Runway develops its own frontier video and world models, including Gen-4.5 and GWM-1, trained in collaboration with NVIDIA. It offers an integrated web platform, a developer API, and direct enterprise partnerships with major studios and brands.
Its product lineup spans text-to-video, image generation, real-time conversational characters, and robotics simulation, supported by a direct-to-consumer subscription model and usage-based API pricing.
Runway serves filmmakers, marketers, game developers, and enterprises adopting generative media for production workflows. The company is expanding from video generation into general world models and physical AI applications.
Its annual AI Film Festival, studio partnerships, and research publications aim to establish Runway as a platform for both creative tools and next-generation simulation technology.
Runway offers a tiered subscription model with a free plan for exploration and paid Standard, Pro, and Max plans that provide monthly generation credits. Enterprise customers receive custom credits, SSO, and dedicated support.
Developer API access is billed on usage, and the real-time Characters product charges per active session minute. The company also provides partner and grant programs for selected builders.
