How much does Midjourney cost?
Midjourney’s four plans cost $10, $30, $60, or $120 per month in USD when billed monthly. Annual billing costs $96, $288, $576, or $1,152 per year, respectively—equivalent to $8, $24, $48, or $96 per month. Midjourney says annual billing saves 20%, and the full year is paid upfront.

Which Midjourney plan should you choose?
- Basic is the lowest-priced plan. It includes 200 minutes of Fast GPU time per month, but not Relax image generation. That allowance is GPU time—not a guaranteed number of images.
- Standard adds 15 Fast GPU hours per month and unlimited Relax image generation, making it a step up for regular image creation when Relax mode suits your workflow.
- Pro doubles Standard’s Fast time to 30 hours and adds unlimited Relax SD video generation and Stealth Mode, which keeps images and videos private.
- Mega offers 60 Fast GPU hours per month, while sharing Pro’s listed Relax and Stealth features. Its image-concurrency limit is the same as Pro’s; its higher listed concurrency applies to Fast video prompts.
The official comparison lists maximum concurrent prompts separately by job type: Basic allows 3 Fast image prompts; Standard allows 3 Fast or Relax image prompts and 3 Fast video prompts; Pro allows 12 Fast or 3 Relax image prompts and 6 Fast or 3 Relax video prompts; Mega allows 12 Fast or 3 Relax image prompts and 12 Fast or 3 Relax video prompts. Extra GPU time is listed at $4 per hour. (Official plan comparison)
Does a Midjourney subscription include production API access?
Do not assume a subscription authorizes production API access. Midjourney’s Terms of Service say automated tools may not be used to access, interact with, or generate assets through its services. Midjourney announced on July 16, 2025 that it was beginning to investigate an Enterprise API, but that announcement does not establish current general availability or API pricing. I could not verify from the official materials cited here whether an authorized production API is currently available or what it would cost. Confirm availability and terms directly with Midjourney before building an integration. (Terms of Service; Enterprise API announcement)
