Introducing Runway MCP
You can now generate images and videos in any MCP-compatible agent without ever leaving your workflow.

Today we're launching Runway MCP (Model Context Protocol), an MCP server that connects Runway to all of the agents and coding tools you already work in. Now, you can generate polished images and videos without switching context – just ask your agent to use Runway.

A complete generation studio, inside your agent

Once connected, you can generate product images, marketing videos, hero assets and more directly from your conversation. Pass your agent of choice a product URL, a reference image or a text prompt and Runway handles the generation. The output comes back in the same window.

Runway MCP gives you access to all of the latest state-of-the-art models—Gen-4.5, Seedance 2.0, GPT Image 2, Kling 3.0, Nano Banana Pro and more—so you're always working with the best available tools for the job without leaving your preferred workflow.

What you can build

From product marketing to full website builds, Runway MCP works across a wide range of creative and production use cases, including:

  • Send your agent a product page, and get back a polished marketing video ready for launch.
  • Drop in a product image, and generate a range of fully new visual assets alongside your website copy and code.
  • Write a line of dialogue and set the scene, then let Runway produce a character-led product ad.
  • Build apps and sites that need visual content without ever leaving your editor.
Getting started

Setting up takes seconds. In Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP-compatible agent, add Runway as a custom connector using the Runway MCP server URL and sign in with your Runway account. No separate API key is required – generations are tied to your existing Runway plan.
