1. Highest-Performance Video Generation

• Sora 2 Pro is the top-tier model in the Sora family, built for maximum detail, realism, and scene complexity.
• Generates highly dynamic sequences with sophisticated motion, environment depth, and visual coherence.

2. Superior Synced-Audio Output

• Produces audio that matches on-screen timing, actions, and emotional tone.
• Ideal for storytelling, cinematic content, marketing assets, and creative production where audio-visual alignment is critical.

3. Enhanced Resolution Options

• Supports two quality tiers:
  • Standard: 720 x 1280 (portrait), 1280 x 720 (landscape)
  • High resolution: 1024 x 1792 (portrait), 1792 x 1024 (landscape)
• Higher tier is optimized for premium production workflows such as advertising, film pre-visualization, and design studios.

4. Deep Scene Understanding

• Creates richly detailed environments, characters, and multi-object interactions.
• Suitable for handling complex prompts requiring:
  • Perspective shifts
  • Camera motion
  • Atmospheric and lighting realism
  • Emotionally expressive scenes

5. Multi-Modal Input With Full Media Output

• Accepts text and image inputs for narrative-to-video or image-to-video pipelines.
• Outputs video and audio, providing a complete media asset without external editing tools.

6. Integrated Across Core API Endpoints

• Available through:
  • Chat Completions
  • Responses
  • Realtime
  • Assistants
  • Videos endpoint
• Enables integration in video agents, creative assistants, automated content generators, and interactive applications.

7. Consistent, Predictable Model Behavior

• Stable snapshots help lock in output consistency for long, ongoing production workflows.
• Ensures predictable rendering across iterative projects or episodic content creation.

8. Ideal Use Cases

• High-end creative storytelling
• Product commercials and brand videos
• App or UX demos
• Previs for films and games
• Educational or explainer videos
• Social media and high-resolution promotional content
