How to use it well
Use it to explore a visual direction first. Keep prompts specific, generate several options, and review every frame for brand, accuracy, and legal risk.
Pricing note
Free and paid plans are listed on Runway's official pricing page.
We link to Runway pricing instead of copying every price into this page. That is safer because AI tool pricing, usage limits, and plan names change often.
How to decide
Choose this if video output is central to the job and you can review the creative result carefully.
Video tools can become expensive with heavy generation, so check plan limits before a campaign.
