Midjourney is a research lab's AI image generator that also makes short video. There is no free plan on the comparison page; Basic is $10 a month and includes standard-definition video only.
Midjourney describes itself as a community-funded research lab of 60 people that builds image and video models. Its homepage lists Image and Video Models among its projects and points users to the website to sign up, log in and explore, with support handled through Discord and a help page. The explore page shows prompts, images and videos made by the community.

Video is part of the paid plans. According to Midjourney's plan comparison page, the Basic plan includes standard-definition video only, with one concurrent Fast video prompt and no Relax video. Standard adds HD video and three concurrent Fast video prompts. Pro and Mega support more concurrent jobs, and Relax video, which includes SD, begins at Pro. The comparison page does not explain whether video starts from an uploaded image or a prompt, so check in the app.
Basic costs $10 per month. Plans renew monthly or yearly, and the yearly Basic option is $96, which is $8 per month paid upfront. The page uses a dollar sign without naming the currency, and it does not mention a free plan or free trial. All plans fall under general commercial terms, and a company earning more than $1,000,000 in gross revenue per year must buy Pro or Mega.
The footer shows no company name, so we list none. Ownership and entity details are in the terms of service.
