Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Runway ML and traditional video editors? +

Runway ML is cloud-based and AI-powered, while traditional editors like Premiere Pro or Final Cut are desktop applications. Runway focuses on AI automation for complex tasks (background removal, object tracking, text-to-video) that would take hours manually. Traditional editors offer more manual control and advanced features but require more skill and time.

Can I use Runway ML for commercial projects? +

Yes, with paid plans. The Free plan includes watermarked exports not suitable for commercial use. Standard ($15/month) and Pro ($35/month) plans allow commercial use with no watermark. Enterprise plans offer additional licensing and support for large-scale commercial projects.

How does Gen-2 text-to-video work? +

Gen-2 analyzes your text prompt and generates corresponding video content using advanced diffusion models. You describe what you want (e.g., "a astronaut riding a horse on Mars, cinematic"), and Gen-2 creates a short video clip matching that description. Results vary based on prompt specificity and available credits on your plan.

Do I need a powerful computer to use Runway ML? +

No, Runway ML runs entirely in the cloud. All processing happens on Runway's servers, so you can use it on any computer with a modern web browser and internet connection. Even complex tasks like video generation or green screen removal don't require local GPU power.

What video formats does Runway ML support? +

Runway supports common video formats including MP4, MOV, AVI, and WebM for import. Exports are available in MP4 format at various resolutions: 720p (Free), 1080p (Standard), and 4K (Pro). You can also export individual frames as PNG or JPG images.

Can I collaborate with team members on Runway ML? +

Yes, collaboration features are available on Pro and Enterprise plans. Multiple users can work on the same project simultaneously, with real-time updates and commenting. Free and Standard plans support single-user access only. Team management features are included in higher-tier plans.
