  "textContent": "Azure OpenAI Foundry currently plans to prematurely end support for Sora 2 on **June 6, 2026** , even though OpenAI’s timeline indicates support should continue until **September 24, 2026**. It feels way too early and inconsistent with the broader timeline.\n\nAzure also contradicts themselves previously announced on X that they would extend support. I created a Microsoft Q&A post asking them to honor that extension through September 24 (unfortunately I can’t share the link here, but it’s pretty easy to find on Google `azure sora 2 june 6`). I would really appreciate it if others could reply on the thread and ask Microsoft to align Sora 2 Foundry’s retirement date with OpenAI’s timeline.\n\nIf anyone has ideas for other effective ways to raise visibility with the right Microsoft or Azure OpenAI teams, please share them. This seems like the kind of issue that needs more attention before the earlier cutoff becomes final.\n\nThis is especially important for teams like ours. As part of the Microsoft for Startups program, we receive credits that can only be used on Microsoft’s platform. Moving directly to OpenAI endpoints would create a cost burden we currently can’t absorb.",
