AI Images in KoalaWriter FAQs
- Are images automatically uploaded to WordPress or set as featured images?
Yes, this can be done through our WordPress plugin.
- Does using images in KoalaWriter use extra words?
The Standard and Premium image models do not use extra words. However, selecting a different image model will use extra words.
- Can I hotlink the images from my website?
Yes, we will store and host all images indefinitely. The hosting is designed for speed so you can use our image URLs to reliably serve the images in a very performant way.
- Can I use the images commercially?
Yes, our Terms of Service grants you all rights, titles, and interests to the AI images and text that KoalaWriter produces.
- Why Don't We Use Midjourney?
Midjourney doesn't provide an official API for AI images and prohibits automation in its Terms of Service. Using automation violates their terms, making any images produced unlicensed. Some AI tools sell images using unofficial Midjourney integrations, which is risky and against Midjourney's terms. We only use providers that offer commercial licenses for our users.
We are always wanting to offer the best possible AI images and if Midjourney offers an API in the future then we will be happy to do an integration.
**Longer Answer **
Midjourney is a fantastic tool for creating AI images. But unfortunately, at this time, Midjourney does not offer any official integration or API.
This means we cannot create Midjourney images for our users that come with a commercial license.
Using automation to create images with Midjourney is strictly against their Terms of Service:
You may not use automated tools to access, interact with, or generate Assets through the Services.
By violating their terms you don't actually get a commercial license to use the images:
Subject to the above license, You own all Assets You create with the Services, provided they were created in accordance with this Agreement.
There are some AI writing tools that use unofficial Midjourney integrations and sell those AI images to their users. We find this to be an incredibly sketchy business practice since these tools are violating Midjourney's terms, selling images that they don't own any license to, and putting their users at risk.
We are committed to only using AI image providers that grant us commercial licenses to the images that we can pass on to our users.
