Free Access to OpenAI Sora 2 Image and Video Generation Invite Codes

OpenAI has launched Sora 2, an advanced AI video model, along with a TikTok-style app that allows users to generate and star in realistic video clips. Currently it's only available for people in the US or Canada with an invite code, but it can be obtained with a VPN. For Mobile: To use the Sora app on your phone (iOS), you may need to temporarily change your Apple ID country to the US or Canada or create a new account in these region

How to get Free Sora 2 invite codes

Join the Official OpenAI Discord

• Join the official OpenAI Discord server through an invite link on OpenAI's website.
• Go to the #sora-2channel, where users actively share fresh invite codes.
• Turn on notifications for the channel. Codes are claimed very quickly, so having instant alerts increases your chances.
• Have the sora.com website or the Sora app open and ready to paste a code as soon as it appears.

 The app allows users to create high-definition video clips with audio using text prompts and even features a unique tool called Cameos, which lets users insert themselves into AI-generated scenes. OpenAI said Sora 2 represents a significant leap in the ability of artificial intelligence to produce lifelike video content. The model can now generate synchronized dialogues, sound effects, and realistic, physically accurate motion, making the output more immersive than ever before. This move positions OpenAI in direct competition with platforms owned by tech giants like Google, Meta, and ByteDance, as it aims to reshape how content is created and shared online

How to use Sora in India (requires effort and might be against terms)

Some tech-savvy users have found unofficial methods to access Sora from outside the initial supported countries, which typically involves the following steps: Use a VPN: You need to connect to a VPN and select a server in the United States or Canada. This will route your internet traffic through that country, making it appear as though you are accessing the service from a supported region.

1. Obtain an invite code: Access to the Sora app is invite-only for new users. You may be able to find a shared invite code by joining the OpenAI Discord server or checking online communities on platforms like Twitter, Reddit, and Instagram.
2. Access the web portal: Once connected to a VPN and with an invite code, you can log in to the Sora web portal at sora.chatgpt.com/explore.
3. Download the app (iOS only): If you are an iPhone user, you might be able to download the iOS app from the US App Store after changing your Apple ID country. However, this is not a guaranteed method

Get a code from friends

• If you know someone who already has access to Sora 2, ask them for an invite code.
• When a user successfully redeems a code, they often receive four additional codes to share with others, which helps the community grow

Find codes on social media

• Check online communities like Reddit and X (formerly Twitter) using keywords such as "Sora 2 Invite Code".
• For Reddit, the r/OpenAI subreddit has a megathread for code exchange that is actively monitored by the community.
• Always verify the source and reputation of the poster before attempting to use a code from a public forum
