Read the full assessment
Midjourney is well suited to exploring visual directions through repeated prompts, references and variations. Its web workflow makes it easier to organize that experimentation, while the plan choice depends on how quickly and privately you need to work. Standard is a reasonable option for regular image exploration because it adds relaxed image generation. Pro becomes relevant for private work and certain commercial organizations, not simply for more monthly images.
