Comparison of Midjourney and Promptus AI

1. Pricing & Cost per Image

• Midjourney: Starts at $10/month for ~200 fast images (~5¢ per image). Larger plans lower the effective cost but remain several cents per image.
• Promptus: Paid tiers start at $7/month for 5,000 credits. With 6 credits ≈ 1 image, that’s ~833 images → ~0.84¢ per image. The Designer plan ($29 for 25,000 credits) gives ~4,167 images → ~0.70¢ per image. There’s also a $49 lifetime license option for unlimited offline generations.

👉 Result: Promptus images are ~5–7× cheaper than Midjourney.

2. Creative Control

• Midjourney: Powerful prompt parameters (aspect ratio, stylize, seeds), Style Reference, and Style Tuner for brand consistency.
• Promptus: Focuses on simplicity, with a clean web interface and customizable styles. It integrates ComfyUI for advanced workflows in paid tiers.

3. Editing & Workflow

• Midjourney: Built-in Editor with inpainting (“Repaint”), outpainting/pan/zoom (“Reframe”), and remix.
• Promptus: Lighter workflow. Editing happens mostly through prompts; with ComfyUI integration, advanced users can design custom workflows.

4. Licensing & Ownership

• Midjourney: Outputs belong to you, but companies making over $1M/year must use Pro or Mega. Public generations are remixable unless Stealth mode is used.
• Promptus: Outputs belong to you, with fewer commercial restrictions. The one-time license grants local/offline unlimited usage.

5. Accessibility

• Midjourney: Requires subscription after ~25 free trial images. Available as a web app (formerly Discord-based).
• Promptus: Offers a one-time free trial (1,000 credits). Then you can choose subscription or lifetime license. Available as a web app + ComfyUI integration.

Bottom Line

• Choose Midjourney if you want a polished platform with a community, advanced editor, and powerful style controls.
• Choose Promptus if you value cost efficiency, ongoing affordability, or offline generations with ComfyUI flexibility.
