Reviewer scorecard
“Gen-4 changed my content workflow. B-roll that used to take a day to shoot now takes 30 seconds to generate. The consistency improvements make it actually usable.”
“The templates are gorgeous and the editor is intuitive. Perfect for portfolio sites, restaurants, and small businesses.”
“Still not perfect — you'll get weird artifacts and the occasional uncanny valley moment. But for 80% of use cases, it's good enough. And 'good enough' keeps getting better.”
“For non-technical users who want a professional site, it's genuinely the fastest path to something that looks good.”
“Video was the last holdout of 'AI can't do this well enough.' Runway just broke through. The implications for content creation, advertising, and filmmaking are seismic.”
“No meaningful API, no code export, locked-in hosting. A walled garden that developers should avoid.”
