Workflows
Workflows give you granular control over every step of your creative process. Choose a Runway-created workflow or build your own, no coding required, then publish it as an endpoint and call it from Runway Dev.
Why Workflows?
Combine multiple models, modalities and tasks
Chain generations without writing the orchestration yourself. Connect outputs directly to inputs and the pipeline runs end to end.
One single API endpoint
However many steps it has, a workflow is one API endpoint. Update it anytime, and the endpoint you call never changes.
Create reusable templates
Build it once, use it forever. Save workflows as templates so your team can produce consistent, high-quality results without starting from scratch.
Automate repetitive tasks
Stop repeating the same steps manually. Combine prompting, generation and refinement into one workflow that runs from a single call.
Build your own workflow
Explore easy
to use Recipes
If a reusable pipeline is already available, use that instead. Recipes package common creative tasks into a ready-to-use endpoint you can call from one request.

asked questions
What is a workflow?
A workflow is a visual, multi-step creative pipeline that connects models, prompts and media operations into one reusable process.
Do you support models from other labs?
Yes. Workflows can combine supported Runway models with select models from other leading labs.
When can I use a newly released model?
Newly supported models become available as workflow nodes after they are released for Runway Dev.
How much does a generation cost?
A workflow run is billed for the individual model and processing steps it uses. See the model documentation for current pricing.
How do I evolve a workflow?
Edit and republish the workflow. Your application keeps calling the same endpoint while the implementation behind it changes.
Can I try a model before integrating it?
Yes. Build and test the full workflow visually before publishing it as an endpoint.
Which model should I use?
Start with the output you need, then choose the strongest model for each step. Recipes provide useful starting points for common use cases.
