Video, image and audio generation studio built around the Gen-4.5 model, with mobile apps and a developer API
Runway is a browser studio for generating and editing video, image and audio, anchored by its Gen-4.5 video model and the GWM-1 world model, with iOS and Android apps and an API for developers. It serves filmmakers, ad and social teams, and increasingly robotics groups that use its simulation output as synthetic training data. Pricing is credit-based: a free plan carries 125 one-time credits, and paid plans start at $12/month billed annually. The company also sells custom enterprise deployments.
Standard is $12/month and Pro $28/month billed annually ($15 and $35 month-to-month); Max at $76/month annual adds ProRes export, 16-bit HDR and one-month credit rollover. Free plan credits (125) are one-time, not monthly.
Use tool ↗One of the few AI video vendors with a full pipeline — generation, editing, upscaling, API — rather than a single model demo, and its film-industry adoption is real. The catch is credit economics: high-resolution generations drain a month's allowance quickly, so the advertised entry price rarely reflects working costs.
Watch out: The company moved from runwayml.com to runway.com; old links redirect, but documentation and tutorials in the wild still cite the former domain.
