Midjourney
Type a few words and get back striking, artistic images with a look all their own.
Midjourney is the image generator people tend to show off. Even short, simple prompts come back looking polished and stylish, with lighting and composition that often feel closer to concept art or editorial photography than to typical AI images.
It started out inside Discord, and many people still use it that way, but the web app now makes it much easier to prompt, browse and organize your work. Tools for variations, upscaling, style references and editing let you nudge an image until it is just right.
There is no free plan; subscriptions start at $10 a month. Images are public by default on lower tiers, and getting precise results like exact text or specific layouts can take patience. For mood and aesthetic, though, it is hard to beat.
