Best OpenAI Sora alternatives

OpenAI's Sora is considered one of the most impeccable artificial intelligence (AI) tools for creating professional videos due to its top-notch features. However, its release date is still under wraps and has yet to be announced.

Since the release date for Sora remains unknown, here are some of the best alternatives that efficiently provide advanced generative videos:

Best alternatives to Sora

Pika Labs

Released in 2023, Pika Labs is considered one of the leading generative AI video platforms. It can efficiently create videos from images, text, or other videos and is capable of extending video length beyond 12 seconds, offering fair control over video motion. Additionally, it features crisp sound effects, text-to-video generation, and lip sync capabilities.

Haiper

Although recently released, Haiper has quickly reached new heights due to its unique interface compared to other AI models. It creates an underlying model and a training dataset that offers enhanced prompts rather than providing direct motion control, as the default mode doesn’t allow users to adjust the motion level.

Runway

Runway, another top alternative to Sora, was released before Sora was unveiled. It offers excellent and realistic generative video content tailored to users' requirements. Runway was the first chatbot to release a commercial synthetic video model, integrating features such as lip-synching, motion brush to manipulate animation, and voice-over to enhance content quality.
