Common questions
How is Runway's Consensus Profile calculated?＋
We pull every category where Runway appears, weight each Market Rating by how many sources ranked it, and average those into a cross-category profile. The confidence rating (currently Medium) reflects how many distinct sources covered Runway across all categories — 7 unique sources here.
What does Runway's confidence rating mean?＋
"Very High" means 7+ distinct review sources ranked Runway somewhere on our covered categories. "High" is 5–6, "Medium" is 3–4, "Low" is 1–2. Higher confidence = more independent corroboration, not necessarily a higher score.
What does it mean if Runway ranks #1 in some categories but lower in others?＋
Categories test for different things. Runway has 1 #1 placement across the consensus dataset. Top-tier in one category and middle-of-pack in another usually means the tool is optimized for one buyer profile — and that's signal, not noise.
Why does FutureFounder publish a Consensus Profile per tool?＋
Category rankings tell you which tool wins inside one slice. A profile tells you how the whole field — G2, Capterra, Product Hunt, Futurepedia, Tool Finder, AI Tools Directory, Reddit and FutureFounder — sees a single tool across every slice it shows up in.
