Assessment

What it does well

  • Consistently the strongest aesthetic defaults in image generation
  • Clear tiered pricing with a 20 percent annual discount
  • Fast GPU hours scale predictably from 3.3 to 60 per month across the tiers

Where it falls short

  • No free tier at all, so evaluation costs USD 10
  • Generations are public and remixable by default, and Stealth Mode is restricted to the USD 60 Pro and USD 120 Mega tiers
  • Midjourney's terms grant it a perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable licence to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, and distribute content users input

Privacy and data control

Midjourney's terms grant it a perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable licence over content users input, and state that content is publicly viewable and remixable by default. Privacy requires the Pro or Mega tier through Stealth Mode. No model training opt out is named for lower tiers.

The longer read

Read the licence before you use it for client work

Midjourney’s terms are unusually broad: a perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable licence over what you put in, with generations public and remixable unless you pay for the USD 60 Pro tier or above. For personal creative work that is a normal trade. For a client brief under an NDA, the entry tier is not appropriate and you should budget for Pro from the start.
