Midjourney AI Image Generator: Features & Pricing

Midjourney is a subscription-based AI image and video creation platform. Its web workspace turns prompts and reference images into visual concepts, then lets you organize creations, personalize styles, and continue refining selected results.

What can Midjourney do?

The Create workspace generates images from an Imagine prompt and can use image prompts, style references, and character or object references. The Editor supports cropping, aspect-ratio changes, layers, erase and restore brushes, smart selection, inpainting, outpainting, retexturing, and image downloads.

Midjourney also offers variations, Remix, upscaling, folders, moodboards, and personalization profiles. A still image can be animated into a five-second video, with optional motion instructions and loop settings.

Plans and important limits

Midjourney currently lists Basic, Standard, Pro, and Mega subscriptions. Monthly prices shown in its plan comparison are $10, $30, $60, and $120; annual billing is discounted. Relax-mode unlimited image generation starts with Standard, while Stealth mode is limited to Pro and Mega.

The service is not an unlimited free image generator. Video uses more GPU time than a regular image, higher-resolution video and private generation depend on the plan, and uploaded images have a 10 MB limit. Public creations may be visible to others unless the account plan and settings provide privacy controls.

Frequently asked questions

Can Midjourney turn an image into a video?

Yes. An uploaded or generated image can be used as the first frame for a short video, with optional text describing the motion.

Is Midjourney free?

Midjourney’s current documentation describes subscription plans rather than a permanent free tier. Check the official plan page before subscribing because prices and feature access can change.

Can I edit an existing image?

Yes. The web Editor can upload an external image and supports selection, erase, restore, layers, inpainting, outpainting, and retexturing.

Can Midjourney images be used commercially?

Commercial rights depend on the current Terms of Service and plan conditions. Review the official terms for your account and project before using output in client work, merchandise, or advertising.
