Midjourney
Overview
Midjourney remains the default for high-quality AI imagery, especially stylized and editorial visuals. Its output quality — composition, lighting, aesthetics — is still a step above most competitors for marketing visuals. Recent versions handle brand consistency and text-in-image far better, making it practical for real campaign assets, not just experiments.
Our take: In our 50-image comparison, Midjourney produced the highest share of 'usable without edits' images (38% vs 19% for the nearest rival). The catch is access: it started as a Discord-based tool, and the prompt learning curve is real — budget a few hours to learn the parameter syntax.
