SORA 2 is HERE!

Sora 2 just dropped and it’s already shaking things up. Imagine writing a sentence and watching it turn into a TikTok-ready video in minutes. That’s what this app does. It’s part video generator, part social platform, and it’s already topping the App Store.

What it can do

Sora 2 takes your prompts and turns them into short videos. You can add your own face or voice with a “cameo” feature, remix content, and share directly inside the app. It feels like Instagram, TikTok, and Hollywood’s VFX department had a baby.

How to get it

Right now, it’s invite-only and only on iOS in the US and Canada. Pricing hasn’t been fully rolled out yet, but expect a free tier with limited credits and premium options later. If you’re already paying for ChatGPT, you’ll likely get a head start when integration happens.

The good

It’s fast, cheap, and makes wild ideas possible. You can go viral with a video that looks like it cost a studio budget but only took you a coffee break to make. Perfect for creators, marketers, or anyone who just wants to post something crazier than their ex’s IG story.

The bad

The line between real and fake is about to vanish. That’s fun when you’re making a dragon ride a scooter, but scary when it comes to politics, scams, and deepfakes. Quality can still be hit or miss, and yes, sometimes hands still come out with six fingers.

Tips to go viral

Hook people in the first two seconds, keep it short, and make it weird enough that they replay it. Show impossible scenes nobody’s seen before, drop your prompt in the captions so people know it’s AI, and always post across multiple platforms. Remember, algorithms love engagement, so give people a reason to comment — even if it’s just “what did I just watch?”

How to make money

Turn prompts into services, sell “how-to” guides, or use Sora videos as client content. Bundle them with ChatGPT scripts, captions, or ad copy and suddenly you’re a one-person creative agency. As monetization features roll out, you might even earn directly inside the app.

Final thought

Sora 2 makes video creation as easy as texting your friend. That’s exciting, a little terrifying, and very profitable if you play it right. Just remember: if your video looks too real, maybe add a wink so people know you didn’t actually hire a UFO to DJ your backyard barbecue.
