Runway

Video generation, image-to-video and upscaling. A second video model, with a different house look.

Connecting

In the dashboard, open Connectors, find Runway and press Connect. The key you enter is checked against Runway before anything is saved, so a key that is refused never becomes a connection that fails later.

Notes

Asynchronous. Starting a job returns a task id. Poll get_task until status is SUCCEEDED; it can also end FAILED or CANCELLED, and sits at THROTTLED when the account is at its concurrency limit.
ratio is a width:height pixel pair, not a simple aspect ratio, and the accepted values differ per model. The values offered here are the ones valid for the models above.
Every request carries X-Runway-Version: 2024-11-06, which the API requires.
Results are copied onto BoostGPT storage, so the link keeps working.

What an agent can do with it

Tool	What it does
`generate_image`	Generate an image from a text prompt with Runway Gen-4 Image. Asynchronous: returns a task id. Poll get_task until its status is SUCCEEDED, and the result is returned on a durable URL.
`generate_video`	Generate a video from a text prompt with Runway Gen-4.5. Asynchronous: returns a task id. Poll get_task until its status is SUCCEEDED, and the result is returned on a durable URL.
`image_to_video`	Animate a still image with Runway. gen4.5 is the current model; gen4_turbo is faster and cheaper. Asynchronous: returns a task id. Poll get_task until its status is SUCCEEDED, and the result is returned on a durable URL.
`upscale_video`	Upscale an existing video, up to 4K. Asynchronous: returns a task id. Poll get_task until its status is SUCCEEDED, and the result is returned on a durable URL.
`get_task`	Poll a Runway task. Status is PENDING, THROTTLED, RUNNING, SUCCEEDED, FAILED or CANCELLED. Once SUCCEEDED the result is rehosted on a durable URL; while it is still running the status is returned so you can poll again.
`cancel_task`	Cancel a Runway task that has not finished, or delete a finished one.
