Automated Runway Credit Renewal Tracking

Every Monday, WebRun opens Runway, reads the remaining generation credits and the next renewal date, keeps a matching reminder current in Google Calendar, and sends a WhatsApp message when remaining credits look too low to finish the video work planned for the week.

In short

How do I avoid running out of Runway credits mid-project?

Every Monday, WebRun checks Runway for the remaining generation credits and the next renewal date, keeps a matching reminder current in Google Calendar, and sends a WhatsApp message when the balance looks too low for the week's planned renders. This catches a tight credit balance before a video project stalls mid-render.

  • A tight credit balance gets flagged before a render stalls
  • The renewal date always stays accurate in the team calendar
  • Comfortable weeks stay quiet with no unnecessary message

Questions, answered

Does it buy more credits or upgrade my plan automatically?

No. WebRun only reads and reports the balance. Buying extra credits or changing plans stays a decision you make yourself in Runway.

How does it decide the balance is too low?

It compares the remaining credits against what a typical week of planned renders needs, based on the pace you have set, and flags it when the two do not line up.

Will the renewal reminder stay accurate if my billing date shifts?

Yes. It checks Runway's actual renewal date each Monday and updates the Google Calendar event if it has moved.

Put this on autopilot.
