Product updates

Keep up with Runway’s latest product updates and improvements

Resize formula editor. Load pages faster.

A few upgrades to make working in Runway smoother, especially for teams building big, complex pages.

Resize formula editors

You can now resize the formula editor with a simple drag.

  • The editor starts out small by default, just like before.
  • But now you can stretch it up to 80% of your screen — ideal for writing longer logic.

Small changes, big impact

Optional row numbers in databases

Need to reference a specific row? You can now enable Row Number by clicking Customize → Columns → Row Number in the top-right corner of any database.

  • Hidden by default — shows up only if you want it.
  • Great for scanning long tables without sorting or filtering.

Lazy loading for block rows on pages

Pages with lots of content now load way faster.

  • Blocks are loaded as you scroll, instead of all at once. No change to how things look or scroll — just a snappier feel.

Loading states for database cells

Database grids now show shimmering loading placeholders when calculations are still running. This makes it clear that the system’s still crunching numbers.

Block resizing. Exporting for all users.

Two highly requested upgrades, now live for everyone.

Drag to resize blocks on a page

Need more room for a driver label?

You can now resize blocks by dragging their edges, just like spreadsheet columns.

  • Works when blocks are laid out side by side in the same row.
  • Resize widths with a simple click and drag.
  • No need to rebuild layouts or guess at proportions.

Makes it easier to tidy up pages, and see the information you need.

All roles can now export (with safeguards)

Exporting to CSV is now available to all user roles, not just Admins.

  • Managers, Members, and Guests can now export models and databases.
  • Any restricted fields or rows are automatically excluded.
  • What you’re allowed to see is what you’re allowed to export.

This keeps your data sharing flexible, while respecting every permission rule you’ve set.

Activity History, leveled up

A better way to see what changed — and when

The new Activity History gives you a precise, navigable trail of every update made in your scenario.

  • Clickable links to open changed drivers, models, or queries.
  • See both relative and exact timestamps.
  • Save any version of a scenario as a locked snapshot.

This makes it easier to track changes or investigate issues.

Small changes, big impact

Redo now uses Cmd+Y

We’ve remapped redo from Cmd+Shift+Z to Cmd+Y — a more familiar shortcut for most people, especially if you're coming from Excel or Windows.

Country flags now show on Windows

Country flags used to go missing in the Windows emoji picker. That’s now fixed — you’ll see all the same emoji options as Mac users.

Centered month labels in comparison view

When you compare scenarios with variance columns, the month label now appears centered across the group — making reports easier to read at a glance.

New Rippling fields, and other improvements

Here’s what’s new in Runway this week:

Sync more data from Rippling

You can now pull in Country and Work Email as dimensions from Rippling.

Just trigger a re-sync — they’ll show up automatically in your model.

Group-by is now more flexible

We’ve extended our recent database sorting improvements to Group by:

  • Group by now lives at the top of your database view, alongside Filter and Sort.
  • You can choose a specific date or rollup to determine how values are grouped — just like you would when sorting.

Compare view shows the actual scenario name

The Customize dropdown now shows the name of the current scenario, so it’s easier to tell which one you’re in.

Go to Customize → Compare → Scenarios to check it out.

Chart upgrades for clearer stories

Here’s what’s new:

Roll up chart data by month, quarter, or year

You can now adjust chart rollups to match your reporting cadence.

  • Works on time series charts like bar, line, and area.
  • Pick Monthly, Quarterly, or Annual from Chart settings → Rollup.
  • Choose when the Fiscal year starts to line things up the way your business actually runs.

Cleaner chart legends when comparing scenarios

We cleaned up how chart legends look and work:

  • Simplified labels are now the default.
  • All new charts now show legend by default.
  • Attribute labels are sorted consistently, so they show up in the same order everywhere in Runway.

Small changes, big impact

Here’s what’s new:

Insert drivers faster with shortcuts

You can now insert drivers above or below using keyboard shortcuts — just like you would in Excel or Sheets.

  • Cmd + Option + = → Insert driver above
  • Cmd + Option + – → Insert driver below

Shortcuts are also available in the right-click menu.

Smarter Segment by in databases

  • Search for the segment you need without scrolling.
  • Type a new name to instantly create a new dimension.

Improved time-series view in databases

When you're modeling directly in a database, but want a clean time-series view, you can now hide or show formulas just like you do in driver tables.

Find your place with ‘Reveal in sidebar’

Lost in a complex model?

Click Reveal in sidebar (or hit Command/Ctrl + Shift + S) to jump to where you are in the page tree — without scrolling through the sidebar.

Description fields and customized database rollups

Here's what's new:

Add context with driver descriptions

You’ve always been able to add a description to a driver, but until now it was only displayed in the detail pane.

You can now show and edit them directly in tables — right alongside formulas and actuals.

  • The new description column lives right in databases, pages, and models.
  • It’s fully editable from either the column or the driver detail pane.
  • Supports multiline text, undo/redo, and copy/paste (line breaks included).

Perfect for callouts, handoffs, or remembering why “Operating Margin” exists.

More flexible rollups and sorting in databases

We’ve made database rollups easier to read, and sorting easier to control.

