Tool profile
Runway
A creator-focused AI video tool that turns text or images into motion.
Overview
Runway offers text-to-video, image-to-video, video inpainting, and interpolation, used by indie creators for ads, MV, and short-drama previews. Its Gen-series models sit in the top tier for controllability.
In detail
Runway positions itself as 'an AI video studio for creators'. Beyond cool clips, it stresses editability: green-screen removal, camera motion, style transfer — all in the browser. For short-video teams, it's best for previews and asset enhancement, not a full shoot replacement.
