How it works

Get Started in 3 Steps

  1. Choose a model ID

    Select a public catalog model ID and review its endpoint and current starting price.

  2. Configure RunAPI

    Set RUNAPI_API_KEY before making the endpoint request.

  3. Verify the result

    For asynchronous endpoints, poll the same endpoint until the Task reaches a terminal status.

Hermes Agent + Runway Questions

Can I use Runway video generation in Hermes Agent?

Yes. With RunAPI configured as a provider in Hermes Agent, the agent can call the Runway endpoints shown on this page using your RunAPI API key.

Can Hermes Agent generate the first frame with another model?

Yes. Hermes Agent can create a starting image with an image model, then pass that image URL to Runway as the first frame.

Can Hermes Agent choose between generating and restyling video?

Yes. The Runway line covers new video generation and editing of existing footage. Hermes Agent picks the endpoint and model version per request.

Which model ID should I use?

Choose a public model ID from the version table. Each ID exposes the endpoints shown for that version.

Does this guide configure a chat model?

No. This Model Line uses the endpoint workflow shown here and is not presented as an agent chat model.
