Ideogram is a freemium generative artificial intelligence website founded in 2022. Ideogram uses as a text-to-image model based on the generated prompt given by the user. Ideogram is often considered a major competitor to Midjourney, a similar artificial intelligence tool. On the free plan, users can generate up to 25 prompts daily. On the subscription plan, users can generate limitless images.

History[edit]

Ideogram was founded in 2022 by Canadians Mohammad Norouzi, William Chan, Chitwan Saharia, and Jonathan Ho.[1][2] It was first released with its 0.1 model on August 22, 2023,[3] after gaining $16.5 million in seed funding,[4] which itself was led by Andreessen Horowitz and Index Ventures. In the week following Ideogram's launch, at least 90,000 users were able to generate over 3 million images.[5]

Earnings[edit]

Ideogram earned $80 million[when?] after its 1.0 model release in 2024.[6]
