The Sorai application in AI Videos is a viral hit, although it is an invitation only at the invitation and limited to users in the USA and Canada during the premiere. On the first day Sora saw 56,000 downloads and is now recognized as the first general application in the American App Store, in accordance with the new DPFIGURES app.
The company estimates that the SORA application on iOS has downloaded a total of 164,000 installations during the first two days, September 30 and October 1.
A character that Day-one debuts Sory before making other large launch of AI applications, including Anthropica Claude and Microsoft Copilot, and puts it on an equal footing with the start of XAI GROK. Meanwhile, the ChatgPT Openai and Google's Gemini applications had slightly stronger premieres, each of which reached at least 80,000 downloads on the first day.
Because Sora is still invited, it may not be the most difficult comparison, we will admit. It is possible that the new video application could even attract more Installs if it was open to all users.
Despite this restriction, this is a fairly strong show for the new version, which indicates the demand for AI video tools in the hands of consumers in a greater experience similar to social networks. (This is largely disappointing some of the OpenAI who want the company to focus on solving more difficult problems that benefit humanity. But who says that humanity does not use the deep wardrobes of the general director of Altman, they ask: “Do my pigs enjoy them?”)
To compare Sora's early success with other AI applications, the AppFigures had to conduct an analysis that only concerned downloading other AI and Canadian applications. This is because various AI applications on the market have carried out various starting strategies. For example, ChatgPT initially launched on iOS and limited himself to American users, while Grok limited the release of iOS to the USA, Australia and India. Meanwhile, anthropic did not indicate geographical restrictions when she first brought her Claude application to iOS last year.
To get more apple comparisons with apples, appfigures crunch numbers to focus only on downloading each application, as well as in Canada, if the application was available during the premiere.

It turned out that Chatgpt and Gemini had larger premieres than Sora, 81,000 and 80,000 per day, respectively. Sora is associated with groc for daily installations, at 56,000. And he easily beat the premieres from the AI Claude and Copilot application. The first one pulled in 21,000 a day for download, and the second saw only 7,000.
Sora also hit the highest charts in the American App Store, becoming the first best application on the second day. For comparison, Chatgpt reached first place on the second day, while Grok was No. 4, Gemini was number 6, Copilot was No. 19 and Claude No. 78.
