Runway AI Models on Martini
Runway Gen4, Aleph, and Gen4 Image all run on Martini, so the agency-favorite stack for image-to-video, video-to-video, and brand-clean stills lives next to every other major model. Drop Gen4 nodes into the same canvas as Veo, Kling, and Sora and pick the right tool per shot.
About Runway
Runway has been one of the founding companies of the AI video era and ships three model families on Martini. Gen4 is the current flagship — a polished image-to-video model widely used in advertising for its brand-clean output, dependable physics, and consistent character handling. Aleph is the video-to-video model, the tool of choice for restyling existing footage, swapping environments, or pushing a clip into a new aesthetic. Gen4 Image rounds out the lineup as Runway's text-to-image model, tuned for the same color palette and aesthetic that Gen4 video produces, which makes it the natural source for image-to-video chains.
On Martini the Runway stack is positioned as the production-friendly choice. Gen4 tends to win head-to-head against other models when the brief is a 30-second product spot or a brand explainer where every frame has to look client-ready. Aleph is the only V2V model in the lineup that can take rough live-action footage and transform it into something polished — sit it next to Kling O3 for restyle work and pick whichever wins each shot. Gen4 Image is the most useful when downstream work will go through Gen4 video, because the aesthetic carries through cleanly.
Pricing is metered per generation and shares the Martini wallet, so you avoid paying both Runway's subscription and a separate API bill. Workspace billing handles attribution per member. Because Runway models live on the same canvas as Sora 2, Veo, Kling 3, and Seedance 2, teams routinely build hybrid workflows — Imagen 4 for the still, Gen4 for the motion, Aleph for the polish pass — without rebuilding the project. For agencies that already standardized on Runway, Martini is the cleanest way to keep using it while gaining multi-provider redundancy.

Frequently asked questions
How does Runway Gen4 compare to Sora 2, Veo, and Kling 3?
Gen4 is the most consistently brand-clean for advertising, Veo wins on photoreal cinematography, Sora 2 wins on multi-shot narrative, and Kling 3 wins on raw motion fidelity. Most teams use them together on the same canvas.
What is Runway Aleph used for?
Aleph is the video-to-video model — feed in existing footage and it restyles, swaps environments, or transforms the aesthetic while preserving motion. It is the strongest V2V model on the canvas alongside Kling O3.
Is Gen4 Image the same as Gen3 Image?
Gen4 Image is Runway's newer text-to-image model, tuned to match Gen4 video's color palette so chaining the two produces a consistent visual language across stills and motion.
Do I need a Runway subscription?
No. Martini provides hosted access to Gen4, Aleph, and Gen4 Image — you pay with Martini credits and never need a separate Runway plan.
Can I combine Runway with other providers in one workflow?
Yes. A common pattern is Imagen 4 for the still, Gen4 for the motion, then Aleph for a polish pass. Every model lives on the same canvas so chaining is trivial.
Does Gen4 generate audio?
Audio support varies by model variant. For voice or music, route the workflow through ElevenLabs or Fish Audio in the same canvas and stitch the audio onto the Gen4 clip.
