To Stable Diffusion (via ComfyUI)
Community guide imagetoprompt.dev · Tools: ImageToPrompt
Moves: Prompt text (descriptive core) (partial). imagetoprompt.dev
Doesn't move: Midjourney parameters (--ar, --v, --s, --c, --q, --seed, --no); Personalization profiles learned from your rating history; Style codes and --sref libraries; Upscale/variation job trees; Stealth/publication settings. imagetoprompt.dev
Watch out for:
- Guide is vendor-written (ImageToPrompt sells prompt tools) and its Midjourney version claims are stale — it calls v6.1 the current version as of March 2026, while 2026 sources put V8.x as default. imagetoprompt.dev
- Negative prompts and weight syntax do not exist in Midjourney, so they must be authored from scratch, not converted. imagetoprompt.dev
- Midjourney's embedded PNG prompt metadata is not parsed by ComfyUI; the provenance chain snaps at the tool boundary (Numonic). imagetoprompt.dev

First-person account of running both tools: author keeps Midjourney Standard for quick artistic concepts and editorial work, and moved photorealism, custom-style LoRAs and volume generation to local Stable Diffusion, concluding most people should start with Midjourney and add SD only after hitting its limits. pxz.ai
