About RunwayRunway

Runway generates footage rather than assembling it: its models produce video and images from prompts and reference material. The free tier is 125 one-time credits to try the tools. Standard at US$12 a month gives 625 credits a month, five parallel generations and 20 GB of storage; Pro at US$28 gives 2,250 credits, fifteen parallel generations and a brand kit; Max at US$76 gives 9,500 credits, twenty parallel generations, three brand kits and early access to new models.
