A one-time 125 credits, US$0/month; the plan is called Free and the official site labels it Free forever. The core quota is a one-time 125 credits, not a monthly grant; the official FAQ says these 125 credits never expire, but they also never reset, so once they are gone the only way to generate more is to upgrade or buy credits (top-ups start at 1,000 credits). Asset storage 5GB. Only some generative models are included for testing concepts, not the full model line-up. What 125 credits actually buys, using the site's own conversion figures: Gen-4.5 costs 60 credits per 5 seconds, Gen-4 Image 1080p 8 credits per image, Turbo 2 credits per image, which is roughly 2 five-second Gen-4.5 clips, or 15 images. The official site lists No watermarks and 4K upscaling from Standard upwards, and those two rows are not listed for the free plan. Commercial-use rights for the free plan are not explained on the pricing page. (Read from runway.com/pricing including the on-page FAQ on 2026-08-09)
15 Velo minutes per month, with 1 seat, 1 voice clone and 1 avatar video per month. Minutes are consumed by generation, rendering, voiceover, translation, avatars and agent workflows. On features the free plan gets the full editor, prompt-to-video, document-to-video, screen-recording clean-up and basic support. Watermarks work two ways: sharing by link is watermark-free (official wording: Share videos without watermarks), but downloaded files carry a watermark by default (official wording: Watermarked downloads by default), and watermark-free downloads require an upgrade to Pro. The reset date, what happens when the quota is used up, and whether the free plan may be used commercially are all unpublished. (Read from usevelo.ai/pricing on 2026-08-09)
