Use the official Midjourney workflow with Fast or Turbo speed, reference images, and 4-image results.
This page stays tool-first: jump straight into Midjourney generation, then scroll for the details. Start with text-to-image or reference-driven generation, receive 4 results per request, create follow-up Vary sets from the image you like most, and open our lower-cost image upscaler when you want HD enhancement.
Fast and Turbo produce the same Midjourney style quality. The difference is waiting time and credits, so the right choice depends on whether you are exploring broadly or iterating under time pressure.
10 credits
About 1 minute
Use Fast when you want a lower-cost default path. It is the best entry point for first-time users, prompt exploration, and free-credit trials.
20 credits
About 20 seconds
Use Turbo when you need quicker feedback loops. It is better for rapid art direction, client sessions, and dense creative iteration where time matters more than credits.
Vary + Upscale
Keep iterating without changing tools
Each Vary action costs 1.5x the current speed tier. When you want HD output, use our lower-cost image upscaler instead of spending Midjourney credits on native upscale.
The page only promises the capabilities that are already wired into the current component and API route. That keeps the landing experience aligned with the real product instead of over-selling features that are not available in this interface yet.
Write a prompt in natural language, choose an aspect ratio, and receive a 4-image Midjourney result set from a single request.
Upload up to 5 reference images and describe the result you want to create. Fewer references usually mean stronger control over the final composition.
Every generation returns 4 images so you can compare composition, lighting, and detail before choosing the direction worth refining.
Select the image you prefer, then run Vary (Subtle) or Vary (Strong) to create a new 4-image set from that specific result.
The tool is designed so new users can act first and read later. These are the minimum steps needed to go from first visit to a refined image set.
Choose Fast for better cost efficiency or Turbo for faster iteration. Then decide whether you want pure text-to-image or reference-guided generation.
Describe the scene, subject, and style you want to see. If you uploaded references, describe the target result instead of giving editing instructions.
Review the 4 images, select the strongest one, and run Vary (Subtle) or Vary (Strong). When the composition is final, open the image upscaler for HD output.
These answers match the current Midjourney tool behavior on this page rather than describing unrelated or future-only features.
Sign in to get free credits and start with the tool immediately. Fast mode is designed to be the easiest first run because it uses fewer credits than Turbo.
Fast usually takes about 1 minute and costs 10 credits. Turbo usually takes about 20 seconds and costs 20 credits. The output quality target stays the same; the tradeoff is speed versus spend.
Midjourney is built around comparing multiple interpretations of the same prompt. Returning 4 images at once helps you pick a direction before you spend more credits on refinement.
Vary uses 1.5x the currently selected speed tier. That means Fast Vary costs 15 credits and Turbo Vary costs 30 credits.
Yes. Upload up to 5 reference images and describe the final result you want. In practice, using 1 to 2 references usually gives you better control than using the full limit.
The Upscale Image button opens our regular image upscaler instead of using Midjourney native upscale. That keeps HD enhancement available while avoiding the higher Midjourney credit cost.
Generate a 4-image set first. Once one result is close, use Vary to keep the composition moving in the right direction and switch to the image upscaler only when you need HD output.
