Runway offers Gen-4.5 and Aleph 2.0 enterprise deployments through Baseten
Runway says its Baseten partnership lets enterprises deploy Gen-4.5 and Aleph 2.0 in single-tenant environments. The offering includes fine-tuning on company data and reserved GPU capacity.
TL;DR
- Runway’s Gen-4.5 and Aleph 2.0 now have dedicated, single-tenant deployments through its partnership with Baseten.
- Enterprises can fine-tune on company data and deploy customized versions, according to the announcement Runway linked.
- Reserved GPU capacity is included in Runway’s enterprise offer.
Aleph 2.0 can start with an edited keyframe and carry the change across relevant shots. Single-tenant customers still authenticate against a shared control plane.
Gen-4.5 and Aleph 2.0
The October 14 announcement adds a dedicated deployment route alongside Runway Creative and the Runway Dev API, according to Baseten’s launch post.
The two models cover different production tasks:
- Gen-4.5: Generates video from text or images, with support for detailed scene direction, camera movement and visual styles. One example is animating a product image.
- Aleph 2.0: Edits generated or real footage, changing specific elements or restyling scenes while preserving surrounding details. It supports multi-scene videos up to 30 seconds at 1080p.
Fine-tuning and model licenses
Company-data fine-tuning is the creative draw. Enterprises can customize outputs around their brand, canon and content guidelines, according to the announcement Runway linked.
Licensing and infrastructure have separate owners:
- Runway: Licenses its proprietary model weights directly to the customer. That license governs fine-tuning.
- Baseten: Supplies the infrastructure to run fine-tuning and deploy the resulting model in a dedicated environment.
The companies say they jointly support deployments from customization through production serving. The announcement describes brand alignment as a fine-tuning goal, without publishing examples of customer-trained models.
Single-tenant GPUs and enterprise pricing
Each deployment runs in an isolated VPC in Baseten Cloud, rather than in the customer’s own cloud account, according to Baseten’s single-tenant documentation.
The deployment announcement specifies:
- Isolated workloads: Compute and scheduling are restricted to the customer’s organization, with dedicated GPU resources.
- Compliance coverage: Infrastructure operates under Baseten’s SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliance programs.
- Capacity scaling: Reserved GPUs serve video-generation workloads, with autoscaling for demand spikes.
Baseten lists single-tenant hosting on its Enterprise plan with custom pricing.
