- Openais Sora app has hit the top of the app charts in the United States despite being invited only.
- The app scored 164,000 installs two days after launch.
- The Sora app combines an AI-Video maker with a social feed for remixing and sharing videos.
Openai’s new Sora app for the manufacture and sharing of AI-driven videos quickly became the most downloaded app on Apple’s US App Store despite having required an invitation for use. The app saw more than 164,000 installations in just its first two days, according to App Figures, and has beaten rival AI apps, including Openai’s own chatgpt, to become number one on the App Store’s total charts.
The fact that an app that most people have not actually been allowed to use is already surpassing the biggest names in AI is pretty bragden. Releasing the app in Tandem with the new Sora 2 model is probably the cause. The app offers access to the new AI video model as well as a social feed with remix features. You can even upload a video of yourself and make clips with your own AI avatar starring.
And that’s what people seem to want right now, rated by downloads, 56,000 right on their first day. The day 1 figure matches BROK and Crush Claude and Microsoft Copilot’s launches. Even chatgpts iOS debut can only slightly devised it with 81,000 day-one installation.
For users, the Sora app represents an even more direct appeal than chatgpt. There is no bias of productivity or help with work, except that adjacent to produce tiktok style clips. And because it is independent and not a chatgpt feature, it does not have the same, more technical approach to commitment.
The quality and value of the videos can be discussed and discussed intensely online, even when more disturbing or direct gross videos emerge.
Sora 2’s film mission
The only invited approach may not change soon. Openai built the app with protective frames that required explicit permission for komos, water marking videos and banned many kinds of prompt. Nevertheless, the company has already had to update SORA’s content policy after users began uploading copyrighted characters, celebrity faces or dangerous visual stunts.
As popular as the app turns out to be, and with revenue generation on the horizon, Sora could become a new pillar in Openai’s business. So you can probably expect more of the internet to be filled with things that no one filmed, no staged, and no one spent weeks producing. Whether it is exciting or depressing depends on your perspective, but the download numbers point to a positive slope for now.
