Runware
PaidUnified inference API for 400K+ generative AI models across image, video, audio, 3D, and LLMs
Tool Information
What is Runware?
Runware is a unified inference API that lets developers build AI features for image, video, audio, 3D, and large language model tasks through a single endpoint. It provides managed infrastructure, multi-model access, and usage-based pay-per-request pricing so teams can ship generative AI capabilities without managing their own infrastructure.
Core Features
Unified multi-modality API
Single endpoint and authentication for accessing thousands of models across image, video, audio, text (LLMs), vision, editing, upscaling, background removal, and 3D modalities.
400K+ models access
Integrate once to use open-source and proprietary models side by side, including frontier models from providers such as OpenAI, Google, and ByteDance, with standardized addressing and model switching via a string change.
Lowest-cost inference
Custom hardware and proprietary Sonic Inference Engine deliver up to 10× lower cost per generation or up to 90% lower than market rates with no quality tradeoff, using pay-per-request billing and no commitments.
Instant scale and orchestration
Auto-routed requests across regions with no infrastructure setup or capacity planning; supports batching any modalities in one call, REST and WebSockets, and per-task webhooks.
Image generation and editing
Support for text-to-image, image-to-image, vectorize, train, edit, upscale, and background removal operations with full parameter control for open-source models including LoRAs, ControlNets, VAEs, and custom uploads.
Curated model collections and playground
Hand-curated sets of SOTA, best image, video, audio, 3D, and LLM models ready to test instantly in a playground before integration.
Use Cases
- #1
Image generation and editing
Generate and edit images using popular open and closed models for tasks such as text-to-image, image-to-image, upscaling, and background removal.
- #2
Video generation
