Midjourney
Midjourney is an image and video generation model you use through the midjourney.com web app, with community galleries on Explore and support routed through Discord. Version 8.2 is the current release, and the careers site describes ongoing work on both creative models and separate research projects.
Compared with general-purpose image APIs, Midjourney sells aesthetic control and community curation rather than raw throughput alone. Paid tiers add Relax mode for unlimited slower generations, Stealth mode to keep work private on Pro and Mega, and tiered Fast GPU hour pools that refresh monthly.
The company calls itself a community-funded research lab of about 60 people, with offices in San Francisco, London, and New York. It targets artists, designers, marketers, and hobbyists who want stylized images and short videos without running their own GPU stack.
