Luma is a web app for generating and editing video from text, images or existing footage. You describe a shot, supply a reference frame, or upload a clip, and the service renders a short sequence that can be extended, restyled or relit. Its Ray model handles camera moves and character consistency across shots, while agent mode produces several variations of a brief at once. Third-party models are available in the same workspace, so you are not tied to one generator. Output suits ads, product shots and pre-visualisation. Plans are credit-based, starting with 10,000 credits a month.
Runway is a suite of generative AI tools for video production. Its Gen models create video from text or images, while motion brush and camera controls let you direct movement within a shot. The platform also includes image generation, background removal, inpainting, frame interpolation and video-to-video restyling — features aimed at professional editors and studios as much as creators. Projects can be assembled in the browser with timeline editing and exported at production resolutions. Pricing is credit-based, with free trial credits and paid plans for higher volumes and resolution. It is one of the most complete AI video toolkits, though complex shots still require iteration and editorial judgement.
Pika is a generative video platform that turns text, images or existing clips into short videos. You describe a scene or upload a still, and the model produces motion with adjustable aspect ratios and durations suited to social formats. Effects like Pikaffects add playful transformations, while the editor supports extending clips, adding sound and refining prompts. It is aimed at creators producing short-form content rather than long cinematic sequences. The free plan includes limited credits with a watermark; paid tiers remove the watermark and add credits and higher resolution. It is a fast way to test ideas, though results still need several attempts and careful prompting.
