WHO IT'S FOR
Who each tool is built for
Use cases and fit tags from each tool's own positioning. Match these to your context, not their marketing.
Media production teamsRunway's Gen-4.5 video model enables media and entertainment organizations to create highly realistic, cinematic video content with unprecedented visual fidelity and creative control. The world's top-rated video model produces professional-grade outputs while providing precise control over every aspect of generation, from motion quality to prompt adherence. Leading organizations like Lionsgate have adopted this capability to explore AI applications in film production, streamlining creative workflows and expanding storytelling possibilities without requiring extensive technical expertise or traditional production resources.
Robotics development teamsRunway's GWM Robotics variant of their General World Model enables robotics teams to simulate physical interactions and robotic behaviors through learned world models. The system can learn and predict how actions unfold in real-world scenarios, providing a powerful tool for training and testing robotic systems before physical deployment. This application allows robotics developers to explore manipulation tasks, test autonomous behaviors, and validate robotic workflows in simulated environments that accurately reflect real-world physics and interactions, significantly reducing development time and costs associated with physical prototyping.
Customer experience teamsRunway Characters provides a real-time video agent API that enables businesses to build fully custom conversational characters with any appearance and visual style. Built on the GWM-1 world model, these autonomous video agents are capable of natural conversation and contextual awareness, with full control over voice, personality, knowledge, and actions. Organizations can generate expressive digital personas from a single image with zero fine-tuning required, making it practical to deploy branded virtual assistants, customer service representatives, or interactive educational characters that engage users through realistic video-based interactions in real-time.
