Runway releases Praxis-1 robot model with open weights
An open-weight, Apache 2.0 robot policy model that runs on a single RTX 5090 lowers the entry bar for robotics labs and hardware startups that cannot afford proprietary stacks. Teams building manipulation systems can fine-tune it locally instead of licensing closed models like GPT-6 Astra, which Runway claims is 51 times costlier per task. Builders tracking video-to-action transfer, an emerging alternative to pure imitation learning, should benchmark it on their own hardware.
