HeyGen vs Sora

Which should you choose?

HeyGen wins for teams needing production-ready videos today with avatar-driven content and multi-language support. It's accessible, available now, and integrates into workflows via Zapier and APIs. Sora is the more ambitious tool for those who can wait—it generates cinematically complex 60-second videos with superior visual realism and physics understanding, but it's still in research preview with limited access and no customization for brand consistency. Choose HeyGen if you're scaling marketing content fast; choose Sora if you're experimenting with next-generation filmmaking and have patience for access.
