Working in a job where thereâs a lot of image creation?
Or do you need to improve the images you have?
The application of AI in marketing is broad, but Hubspot reports that 38% of us already use it for content creation.
Maybe youâve tested other image LLMâs but found they werenât quite up to scratchâŚ
âŚOr maybe youâre reading this, having not dappled in AI image generation at all.
If youâre on the fence, consider this your sign to try Midjourney.
As someone who has tested 10+ AI image generation apps over the past year, I can say Midjourney on a browser is what I use most.
Today At a Glance đ
Itâs the easiest to learn
You will generate HQ imagery in 2 minutes
Unlimited imagery for your brand for $144 / year
Worth a mention: A FREE video editing tool I use
Worth your time: The #1 SEO blog generator
Unlike most competitors (Dall-E, Canva), Midjourney consistently produces the best images.
This means:
The technology is much easier to learn; and
You get high-quality results faster.
Unlike using Midjourney on Discord, the .com version is designed for you to simply click through what youâre looking for rather than generating your own prompts.
Lost? Let me show youâŚ
âIâm looking for an accurate depiction of a young girl, standing on a dock in NH summer.â This was what Modjourney generated as a starting point.
Midjourney will autogenerate variations, too. This is the highest standard of accurate image generation from AI apps that we have.
Midjourney generates HQ variations. This is useful if youâre looking at creating a montage of a similar image.
Again, Midjourney makes it incredibly straightforward to vary an image.
By using Midjourneyâs variation panel, you can get the exact shot you were imagining.
The total time to create the exact variation I imagined was just two minutes.
Talk about a time-saver. đ¤Ż
Sometimes, things sound too good to be true.
And sometimes, they are just that good.
Midjourney.com has become my go-to app for creating images, whether itâs for my clients, this newsletter, workshops, or website banners.
Keep in mind that itâs in the alpha stage, so youâll need a paid Midjourney account ($144/year) and have already created 100 images.

Then, you should have access to the .com browser version. Which I prefer because its 100 times easier to use.
Descript, my favorite video editing tool (because I have zero video editing skills and say âummmâ alot) releases Underlord, its AI editing assistant.
â
ââŚIf youâre marketing internationally, this oneâs for you. Youâll soon be able to convert your own into 25 different languages depending on target demographic.
âDescript has a free plan that is well worth your time checking out. Bottom line? Itâll make video creation and editing easier. |
Anthropic has just introduced Claude 3.5 Sonnet, a faster and better-seeing version of their base models.
Sonnet gets props for visual reasoning tasks, such as interpreting charts and graphs, and accurately transcribes text from imperfect images â even handwriting.
The bigger news, versus this incremental upgrade, is âArtifactsâ, which seems to be targeting Notion and business users.
