How to Back Up Your Sora Account & Characters (Before It’s Too Late)
I am currently backing up my account & you should too. I have 3 Pro accounts, I am slammed but I wanted to share these quick tips.
Create As Many Cameos as you can. If you have Human Characters, same thing.
Because Cameo + Human Characters go away April 26th
Save your actual character videos and cameo videos for future AI usage. One day we will have another AI that can recreate our characters while maintaining likeness.
Also make new videos with your characters with just their name and no prompt
Ex: @chippy
It will extract their essence
also go to ChatGPT or Claude and ask it for more targeted prompts to extract the essence of your character
Ex: @chippy in a quiet moment alone where no one else is watching
or
@chippy going through a wide range of emotions in front of a green screen
Run as many as you can, save them all
Note: For character essence videos, I would save then delete those unless you want some random person to have your character essence source material.
The motto here is CREATE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN
GET THE DISCOUNT NOW:
If you can upgrade to Pro, you will get max 8 generations at a time, 3 Sora 2 Pro generations on website + 5 Sora 2 generations. I know it’s 200 a month but that is a MASSIVE discount compared to the costs after April 26th

Backup Methods:
Manual Backup - reliable, only way to save your drafts
Official Backup - you request at https://privacy.openai.com/policies Has worked for others, I requested but have not got my videos yet :/
Automated Tools - some have been posted here in this subreddit
This one looks promising, have not tried it yet.
https://github.com/alpha1337/save-sora/releases
This one helps post your drafts, I may need it if I cant get all my drafts posted in a week https://github.com/slogonomo/SoraDraftPublisher
3rd Party Backup https://sorastats.com/
A friend of mine runs this one, I look at it as a backup of the backup
MANUAL BACKUP IS THE MOST RELIABLE METHOD.
Do not wait to backup your videos.
For future Sora 2 creation I am building a solution, you can get on the waitlist at sorarefugees.com
Good luck!!!
