Retired dated Sora video-generation snapshot. Preserved separately from its rolling alias; later alias features and tariffs are not assumed to apply to this version.
Retired: the Videos API and this model selector shut down on 2026-09-24. Documentation is retained for historical reference; no live access or replacement is implied.
Regions
Historical deployment regions not established for this model.
Endpoint pricing has not been collected. Check the provider for applicable rates.
Data & enterprise terms
Consult the provider API data controls for historical endpoint and account conditions; no Sora-specific zero-retention or current availability guarantee is inferred.
Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.
01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain
The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.
02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state
Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.
03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate
Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say
No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.
Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.
The record behind the model
Why it is included
Named proprietary OpenAI video-generation release with official alias and snapshot documentation. Hosted API retirement does not make its weights public.
