Magnific vs Runway

Which to choose, and when

• To try one month on monthly billing: Runway is cheaper, Standard at $15/mo; the cheapest on Magnific is Premium at $20/mo.
• If you will use it for a full year: the entry plan billed annually is $144 on Runway and $174 on Magnific. Annual plans are usually paid up front, so they only pay off if you use the whole year.
• If you want Kling 3.0: both offer it. We don't yet have an exact official rate for it at either.
• If you want Seedance 2.5: both offer it. We don't yet have an exact official rate for it at either.
• If you want Seedance 2.0 Fast: both offer it. We only have an exact official rate for it on Runway, so only there can you work out a month's seconds before paying.
• If you want Seedance 2.0 Pro: both offer it. We only have an exact official rate for it on Runway, so only there can you work out a month's seconds before paying.
• If you plan to subscribe inside the iPhone app: we have no Magnific in-app prices to compare with its website; Runway costs the same in the app as on its website. Compared at US prices, which exclude tax on both sides.

There is no "better overall" verdict. Each point above fits one situation; choose by whichever matters most in yours.

Credit rules

Credits are not a shared currency: one Magnific credit and one Runway credit buy different things, so the counts cannot be compared directly.

Which models it offers

From each tool's own official pages (pricing or model pages). Which models a plan includes changes between versions; each model page gives its source and when it was last confirmed.
