TaglineThe one that actually gets text in images right.Wire Cursor's full coding-agent runtime into your own apps, scripts, and CI/CD pipelines with a few lines of TypeScript.Autonomous AI agent that actually finishes tasks.OpenAI's video model. Long clips, cinematic quality.

PricingFree + $8/mo + $20/mo + $60/moToken-based; requires Cursor plan (Pro from $20/mo). Composer 2 at $0.50/$2.50 per M tokens (in/out); fast variant $1.50/$7.50 per M tokens.Free tier + $39-$199/moIncluded with ChatGPT Plus/Pro
Best forAnything with text — posters, ads, album covers, slide decks.Engineering teams who already use Cursor and want to embed its coding-agent runtime into CI/CD pipelines, backend services, or internal developer tools without building agent infrastructure from scratch.People who want to hand off tasks entirely — trip planning, research, spreadsheet building.ChatGPT subscribers experimenting with cinematic shots.
Strengths
  • Best text rendering in the game
  • Strong free tier
  • Good for logos, posters, thumbnails
  • Same runtime as the Cursor IDE — no reinventing sandboxing, context management, or model routing
  • Three execution modes: local machine, Cursor cloud VMs (isolated per-agent), or self-hosted workers for air-gapped teams
  • Cloud agents are durable — keep running even if your laptop sleeps or connection drops, and can open PRs automatically on finish
  • Full harness included: codebase indexing, MCP servers, skills, hooks, and multi-agent delegation via subagents
  • Visible in Cursor's Agents Window — programmatic runs can be inspected or taken over manually in the IDE
  • General-purpose agent — research, book, build, analyze
  • Parallel task execution
  • Web browsing + file creation + coding
  • Up to 20-sec clips at 1080p
  • Strong physics + scene composition
  • Storyboard feature for longer narratives
  • Remix existing videos
Weaknesses
  • Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney
  • Less style variety
  • TypeScript-only SDK — no official Python or other language bindings at launch
  • Public beta status means API surface and pricing can shift without much notice (Cursor has a track record of surprise pricing changes)
  • Cloud VM costs layer on top of subscription credits, making cost estimation non-trivial at scale
  • Still hit-or-miss on complex multi-hour tasks
  • Can burn credits fast
  • Stricter content policy than competitors
  • Hit-or-miss on complex motion
  • Text-in-video still struggles
Kai's verdictS-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.If your team is already in the Cursor ecosystem, this is a genuinely compelling way to turn ad-hoc AI coding sessions into durable, automated workflows — but the beta label and Cursor's history with opaque pricing mean you'll want to set hard budget guardrails before going to production. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros.
