Runway is an AI platform for generating and editing video from text prompts and reference images, built around its in-house Gen-4 model family. Its stated design goal is world consistency: reusing reference images to keep the same characters, locations, and objects coherent across separately generated shots, which orients it toward multi-shot narrative work rather than isolated clips. Alongside generation, it offers video editing tools that restyle footage, change lighting, or remove elements. It suits solo creators, small production teams, and advertising or VFX studios, with a free tier of one-time credits and paid plans starting at $15 per month.
