RunwayML
Runway offers a cloud workspace for generating and editing media, an API platform for building with AI models, and robotics tools for simulation and policy evaluation. Creators, developers, and robotics teams use the platform suited to their work.
One of 204 tools in Video Generation
Who it's for
- Creators and creative teams who want a cloud-based workspace for generating and editing video, images, and audio.
- Developers building AI media applications who need API access to Runway and other labs' models.
- Robotics teams working on policy inference, evaluation, simulation, or synthetic data generation.
How it fits your workflow
Creative users work in Runway's cloud-based workspace to generate and edit video, images, and audio. The site also lists Agent and custom Workflows as ways to create.
Developers get an API key and use Runway Dev's API platform and documentation to build with models from Runway and other labs.
Robotics teams use Runway Robotics for policy inference and evaluation through photorealistic simulation, as well as synthetic data generation. Runway says it works with customers to fit the toolkit to their hardware.
