# Bing Video Creator: Free Sora AI Video Tool
Microsoft has introduced Bing Video Creator, a new AI-powered video generation tool integrated into the Bing app. This free feature leverages OpenAI’s Sora model to transform text prompts into short video clips.
## How Bing Video Creator Works
The tool allows users to generate 10 free video clips per Microsoft account before requiring payment in Microsoft Rewards points. Key details include:
– Current limitations: Only vertical 9:16 aspect ratio (optimized for social media)
– Processing time: Several minutes to hours for generation
– Clip length: Fixed at 5 seconds per video
## Access and Pricing Structure
To use Bing Video Creator:
1. Log in with a Microsoft account
2. Access through the Bing mobile app (desktop version coming later)
3. After 10 free clips, pay 100 Microsoft Rewards points per video
Users can earn points through:
– Bing searches (5 points per PC search)
– Microsoft Store purchases
– Daily cap of 150 points
## Future Updates
Microsoft plans to expand functionality with:
– Horizontal 9:16 aspect ratio support
– Potentially longer video durations
– Improved processing speeds
This marks the first free public access to OpenAI’s Sora technology, previously limited to paying customers. The integration demonstrates Microsoft’s continued partnership with OpenAI following their long-term collaboration.
