Where Midjourney wins
Midjourney tends to be the safer pick when you already live in the ecosystem it plugs into and you value the features it ships first.

| Best for | Ecosystem loyalists | Price-per-power buyers |
| Free tier | Yes — capped | Yes — capped |
| Team features | Strong | Strong |
| Try it first | Free tier | Free tier |
