Video creation and editing with AI

About Runway

Runway's strength is productizing cutting-edge generative video into a creator workflow: prompt-based generation plus editing tools that make iteration fast. Its moat is execution at the intersection of model capability and a usable editor experience, creating stickiness for creators who need both generation and post. Compared to one-off video generators, Runway is closer to a creative suite; compared to traditional NLEs, it offers AI-native primitives. Best for content teams, agencies, and creators who need short-form video assets and fast experimentation cycles.
