- R · What Makes It Special
- Runway's Gen-3 Alpha (June 17, 2024), the first of its next-generation models trained on new infrastructure for large-scale multimodal training, jointly on videos and images, with major gains in fidelity, consistency and motion over Gen-2; temporally dense captions enabled imaginative transitions and precise key-framing, and it powered Text to Video, Image to Video, Motion Brush, Advanced Camera Controls and Director Mode, shipping with C2PA provenance. Runway retired it on July 8, 2026.
