RunningHub
RunningHub runs ComfyUI workflows in the cloud with pay-per-run credits, no local GPU needed. See 2026 pricing from free credits to the $9.99/month plan.
About RunningHub
RunningHub is a cloud platform in the Business Management category built around ComfyUI, the open-source node-based workflow tool for AI image and video generation, letting you build and run ComfyUI workflows online without a local GPU.
What is RunningHub (2026 update)
RunningHub removes the need to set up ComfyUI locally by hosting the environment, popular models (Stable Diffusion, SDXL, Flux, FLUX.1 Kontext, CogVideo, and LoRAs), and high-performance GPUs in the cloud, so you can edit a workflow for free and only pay when you click Run. It targets creators and developers who want to run or publish ComfyUI-based AI apps without managing infrastructure, and it doubles as a marketplace where users browse and run community-shared workflows or publish their own.
What is new in 2026
RunningHub describes itself as an AI agent-powered content creation platform, expanding from raw ComfyUI workflow execution into an infinite canvas, publishable AI apps, and native agent features layered on top of image and video generation. The platform adds hundreds of new AI apps daily along with the latest ComfyUI nodes, and it now offers a model API so developers can call workflow execution directly from their own applications rather than only through the RunningHub interface. It also lets creators publish their own workflows as monetizable AI applications for other users to run.
Key features
- Cloud-hosted ComfyUI with high-performance GPUs, no local setup required
- Pay-per-run credit billing: editing and testing a workflow is free, credits are consumed only on Run
- Access to popular models (Stable Diffusion, SDXL, Flux, FLUX.1 Kontext, CogVideo, LoRAs) without manual downloads
- Community workflow library you can run with your own inputs
- Ability to publish your own workflow as a monetizable AI app
- API access for integrating workflow execution into other applications
Pricing in 2026
RunningHub runs on a compute-credit model: you get free credits on signup, and credits are only consumed when you actually run a workflow, not while editing or testing it. A commonly cited paid tier is the Personal plan at $9.99 per month, which includes about 50,000 credits, translating to roughly 4,166 image generations or 833 video generations depending on workflow complexity. Some pay-per-use model pricing is published separately, for example Wan 3.0 video generation at $0.01 per second of 480P output. RunningHub also offers higher tiers and API pricing beyond the Personal plan; check the official site for the current full tier list and exact credit costs per model, since these are usage-based and can change.
| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | Free credits on signup, free workflow editing, pay only when you run a workflow |
| Personal | $9.99/month | About 50,000 credits/month (roughly 4,166 images or 833 videos) |
| Higher tiers / API | check the official site | Additional credits and API access for heavier or developer usage |
Who should use it
RunningHub fits creators and developers who already work with ComfyUI workflows and want cloud GPUs and model hosting without buying or renting their own hardware, plus anyone who wants to browse and reuse community workflows instead of building from scratch. It is also useful if you want to package a workflow into a publishable AI app for other users.
Limitations and alternatives
Because billing is credit-based and tied to model and resolution choices (as with the per-second video pricing), cost can be harder to predict than a flat subscription, especially for video generation at higher resolutions. The platform’s exact full pricing tier list beyond the Personal plan was not clearly published in the sources checked, so confirm current tiers and per-model credit costs on the official site before running a large batch of workflows.
Common alternatives for cloud ComfyUI hosting include RunComfy and RunPod for renting cloud GPU environments to run ComfyUI, which are frequently compared against RunningHub for cost and setup convenience.

How does RunningHub pricing work?
RunningHub bills on a pay-per-run credit system rather than flat access. Some models are priced per use, for example Wan 3.0 video generation at $0.01 per second of 480P output, so cost depends on the model and resolution you choose.
Do I need my own GPU to use RunningHub?
No, RunningHub hosts ComfyUI, popular models, and high-performance GPUs in the cloud, so you can run workflows from a browser without local hardware or environment setup.
What are alternatives to RunningHub?
RunComfy and RunPod are commonly compared alternatives for renting cloud GPU environments to run ComfyUI workflows.
