Short answer
The available evidence does not confirm a current Runway Gen-2 subscription price or whether Gen-2 is available through the web app for a particular account. Runway’s public subscriber-model catalog says it covers every model currently available to subscribers, but the evidence here does not establish a Gen-2 availability or pricing term.

The available developer-model information also does not establish a Gen-2 API price. Treat subscription credits and production API costs as separate questions; neither has a verified current Gen-2 price in the evidence summarized here.
Historical Gen-2 estimates—not current prices
A CometAPI article describing Runway’s 2025 plans reported the following prices and credit allowances. These are third-party historical figures, not current Runway terms. It estimated about 5 credits per second of Gen-2 video, but did not give a separate cash price per second. (CometAPI’s 2025 pricing article)
| Plan described in the article | Historical price reported | Credits reported | Article’s approximate Gen-2 estimate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $0 | 125 one-time credits | No reliable total can be inferred |
| Standard | $15/user/month, or $12/user/month billed annually ($144/year) | 625/month | About 125 seconds/month |
| Pro | $35/user/month, or $28/user/month billed annually ($336/year) | 2,250/month | About 450 seconds/month |
| Unlimited | $95/user/month, or $76/user/month billed annually ($912/year) | 2,250/month in Credit Mode; Explore Mode described as unlimited at “relaxed rates” | No precise Explore Mode estimate |
| Enterprise | Custom quote | Custom | Not specified |
The Standard and Pro estimates follow the article’s rough conversion: 625 ÷ 5 ≈ 125 seconds and 2,250 ÷ 5 ≈ 450 seconds, assuming all credits go to Gen-2. These are not guaranteed amounts of usable video or dollar-per-second prices. The article does not clarify how retries or other credit-consuming work affect output. (CometAPI’s 2025 pricing article)
Two details in that historical account do not support a precise budget: it pairs Basic’s 125 one-time credits with Gen-2 access “up to 16 seconds via Extend Video” without explaining how those limits relate; and it does not quantify Explore Mode’s “relaxed rates.” (CometAPI’s 2025 pricing article)
Is there a Runway Gen-2 production API price?
The evidence available here does not establish a current Gen-2 API price or confirm Gen-2 API availability. Runway’s developer documentation is the relevant place to check supported models and rates. A general statement about API access, or a rate for a different Runway model, is not enough to calculate a Gen-2 production budget. (Runway Dev model documentation)
Do not use the historical subscription-credit estimate as an API rate or substitute a price for Gen-4, Gen-4.5, or another model. The CometAPI article’s concrete API reference is for Gen-4 through CometAPI; it does not establish Gen-2 API availability or terms. (CometAPI’s 2025 pricing article)
What to confirm before budgeting
Before committing to Gen-2 for a project, confirm directly with Runway the information that applies to your account and intended channel:
- Availability: whether Gen-2 is available to your account through the web app, API, or another channel.
- Billing basis: whether charges use subscription credits, API credits, or another unit. Do not assume those balances are interchangeable.
- Price and limits: the applicable model identifier, rate, supported duration, and usage limits.
- Purchase terms: currency, billing unit, and any monthly-versus-annual commitment for a subscription.
Budgeting takeaway: Treat the 2025 prices and credit estimates as historical context only. Current Gen-2 web availability and subscription pricing remain unconfirmed here, as do Gen-2 API availability and cost. Do not commit to a Gen-2 budget until Runway confirms terms for your account and intended channel.
