Sora API Gone? Switch to NexaAPI in 5 Minutes — AI Video Generation Still Works

OpenAI just shut down Sora. If you built your product on Sora's API, here's what to do RIGHT NOW.

Why NexaAPI is the Best Drop-in Replacement

  • 🚀 50+ AI models — Kling 3.0, Veo 3, Wan 2.1, HunyuanVideo
  • 💰 5× cheaper than official pricing
  • 🔑 One API key for all models
  • OpenAI-compatible — change one line of code
  • 🆓 Free tier — no credit card required

Pricing Comparison

Provider Price/Video Free Tier Models
NexaAPI ~$0.01–0.05 ✅ Yes 50+
Runway $0.05–0.25 ❌ No 1
Pika $0.05+ Limited 1

Migration: Python

# pip install nexaapi
from nexaapi import NexaAPI

client = NexaAPI(api_key='YOUR_API_KEY')

response = client.video.generate(
    model='kling-v3-pro',
    prompt='A cinematic drone shot of a futuristic city at sunset',
    duration=5, aspect_ratio='16:9'
)
print(response.video_url)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Migration: JavaScript

// npm install nexaapi
import NexaAPI from 'nexaapi';
const client = new NexaAPI({ apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY' });

const response = await client.video.generate({
  model: 'kling-v3-pro',
  prompt: 'A cinematic drone shot of a futuristic city at sunset',
  duration: 5, aspectRatio: '16:9'
});
console.log(response.videoUrl);
