Data & enterprise terms

Retention, training use, regional processing and enterprise terms have not been summarized for this endpoint.

Caching

Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.

01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain

The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.

02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state

Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.

03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate

Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say

No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.

Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.

The record behind the model

Why it is included

Runway identifies its own creative models as proprietary and separates them from third-party offerings. Native ownership is cross-checked against its catalog and original release pages. Older releases inherit the family classification; historical weight terms were not independently recovered.
