What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
Credible vendor with a shipping API for one variant, but absent benchmarks/pricing and gated access to the most relevant (Worlds/Robotics) variants make it premature to commit; worth tracking via the broadly-available Characters surface.
Next
Request API + Worlds early-access; benchmark GWM Avatars (Runway Characters, already in the web product + API) for a single conversational-character use case while monitoring for published metrics and pricing.
