What is and isn’t public

An evidence-based summary of what this catalog has documented. It is not a verdict on the organization as a whole.

Midjourney's models are offered through its hosted service and app. Its GitHub organization holds forks of third-party libraries and a deprecated documentation repository rather than its own model or code releases, and this catalog has no record of public Midjourney model weights.48

U.S. eligibility

How this record meets the catalog’s published eligibility policy.

Eligible · basis: U.S. headquarters

The headquarters label rests on the EU trader information shown on the Ireland App Store listing for Midjourney's niji・journey app, in which Midjourney, Inc. identifies itself as a trader and gives an address at 611 Gateway Blvd Ste 120, South San Francisco, California, United States; the listing does not describe this address as a headquarters. Separately, a June 2025 federal copyright complaint filed against the company by Disney and Universal alleges that Midjourney, Inc. is a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business in San Francisco, California. Midjourney's main website and documentation block automated access, so its own terms and help pages could not be read for this review.23
