Runway pricing and plans
Runway is free to try, then $15 a month for Standard, $35 for Pro, and $95 for Max. Annual billing lowers those monthly equivalents to $12, $28, and $76. Team costs $69 per seat monthly or $55 per seat on annual billing, with credits pooled across the workspace.
What changes the real cost
- Credits do not equal a fixed number of videos. Gen-4.5 uses 12 credits per second, but other models and modes have different rates.
- Free includes 125 credits once. They do not renew, and Free users cannot buy top-up credits.
- Standard, Pro, and Max can buy top-up credits. The minimum purchase is 1,000 credits at $0.01 each, and purchased credits do not expire.
- Standard and Pro credits reset each billing date. Max and Team can roll over unused monthly credits for up to one month.
- Team credits are pooled. Each paid seat adds 6,900 monthly credits to one shared workspace pool; the self-service plan supports 2 to 9 paid seats.
- App and API credits are separate. Credits in a Runway web subscription cannot be used through the Runway API.
- Max is replacing Unlimited. Max opened to new subscribers on May 29, 2026; legacy Unlimited users are scheduled to switch on November 30, 2026.

What the credits buy with Gen-4.5
Runway lists Gen-4.5 at 12 credits per second: 60 credits for a 5-second generation and 120 for 10 seconds. The figures below show the maximum number of complete clips if every included credit were spent only on Gen-4.5.
| Plan | Gen-4.5 seconds | 5-sec clips | 10-sec clips | Cost / 1,000 credits (annual billing) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | About 52 | 10 | 5 | $19.20 |
| Pro | About 187 | 37 | 18 | $12.44 |
| Max | About 791 | 158 | 79 | $8.00 |
| Team, per seat | 575 | 115 | 57 | $7.97 |
Which plan fits
- Trying Runway for the first time: Free, but its 125 credits are a one-time pool and outputs carry a watermark.
- Occasional projects: Standard, if 625 monthly credits and three active projects cover your workflow.
- Generating a few times each week: Pro, with 2,250 credits, Runway MCP, a Brand Kit, and a custom voice.
- Daily individual work: Max, for 9,500 credits, limited rollover, early access, and more parallel generations.
- Two to nine collaborators: Team, when shared projects and pooled credits matter more than individual allocations.
- Ten or more seats or custom controls: Enterprise.
Choosing an individual plan?
The upgrade is not just more credits: cost per included credit falls sharply from Standard to Max, while projects, storage, rollover, and parallel generation also change. Compare Standard, Pro, and Max →
Budgeting for a team?
Every paid seat adds 6,900 credits to the shared pool, which works out to about 575 seconds of Gen-4.5 per seat. See seat pricing and what the pooled credits cover →
Price history
Toolvel’s tracker reads Runway’s individual pricing page every day and keeps a dated snapshot. The rows below show what those checks and Runway’s help center recorded. Team prices sit on a separate tab and are not part of these snapshots. Changes for every tracked tool are in the pricing changes log.
| Date | What Runway’s pricing showed | Record |
|---|---|---|
| May 29, 2026 | Max opened to new subscribers as the replacement for the legacy Unlimited plan. | Runway help |
| Sep 28, 2026 | Standard $15, Pro $35 and Max $95 a month; $12, $28 and $76 a month on annual billing. | Toolvel tracker snapshot |
| Oct 14, 2026 | Prices unchanged. The page opened on annual billing with the monthly price struck through, which the tracker misread as a removed monthly price. | Toolvel review of the pricing page, not a price change |
| Oct 19, 2026 | Max no longer advertised unlimited Wan 3.0 and Wan 3.0 Prime in Tool Mode, an offer the page had marked until October 18. | Toolvel checks on Oct 18 and Oct 19 |

| Nov 30, 2026 (scheduled) | Legacy Unlimited subscribers are switched to Max. | Runway help |

- How Toolvel checks prices
Enterprise offer, checked November 5, 2026: net-new Enterprise customers signing between October 7 and December 31, 2026 may qualify for one-time bonus credits, subject to a minimum spend threshold. When Toolvel checked on October 26, the signing window ended October 31. The bonus matches Annual Included Credits used during the onboarding period, which ends after 60 days or on December 31, 2026, whichever comes first, and cannot exceed purchased Annual Included Credits. Because that end date did not move, signing later leaves a shorter period to earn the bonus. It is a conditional credit grant, not two months with no bill. Confirm the threshold, grant timing and expiry in your agreement. Official bonus-credit terms.
Before you pay
- There’s a 30-day window, at Runway’s discretion. Runway may refund a plan bought or renewed in the last 30 days if it’s unused or close to unused. A refund ends the plan right away and removes its unused credits.
- Picked annual by mistake? Switch to monthly in your billing settings. The rest of the annual payment becomes an account credit, and support can refund that balance instead if you ask. Runway also lists accidentally selecting annual instead of monthly as a discretionary case for switching plans and refunding the difference.
- Canceling stops the renewal, not the plan. Cancel from your billing page; paid features stay until the period ends. App Store and Google Play plans are canceled with Apple or Google.
- Purchased credits outlast the plan. They stay on your account after you cancel, but what you can do with them follows your current plan, so generations on the free tier are watermarked. Unused credit packs bought in the last 30 days may also qualify for a discretionary refund.
