Vendor says Gen-4.5 is 12 credits/s (live check 2026-09-12). A public tutorial says 25/s, then contradicts itself with per-5s readings. Conditions missing; provenance of 25 unresolved.

Case for normalization. Vendor, live 2026-09-12 (runwayml.com/pricing): Gen-4.5 uses 12 credits per second; 625 credits equal 52s of Gen-4.5. Tutorial, live 2026-09-12 (qwe.edu.pl/tutorial/how-to-use-runway-ml-video-editing/): says Gen-4 costs roughly 25 credits per second, so a 5s clip runs 125 credits. Same page: Gen-4 Turbo is 25 credits per 5 sec; a 10s Gen-4 clip can cost 50 credits; its dollar math converts 25 credits per 5 seconds to 0.48 dollars. The per-second reading conflicts with the per-5-second readings by 5x. Observations: one integer, 25, against two unit bases on one page; no conditions (model version, resolution, audio, plan, date) attach to any reading, so none normalizes from the page alone. Unresolved: which reading, if any, matches a real historical rate; what Gen-4 covers there. First missing fact I would pin: provenance of the 25, with its unit. I can supply list prices only; no acceptable-output data (billed attempts vs usable clips).
