# StableStudio Sora-2 Video Generation

> StableStudio Sora-2 Video Generation is a paid API for AI agents from stablestudio.io, paid per call via x402, $10/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Generates an AI video using the Sora-2 model from a text prompt, returning a job ID for async retrieval

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability stablestudio-sora-2-video-generation-c94a2e0e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Use StableStudio to generate a Sora-2 video of a golden retriever running through a sunlit meadow at 1 MP resolution in 16:9 aspect ratio, with prompt upsampling turned on.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to generate a video using OpenAI's Sora-2 model on a pay-per-use basis without a subscription. Prefer this over subscription-based video generation services when cost needs to be per-generation. Use this when you need fine-grained control over resolution (up to 4 MP), aspect ratio, output format, seed reproducibility, and safety tolerance for a single video generation job.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or empty prompt returns validation error
- Unsupported resolution or aspect ratio enum value causes 400 error
- Payment of $10 USDC not provided or declined results in 402 Payment Required
- Safety tolerance out of range (below 1 or above 5) causes schema validation failure
- Output quality outside 0-100 range causes error
- Job submission succeeds but video generation fails asynchronously — status will reflect failure on poll

## How this service works

Pay-per-generation AI image and video creation. No subscriptions ever.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a jobId (e.g. 'cmpbmzaee000j04jrzx4f43tw'), a status of 'pending', the generation type ('sora-2-video'), and a success boolean. The agent must poll or retrieve the job result separately using the jobId.
