Lumen Trust Notes
Midjourney
All image generation happens on Midjourney's servers with no local option, and default plans make outputs publicly visible, creating real privacy concerns for commercial work. The training data provenance is undisclosed, and there is no free tier, limiting access for individuals and smaller organisations. Best used for mood boards and creative exploration; use the Pro Stealth plan for any client-facing or proprietary creative work.
Descript
All media is uploaded and processed on Descript's cloud; no offline or self-hosted editing option is available. The text-based editing paradigm is a genuine innovation that makes professional video editing accessible to non-technical users, reflecting strong purpose. Recommended for content creators and communications teams; note that Overdub voice cloning requires explicit consent from the voice owner before training.
