Runway's New Tool Picks the Best AI for the Job — Regardless of Country

On July 23, 2026, Runway launched Media Router, a tool that automatically picks among different AI models for images, video, and audio. It chooses based on whether a developer wants quality, speed, or low cost. The models come from both American and Chinese companies. Customers include Adobe, Cloudflare, and Shutterstock. Runway treats country of origin as a setting, not a barrier.
