Comparison
Sora vs Veo 3.1 vs Kling 2.6
TL;DR
Sora is OpenAI's flagship — strongest narrative coherence but US-only access and high cost. Veo 3.1 is Google's — best for environment scale and IMAX-style cinematography. Kling 2.6 is the highest-fidelity character model and the one working music video directors use most. The Social Twin routes to Veo and Kling for Indian creators because Sora has limited India access.
