenAI free-plan continuity<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td>Billing<\/td><td>Old plan references are stale<\/td><td>Per output second<\/td><td>One GlobalGPT plan and credit system<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td>Model choice<\/td><td>Unavailable<\/td><td><code>sora-2<\/code>, <code>sora-2-pro<\/code> during migration<\/td><td>Multiple video models in one account<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><td>Best fit<\/td><td>Export\/history only<\/td><td>Existing integrations finishing migration<\/td><td>All-in-one access without separate model subscriptions<\/td><\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GlobalGPT\u2019s pricing page displayed annual promotional equivalents of&nbsp;<strong>$5.80\/month for Basic, $10.80\/month for Pro, and $25\/month for Unlimited<\/strong>&nbsp;when checked on August 18, 2026.

The remaining Sora API is paid, and its model pages list the Free tier as \u201cNot supported.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I still use Sora 2 through OpenAI?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only through the deprecated API during its remaining migration window. OpenAI says the Sora API will shut down on September 24, 2026, so it is not a sensible foundation for a new long-term product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How much does the Sora 2 API cost?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before shutdown, sora-2 costs $0.10 per generated second at 720p. sora-2-pro costs $0.30 per second at 720p, $0.50 at 1024\u00d71792 or 1792\u00d71024, and $0.70 at 1080\u00d71920 or 1920\u00d71080.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does ChatGPT Plus include free Sora 2 generations now?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No current Sora consumer plan should be inferred from old ChatGPT Plus quota articles. The Sora web and app product ended on April 26, 2026; the remaining API has no supported Free tier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happened on March 24, 2026?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">March 24 was the Sora API deprecation announcement date shown in OpenAI\u2019s developer deprecation table. It was not the consumer shutdown date. The consumer web and app ended on April 26, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens to purchased Sora credits?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OpenAI says purchased credits that were usable in Sora can also be used for Codex. Check the official discontinuation notice and your account before relying on a remaining balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is GlobalGPT the official OpenAI Sora website?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. GlobalGPT is a separate all-in-one platform that provides access to multiple AI models through one subscription and one workspace. Its plans, billing, credits, model availability, and limits are independent from OpenAI\u2019s discontinued Sora consumer product and the deprecated OpenAI API.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the best Sora 2 alternatives in 2026?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The right choice depends on the job. Current official models to compare include Seedance 2.5, Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0, and Wan 3.0. GlobalGPT\u2019s catalog currently labels its Wan route as Wan 2.7, so check the exact version before spending credits. Test prompt adherence, motion, duration, watermark rules, and effective cost on your own clips before committing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Verdict<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The old Sora 2 free-plan question now has a straightforward answer:&nbsp;<strong>the consumer free route is over<\/strong>. OpenAI\u2019s web experience and app ended on April 26, 2026. The API is paid, deprecated, and scheduled to close on September 24, 2026. Any page still promising current daily free Sora generations needs a source date and a correction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Existing API users should export, benchmark, and migrate. Everyone else should avoid building a new workflow around a closing endpoint. If you would rather keep several video models under one subscription and switch between them without opening separate provider sites,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home?inviter=hub_popup&amp;login=1\">see the models and plans available on GlobalGPT<\/a>.
