Products, side by side
Algorithmic pairing — assembled from recorded fields, not hand-checked
Runway
Application
Generates and edits video and images from text and image prompts in the browser and in iOS and Android apps, with Aleph 2.0 for plain-language video edits and Ruby for SDR-to-HDR video conversion.
Real-time conversational video avatars made from a single image, for education, customer support, training simulation and gaming use cases; integrates via React SDK, LiveKit Agents or an embeddable widget.
Runway Data Augmentation expands a robot training set without new data collection, transforming existing trajectories into new environments, lighting conditions and object configurations with GWM-1.
Runway Offline Policy Evaluation simulates robot-policy rollouts in GWM-1 before deployment to hardware, surfacing failure modes and edge cases without touching a physical robot.
Runway Policy Model controls a robot with Runway's General World Model: GWM-1 predicts actions from live observations and proprioceptive state, fine-tuned to the customer's hardware, environment and tasks.
Node-based pipeline builder for chaining multiple Runway generative models and LLM steps into reusable, no-code creative workflows.
AI agent
AI marketing agent that generates complete ad campaigns (TikTok, Instagram, etc.), analyzes performance, runs A/B tests and auto-formats creative for different platforms and markets.
SeaArt
Application
AI creation platform for images and video: text-to-image, image-to-video, lip-sync, face-swap, upscaling and an agent, with a free tier, subscriptions and credit packs.
AI agent
Chat-based creation agent inside SeaArt: the user describes an idea in conversation and the agent produces images or videos with models such as GPT, Kling, Sora and Nano Banana, and edits existing pictures by upscaling, removing backgrounds, restoring old photos or applying filters.
No counterpart
Runway sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for SeaArt yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
Developer tool
Reusable Dev API configuration that automatically selects the best generative model for a request based on configured cost/latency/quality preferences; not separately billed beyond underlying model usage.
Commercial licensing of Runway's video model weights, checkpoints and training scripts for self-hosted, on-premises or air-gapped fine-tuning and deployment, with forward-deployed researcher support.
Model API
Hosted API for video, image and audio generation models from Runway and partner labs, billed per generation.
Robot
Robot-policy platform built on GWM-1 (General World Model): policy inference from camera observations, offline policy evaluation via simulation, synthetic data generation, and video-model licensing for custom policy training.
