This workflow automates the entire text-to-video generation process using OpenAI's SORA-2 model via Replicate API. Simply provide a seed image, text prompt describing your desired scene, and video duration (4, 8, or 12 seconds), and the workflow handles the video creation, status monitoring, and delivery of your AI-generated content - typically ready in 2-5 minutes.

Tools Used

  • n8n: The automation platform that orchestrates the workflow
  • Replicate API: Powers the OpenAI SORA-2 AI model for text-to-video generation
  • OpenAI API: Required for SORA-2 model authentication
  • Status Monitoring: Automated checking system with intelligent retry logic
  • Error Handling: Built-in resilience with comprehensive error management
  • Batch Processing: Optional bulk generation for multiple videos
