Runway (standalone)

Runway's standalone platform is capable and the team continue to iterate seriously. My reservation for professional use is about workflow coherence rather than quality: if you are operating within a Firefly ecosystem, routing Runway through that consolidates your data handling, rights management, and billing in one place. The standalone platform sits outside that architecture. For personal projects and experimentation with no client data, the standalone platform is fine and the quality speaks for itself. For client work in an agency context, use the Firefly-integrated version and keep your stack coherent.
