Decision snapshot
Runway’s practical boundary is the exact web-app plan: credit allowances and rollover differ, API credits remain separate, and commercial-use language does not replace input rights.
Use this record when
Identify the plan, model and app-versus-API surface before estimating generation capacity or relying on an output-rights statement.
Boundary
Runway web-app plans, documented assets and output-use statements only; API pricing, input rights and hands-on quality remain separate.
Historical interface
AI Magic Tools and Inpainting: where the old workflow went
Older Runway coverage used “AI Magic Tools” for standalone editing utilities. Inpainting was the object-removal workflow: a user brushed a mask over an unwanted subject, previewed the result and added keyframes where the mask needed correction. Runway’s preserved guide warns that heavy motion, low contrast, very large masked areas and missing background context could create artifacts.
That navigation is historical. Runway says it removed the All Tools page on April 10, 2026 and moved or deprecated several standalone Magic Tools. Its current deprecation table maps Inpainting to the Edit Video app. A separate preserved Inpainting guide says the old video-project editor retired on July 30, 2026 and points users to Edit Studio. Because Runway’s own help pages use different replacement labels, use the current Apps or Tool Mode interface as the final authority instead of following an old /ai-magic-tools/inpainting/ path.
Scope: Historical standalone-tool navigation and officially named replacements only. Kingy has not hands-on tested the current replacement workflow.
Approved source-bound claims
limits
Runway documents 125 one-time, non-expiring credits for Free; 625 credits per month for Standard; 2,250 for Pro and Unlimited; and 9,500 for Max. Max can roll over up to one unused month; Standard, Pro and Unlimited credits do not roll over. Runway’s current credit guide lists Gen-4.5 at 12 credits per generated second; this example does not establish every model’s cost.
Scope: Runway web application subscription credits; API separate · Evidence: runway-credits
pricing
Runway states that web-app plans and credits are separate from API credits and cannot be transferred between those products.
Scope: Runway web application versus API · Evidence: runway-credits
rights
Runway says users may use generated content commercially, but that statement does not cure missing rights in user inputs or other third-party rights.
Scope: Runway output terms; third-party and input rights excluded · Evidence: runway-commercial
privacy
Runway says uploaded assets are private by default until the user deliberately shares them.
Scope: Runway account assets; sharing actions and enterprise terms may differ · Evidence: runway-security, runway-assets
Evidence gaps
- Exact subscription prices are still not approved.
- No Kingy generation/export/credit test.
- Training and retention require plan/account-specific review.

Score definitions and rubric
These are launch-record readiness heuristics, not product ratings.
Launch readiness
How complete and reviewable the launch record is, not the quality of the product.
Inputs and weights: Launch date 15%; qualifying source 10%; what launched 10%; demo 15%; category 10%; audience 10%; editorial assessment 10%; traction evidence 10%; creator or audience fit 10%.
Evidence inputs: Reviewed launch metadata, public source links, demo links, taxonomy, audience, editorial notes, and recorded traction signals.
Demo evidence
Whether the record contains useful, reviewable demonstration evidence; it is not a rating of product output quality.
Inputs and weights: Working demo URL 45%; video walkthrough 25%; clear description of what launched 10%; audience 10%; editorial assessment 10%.
Evidence inputs: Demo and video URLs plus the reviewed launch description, audience, and editorial notes.
Creator-story fit
Whether a launch has enough demonstrable evidence and audience relevance for a useful creator story; it does not predict views or guarantee coverage.
Inputs and weights: Demo evidence 25%; visual creator category 15%; audience 15%; editorial assessment 15%; traction evidence 10%; pricing clarity 10%; API or open-weight evidence 10%.
Evidence inputs: Reviewed demo, category, audience, editorial, traction, pricing, API, and open-weight fields.
- Scale
- 0.0–10.0. A present qualifying input receives its published weight; a missing input receives zero. Scores are rounded to one decimal.
- Assigned by
- Suggested by the deterministic field-completeness helper and assigned or approved by a Kingy editorial reviewer.
- Rubric and check date
- Rubric version P0-2026-08-10. The record’s “Last verified” date is the score check date. Checked: 2026-06-08.
- Confidence and missing data
- Confidence depends on source completeness. “Not scored yet” means no reviewed value; “Needs review” means the value or score set failed validation.
- Freshness
- Recalculate after a material launch, source, demo, pricing, audience, or traction change and during the record freshness review.
- Disputes
- Use “Suggest a correction” on the record and cite the relevant evidence. Commercial relationships cannot buy or alter a score.
