What is Runway?

Runway is one of the best known general AI video tools, used for film, advertising and social video, with editing tools around its models. Its usage policy restricts sexually explicit content and nudity.

What is Corny Studio?

Corny Studio is an adult AI video studio. You design a fictional adult woman trait by trait, accept her look, and from then on direct clips of her: you pick what she wears, how she is posed and where it happens from hundreds of cards, or write the shot as a sentence. Every take comes back as a clip with sound, up to ten seconds long, in portrait or wide, and it is yours to download, post or sell. The same engine is open to developers through an API.

Corny vs Runway: the key differences

This is less a comparison of quality than of what is allowed. Runway is built for general work and draws its line at explicit content. Corny is built for adult video of fictional adults, and its catalogue covers everything from a sundress to explicit scenes.

How each one charges

Runway sells plans with credits for its tools. Check its own pricing page.

Corny charges in credits and shows the price of a take before you render it. A longer, bigger or sharper take costs more. New accounts start with 50 credits. Plans add credits every month, from $24.90 for 1,000, and a bigger plan makes each credit cheaper.

Which one should you pick?
