What they are
Midjourney
Midjourney is a text-to-image AI that produces high-quality, stylistically distinct images from written prompts, accessed entirely through Discord or a web interface. It is used by illustrators, graphic designers, content creators, and marketers who need original visuals without a camera or traditional software. Image quality and artistic range are among the highest available from any AI image tool, though the learning curve for prompt crafting is real and outputs are not always predictable.
Patreon
Patreon is a membership platform where creators charge fans a monthly or per-creation fee in exchange for exclusive content, community access, or perks. Podcasters, artists, writers, and video creators use it to build a predictable income stream outside ad revenue. It takes a percentage cut of earnings rather than charging an upfront fee, which makes entry easy but gets expensive at scale.
