Video generation runs on prompts describing motion, which is harder to type than to say. Typally puts your words into Runway the moment you release the key, in whichever field you left the cursor.
Yes, we build Typally. That is also why the section on Runway's built-in option is honest: people who switch after trying both are the ones who stay.None for prompt entry. The interface is typed.
Describing movement in text is unnatural — camera path, subject action, pacing, transitions. Most people type a static description and wonder why the video does not move the way they imagined.
In practice people use it for: Generation prompts, shot descriptions, iteration notes, and the brief for a sequence.
Because Typally types at the system level rather than plugging into Runway, setup is the same everywhere:
Install, sign in, and it waits in the tray.
Put the cursor in the field you are about to fill — Runway decides where the text lands, not Typally.
The recording lasts exactly as long as you do.
Prompts sit in a constrained box with a length limit. Draft longer descriptions elsewhere and trim.
Typally types into the prompt box, so describing motion — camera push, subject turning, how the light shifts — costs about as long as saying it. Motion is what typed prompts consistently under-specify, and it is the reason generated clips come out feeling static.
Someone getting static-feeling results describes the shot aloud — camera pushing in slowly, subject turning towards it halfway, light shifting as they turn. The generated clip finally has motion in it.
Describe the shot the way a director would call it out loud, including what moves and how fast. Motion is the thing typed prompts consistently under-specify.
Prompts sit in a constrained box with a length limit. Draft longer descriptions elsewhere and trim.
No. Prompts are typed into the interface.
Because describing movement in words is unnatural to type and quite natural to say. That gap is where dictation helps.
Yes, into a document first, then trim each shot down to the prompt box.
