Midjourney compared with others
Compared with Stable Diffusion and DALL·E
“I tried a few alternatives like Stable Diffusion and DALL·E, but Midjourney stood out for how consistently “finished” the results look.”
What you get for free
- No free trial on midjourney.com or in Discord
- A limited trial only in the niji·journey phone app (iOS and Android)
The catch: You pay before your first image. On Basic and Standard your images are public. Keeping them private (Stealth Mode) needs Pro at $60 a month.
Cheapest paid plan: Basic, $10 a month ($8 a month if you pay yearly). About 200 minutes of fast generation a month.
Checked Oct 28, 2026 on the official pricing page. Limits change often.
