Livingston-based CoreWeave, Inc. has announced a new contract with Runway, an international artificial intelligence company, to provide cloud solutions aimed at advancing Runway’s next generation video generation models. Under the agreement, Runway will use CoreWeave’s AI Cloud platform and integrated software to improve the efficiency and scalability of its AI models.
Runway develops tools for generating and editing images, video, and audio using text, image, or video prompts. Its technology is used by film studios, gaming companies, robotics developers, and other industries for applications such as autonomous driving simulations and live avatar interactions.
Brian Venturo, Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer of CoreWeave said: “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. 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.”
Anastasis Germanidis, Co-Founder and CTO of Runway added: “Runway’s models are redefining everything from filmmaking to the training of large-scale simulation engines. 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.”
As part of the collaboration, Runway will utilize CoreWeave’s NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems for large-scale model training and inference tasks. The partnership also includes access to W&B Models for workload observability as well as making Runway’s models available on W&B Inference powered by the CoreWeave AI Cloud Platform. Additionally, Runway will leverage CoreWeave AI Object Storage for data accessibility without extra fees or egress charges.
CoreWeave has demonstrated strong performance benchmarks in artificial intelligence workloads according to MLPerf standards. It is currently the only AI cloud provider holding top Platinum rankings in both SemiAnalysis ClusterMAX 1.0 and 2.0 evaluations.
