LTX Studio vs. Runway
LTX Studio is the only AI video platform that connects storyboarding, generation, and timeline editing in a single workspace, built for production teams who need more than a clip generator in 2026. Runway works for quick, standalone content. If your projects have structure, LTX Studio is built for them.

Which platform is best for me?
LTX is best for
- Agencies juggling multiple client briefs who lose time switching between generation, storyboarding, and editing tools. LTX Studio cuts that to one workspace, one project
- Production teams who storyboard before they shoot: brief-to-storyboard in the same platform means fewer revision rounds and less misalignment before a single frame is generated
- Brand studios producing video, storyboards, and pitch decks for the same campaign, everything built, reviewed, and delivered without exporting between tools
- Teams where late-stage changes are expensive: connecting pre-production to production in one workflow catches problems earlier, when fixing them costs a fraction of the alternative
- Your output is individual clips for social, no narrative structure, no pre-production, no client handoff
- You've never needed a storyboard or timeline editor and don't expect to
why companies work with LTX
“It’s amazing how fast it can generate ideas”
I’ve spent half my time trying to explain what’s in my head, but with LTX Studio, I can just generate an image and say, ‘that’s what I mean.’ You still have to guide it, just like any good performance, but you’re in control. It’s amazing how fast it can generate ideas — it can accelerate the whole creative process.
Taika Waititi, Academy Award-winning Filmmaker & Director

What we like about LTX Studio is the consistency, so you can create your own universe
Pierre-Jean Bernard, Head of Digital & AI, L’Oréal–McCann Paris
“Freedom to dream, iterate, and go beyond boundaries”
The process allowed us to imagine without the boundaries that we usually have in real life. It gave us the freedom to dream, to iterate, and to add more elements during the editing process

“So much power and creative control”
We appreciated how LTX Studio felt like it was giving you so much power and decision making power and creative control over components
Can Misirlioglu, Executive Creative Director, CYLNDR Studios
"AI that's built for image creation and animation"
I was drawn to LTX Studio because of its use of 'consistent characters' but what I found really valuable from LTX was the ability to quickly storyboard my videos. It lets me quickly story board, visualize, and edit a sequence together as a template for my main project.
Lane L., Director
"Great tool"
I was drawn to LTX Studio because of it's use of 'consistent characters'. While their consistent characters are okay ... what I found myself really valuing from LTX was the ability to quickly story board my videos. It lets me quickly story board, visualize, and edit a sequence together as a template for my main project.
TC R., Video Producer
"AH-mazing"
I’m a musician and I don’t do live videos.. this allowed to present my art in such an amazing way. I love everything about it. It’s a blessing and you guys did an awesome job.. I truly don’t know how to thank you for creating this platform. It’s life and career changing.

"LTX Studio is my go-to AI video making tool"
LTX Studio is unlike anything I’ve used before. It’s an AI-powered filmmaking tool that turns scene descriptions into fully realized movie sequences, and what really sets it apart is its ability to maintain consistency across scenes and characters.
Veronica V., Team Leader VW Trucks
"Incredible!"
I have always wanted to make films and short stories, but lacked the technical capabilities and patience. LTX Studio is able to take my scripts, and accurately form them into short stories and films! I would recommend it to anyone, it's absolutely incredible.

FAQs
What is the main difference between LTX and Runway?
LTX unifies every production tool in one workspace—storyboarding, generation, and timeline editing all connected. Runway splits these across separate workspaces, requiring you to switch between different tools and tabs throughout your project.
Does LTX offer features that Runway doesn’t?
Yes. LTX includes a dedicated storyboard workspace and timeline editor fully integrated within one project. You can send and manage outputs seamlessly between tools without leaving your workspace—something Runway's separate tool structure doesn't support.
Is LTX Studio a better fit for agencies than Runway?
Yes, if your agency manages multi-scene campaigns with client deliverables. LTX Studio lets you run storyboarding, generation, and timeline editing inside one project, so when the brief changes at 5pm, you're not rebuilding across three tools. The ability to produce video, storyboards, and pitch decks in one workspace is built for how agencies actually work.
How does LTX Studio pricing compare to Runway?
Both platforms offer a free tier and multiple paid plans. Where LTX Studio separates itself is at the enterprise level: ISO 27001 certification, SSO, custom model training, and a dedicated account manager are included, not upsold. For teams currently paying for separate storyboarding and editing tools, LTX Studio also consolidates that spend into one platform.
Does Runway have a storyboard tool?
Runway doesn't have a dedicated storyboard workspace integrated into the production flow. In LTX Studio, storyboarding is built directly into your project, connected to generation and the timeline editor, so pre-production and production happen in the same place without switching tools or rebuilding context every time the brief changes.
