Where it worksWebWeb
Model features and GPU-time charges differ by plan.
Usage & termsGPU time and privacy vary by tierStealth requires Pro or Mega
Fast GPU allocations per month are Basic 3.3 hours (200 minutes), Standard 15 hours, Pro 30 hours, and Mega 60 hours. Relax images are unlimited from Standard; Relax SD video is included on Pro and Mega.
Generated work is public by default. Stealth does not hide work posted in an open Discord channel; companies with more than $1 million in annual revenue need Pro or Mega for commercial use.
Use references for the subject and instructions for the change
The V8.1 and V8.2 Edit Model accepts up to four reference images. It can combine elements into a new composition, change a character or object’s perspective, and revise an image from written instructions.
The same model supports targeted changes and extending the canvas in the Editor. Earlier V7 Omni Reference has different restrictions, so a workflow should be matched to the model being used.
Keep the aesthetic separate from the character
Style References guide colors, lighting, textures, and medium rather than copying the objects or people in a picture. A style weight changes how strongly that reference affects the result.
This offers a way to keep character portraits, imagined locations, and related promotional artwork in a shared visual treatment. Style References can work alongside Edit Model references and image prompts.
GPU time, privacy, and commercial terms
-
Revise the composition in an image editor
-
The web Editor combines selected-area regeneration, reframing, and extending the image. It accepts personal images as well as Midjourney artwork, supports layers, and provides upscaling and download options for the selected result.
-
Budget generation time and privacy separately
-
Subscriptions allocate Fast GPU time; Standard and above also provide slower Relax image generation. Stealth mode is limited to Pro and Mega. By default, generated work is publicly viewable and can be remixed by other users.
-
Commercial permissions have specific conditions
-
Midjourney allows subscribed users to use their generated assets commercially under its terms. A business with more than $1 million in yearly gross revenue needs Pro or Mega; another user’s upscaled image remains that user’s asset. Output rights are limited by applicable law.
