Ideogram is a freemium text-to-image model developed by Ideogram, Inc. using deep learning methodologies to generate digital images from natural language descriptions known as "prompts".

History

Ideogram was founded in 2022 by Mohammad Norouzi, William Chan, Chitwan Saharia, and Jonathan Ho to develop a better text-to-image model.[1]

It was first released with its 0.1 model on August 22, 2023,[2] after gaining $16.5 million in seed funding,[3] 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. Reviewers noted that the model appeared more capable of producing legible text than its competitors, including Midjourney.[4]

Earnings

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