  • Each database column now shows a “rollup pill” to indicate what time range it's using to summarize values. The default is Last close, but you can click to change it.
  • Choose from built-in summaries like Sum, Avg, First → Last, or a specific date.
  • You can now control how each filter sorts — pick a specific date, a dynamic range like This month, or use a summary value like Average or Sum.

Small changes, big impact

  • Filters are now searchable and keyboard-friendly. Use arrow keys to navigate, and hit Enter to select.
  • Escape closes just the filter you’re editing, not the whole menu.
  • Filter popovers close when you click outside, fixing a bug where dropdown menus could be shown stacked on top of each other.
  • Driver cells shimmer when recalculating. That means if something takes a second, you’ll know why. You’ll also know when calculations complete

Formula upgrades, and accounting-friendly formatting

Here’s what’s new — improvements that make your formulas more powerful, and your formatting more flexible:

Write smarter logic with AND() and OR()

Use AND() or OR() in your formulas to model multiple expressions at once. We support either option now.

This works with boolean expressions, numbers, dates, drivers, attributes, and even nested groups.

Pull numbers from dates

We’ve added helper functions that extract numbers from dates. Use them like this:

  • year(2025-03-08)2025
  • quarter(2025-03-08)1
  • month(2025-03-08)3
  • weeknum(2025-03-08)2
  • day(2025-03-08)8

They work on any date expression — whether it’s a literal date, or a reference to a driver. Helpful when you’re segmenting data, running rollups, or just trying to answer “what happened in Q3?”

Apply your accounting format globally

You can now control how negative numbers appear across your entire workspace.

Under global settings, choose from:

  • Default: -100
  • Parentheses: (100)
  • Accounting: $(100)

This makes it easier to standardize formatting across pages — without adjusting individual cells.

Quicker access to permissions

When you click Share in a page, you’ll now see a direct link to the full user access settings. So you can review, adjust, or lock things down — without losing your place.

Smarter charts, better databases

A handful of thoughtful upgrades that make everyday work in Runway feel better — especially for charting and data entry:

Charts that communicate better

Charts should look good and make your point clearly. We’ve added a few small touches to help with both:

Abbreviated units

Toggle values like 1M instead of 1,000,000, per chart.

Simplified legends

When comparing scenarios, show just the scenario name (not the whole driver).

Precision where you need it

Change the number of decimal places right from the driver detail pane, without switching views.

Database improvements

Pin your formulas

Keep actuals or forecast formulas fixed for a driver as you scroll, so you always know what’s driving your numbers. Use Alt + Cmd + P to toggle.

Use Tab to move like you’re in Excel or Sheets

Pressing Tab now moves to the next cell and saves your input. Just the way you expect.

Smoother modeling

Some updates don’t shout — they just make everything feel better. This batch is all about that: less friction, more flow, and features that just work.

Insert drivers exactly where you want them

You can now insert a new driver above or below any existing one. Just right-click a driver name, like you would in a spreadsheet.

And if you want to move even faster, hit Cmd + Option + = to open the driver context menu from your keyboard.

Smarter drag-and-drop

Reordering drivers feels more polished:

  • A blue line shows exactly where your driver will land.
  • Drill-in rows move together as a unit.

More options, wherever you work

The Duplicate and Add dimension options aren’t just for model pages anymore. You’ll now find them in the 6-dot menu anywhere you work with drivers.

Faster grids, consistent UI

We’ve migrated the model page to our new grid engine. It still looks the same, but now you can load 10x more rows without slowing down.

Collapse or expand everything

For long nested tables, use Cmd/Shift + Click to collapse or expand all sub-sections in the left navigation at once. Helpful when you need a quick reset.

Discard filter changes

The trash icon now lets you undo any filter changes in driver tables — so it’s easier to experiment, see what happens, and back out cleanly.

Default date range

Whether you're setting up a new page, building a forecast, or writing a formula, you now have more control over how dates work — by default, and by design.

Set one date range for your Runway org

Tired of adjusting the date range every time you visit a new page or open a detail pane?

We've made adjusting dates a global setting in Runway.

You can set a Default date range for your entire org under Settings → Default date range. Any new pages or databases will automatically use this range — unless you override it at the block or page level.

Reference fixed time periods in formulas

Sometimes you want a formula to shift with time — like “last month.” Other times, you want it anchored to a specific window — like Q2 of last year.

The formula editor now accommodates both options. By referencing Specific date ranges, you can lock a formula to a fixed period. Great for benchmarks, campaign retros, or anything that depends on a specific historical time range.

New Runway Docs

We’ve upgraded our documentation! Here’s what’s new:

Clearer structure

Everything’s organized the way real teams actually use Runway. Whether you’re modeling for the first time, or bringing your whole team in, the new Runway Docs are built to get you unblocked and back to work.

Find answers faster

The Docs include a built-in AI assistant that answers questions as you go. It’ll help you troubleshoot, look up syntax, or explain how something works.

And if you still need help, we’re just a message away.

Easier onboarding for your team

Need someone to model their own budget? Run a scenario? Contribute to planning?

Just send them the Docs — they’ll be up to speed in minutes.

Available inside Runway

You don’t have to leave Runway to find the answer. Click the Help icon in the top right, and open the docs right inside the app.
