Runway generates and edits video, images and audio from text, image or video inputs in one cloud workspace, using its own Gen-4.5/Aleph 2.0 models plus third-party models (Kling, Seedance, Veo, Nano Banana and others) under a single credit system.
Unsere Einschätzung: Pick Runway if you want one credit balance and one workspace covering many video/image models, with an editor-facing agent, MCP access and Adobe/Resolve plugins; budget credits carefully because 5 s of Gen-4.5 costs 60 credits.
Wichtigste Einschränkung: Everything is metered in credits that reset monthly on Standard and Pro without rollover, and the Free plan is a one-time 125-credit deposit rather than a recurring allowance.
