By Steven Van · 2026-07-23

A Media Router applies a user's saved preference for cost, quality, or latency instead of manual per-task model selection.

[Runway](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/runway>) has introduced Media Router, which picks a video, image, or audio model for each request instead of requiring users to choose one manually. Rather than selecting a model per task, users set a preference once, cost, quality, or latency, and the router applies it automatically.
