Pros and cons

Ray32

Pros

  • One-time credit packs with no subscription, and credits that do not expire
  • Supports up to 16 keyframes, HDR and 16-bit EXR export from Luma's Ray 3.2 model
  • Four workflows in one web interface, including Video Edit and Reframe
  • States clearly that it is independent of Luma AI
  • Downloads are MP4 without watermarks

Cons

  • Operating company, address and legal jurisdiction are not disclosed
  • A 10-second 1080p text-to-video clip costs 180 credits, more than the 160-credit Starter pack
  • Text and image clips are limited to 10 seconds
  • No free tier and no public API of its own
  • Generated content is subject to Luma AI's terms, and the site's own terms do not cover commercial use

Runway

Pros

  • Combines video, image and audio generation and editing in one workspace
  • Offers Runway's own Gen-4.5 plus third-party models such as Seedance 2.0
  • Creative Agent builds videos from a conversation

  • Free plan with 125 credits that do not expire

  • Standard and Pro credits do not roll over at the end of the month
  • Some App Store reviewers complain about the cost of failed or unusable generations
  • 4K upscaling is unlimited only on Pro and Max
