Official Sora status page: product discontinued with export guidance and timeline.
Sora is OpenAI's video-generation product that has been officially discontinued, with sunset timelines published by OpenAI.
Product discontinued per official OpenAI notice.
Sora was OpenAI's generative video product, previously available through web/app experiences and API access. According to OpenAI's official help documentation, the Sora web and app experiences were discontinued on April 26, 2026, and the Sora API is scheduled for discontinuation on September 24, 2026.
OpenAI provides sunset guidance for users, including export instructions for previously created content. The official process points users to the dedicated export endpoint and notes that users should export data as soon as possible.
For operational planning, Sora should now be treated as a sunset/discontinued product rather than an active tool for new adoption. Existing workflows must be migrated to currently supported alternatives inside the OpenAI ecosystem or other video-generation stacks.
This listing is maintained as an official status reference to help teams document deprecation impact, data-export deadlines, and migration planning in their AI tooling inventories.
