PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Generative media with a credit, rights, and editorial-ownership boundary.

Runway is a generative media workspace for creating and transforming video and images through models whose availability, controls, and credit use can change by plan. Buy it for named shots, prototypes, cleanup, or transformation tasks when a person will review identity, continuity, artifacts, source rights, disclosure, and delivery fitness. Generation credits are not a predictable editing seat, and a generated clip does not own the source library, audio, color, captions, approvals, archive, or final export. Keep timeline ownership and the approved production master in a dedicated editor, with a fallback path when a model or result cannot meet the brief.

WORKS WELL FOR

  • Generative footage
  • Video transformation
  • Repeatable media workflows

CHECK BEFORE CHOOSING

  • Credits vary by model and duration
  • Standard and Pro credits do not roll over
  • Generated footage still needs editorial and rights review
