LIVINGSTON, NJ, Dec 18, 2025 – Runway has signed a contract with CoreWeave for AI cloud services. The deal supports scaling and accelerating Runway’s advanced video generation models. Runway will use CoreWeave’s AI cloud platform with integrated software and data tools. The setup is intended to speed model development and improve computing efficiency.
“AI is becoming core to how companies build and operate, and they need a cloud platform that can match that shift with performance, efficiency, security and scale. That’s CoreWeave,” said Brian Venturo, co-founder and chief strategy officer of CoreWeave. “Runway has established itself as a pioneer in generative video across both the tech industry and Hollywood’s leading creative studios. We’re proud they trust CoreWeave as they continue to scale and innovate across a growing range of industries.”
“Runway’s models are redefining everything from filmmaking to the training of large-scale simulation engines,” said Anastasis Germanidis, co-founder and CTO of Runway. “That level of ambition requires a reliable, scalable AI cloud platform that allows us to accelerate our research and serve a wide range of customers. CoreWeave’s integrated solutions will be key to our ability to research, train and productize with speed and efficiency, and we look forward to unlocking new opportunities through this long-term strategic collaboration.”
Runway will run training and inference on CoreWeave’s NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems. It will use W&B models for observability and publish models on W&B Inference, running on CoreWeave’s AI cloud platform. Runway will also use CoreWeave AI Object Storage. The combined stack supports high-throughput GPU workloads for Runway’s AI models across cloud environments.
CoreWeave cites third-party benchmarks to support its AI cloud performance claims. It points to MLPerf benchmark for AI workloads and top Platinum ranking in SemiAnalysis ClusterMAX 1.0 and 2.0. CoreWeave says it is the only AI cloud to earn Platinum in both versions, which assess performance, efficiency, and reliability.
