Unified media model API
Access video, image, and audio models from Runway and other frontier labs through a single API platform. The model catalog includes capabilities such as text-to-video, video editing, image generation, and image editing.
Runway Dev
Freemium
Runway Dev is an API platform for adding AI-generated video, images, and audio to products and production workflows. It provides access to Runway and other providers' models, along with model routing, workflows, recipes, and team controls.
Runway Devとは？
Runway Dev is an API platform for production media generation. It provides one integration for AI video, image, and audio models from Runway and other frontier labs, plus workflows, recipes, and characters. Developers can use it to add generative media to products or automate repeatable creation processes.
The platform is designed to reduce the need to manage every model and workflow independently. Teams can compare models, set preferences for cost, latency, or quality, and apply a per-generation cost ceiling. They can also trigger custom workflows and inspect usage across projects, models, days, and API keys.
Runway Devでできること
Model evaluation and routing
Run the same prompt across available models and compare quality, speed, and cost. A model router can prioritize cost, latency, or quality and enforce a maximum cost per generation.
Recipes and custom workflows
Use Runway-built recipes for packaged prompting and workflow behavior, or create pipelines that combine multiple models, modalities, and tasks. Custom workflows can be exposed through endpoints.
Developer and agent tooling
The platform provides SDK documentation and examples for Node, Python, and cURL. Its Dev MCP connects an account to a coding agent that can build, debug, and maintain an integration.
Project-level administration
Separate projects can have their own API keys, credits, usage tier, members, and billing. Admin, Developer, and Billing Admin roles provide different levels of access.
Usage and enterprise controls
Teams can view credit usage by model and day in the dashboard or usage API and filter request logs by API key. The platform also lists 99.9% uptime, no training on customer data, output ownership, SOC 2 Type II, IP indemnification, content moderation, and enterprise support.
利用シーン
“Automated product and social media content”
A commerce or marketing product can use image and video generation to turn product photography into social posts, product shots, UGC-style ads, and product video ads. Workflows can chain generation and refinement instead of requiring each step to be handled manually.
“Media transformation and post-production”
Teams working with existing footage can use video-editing and enhancement models for tasks such as removing elements, changing a backdrop or time of day, relighting a scene, or upscaling video. These operations can be incorporated into repeatable pipelines.
“Training and explainer production”
Education and enablement teams can build explainers and training content from documents or other supplied inputs, using workflows to connect text, image, video, language-model, and media-generation steps.
“Interactive characters and conversational products”
Product teams can build expressive characters with custom voices, knowledge, and tools for live interaction inside their applications. The Characters capability is presented as an API-accessible way to add these experiences.
“Multi-model production pipelines”
Engineering and creative teams can evaluate several models for the same task, select a cost, latency, or quality preference, and then route production requests automatically rather than hard-coding a single model choice.
よくある質問
What types of media can Runway Dev generate or process?
The platform covers video, image, and audio models. The listed catalog includes text-to-video, video editing, image generation, and image editing, while the broader platform also exposes workflows, recipes, and characters.
Can Runway Dev choose a model automatically?
Yes. The model router can select a model based on a configured preference for cost, latency, or quality, and can apply a maximum cost per generation. The platform also supports comparing the same prompt across models before production use.
How can developers build with Runway Dev?
The site provides SDK documentation and examples for Node, Python, and cURL. Developers can also use recipes, trigger custom workflow endpoints, or connect the Runway Dev MCP to a coding agent for integration work.
How are teams and usage organized?
Teams can create separate projects for products or departments, with project-specific API keys, credits, usage tiers, members, and billing. Roles include Admin, Developer, and Billing Admin. Usage can be viewed by model and day, and request logs can be filtered by API key.
Does the public individual pricing page describe API billing?
No. The available pricing evidence describes Runway's individual plans and credit system, but it does not establish Runway Dev API pricing, quotas, or billing mechanics. Developers should consult the API pricing and billing documentation for those details.
