Classification Rationale
All 3 models unanimously agree on AI Native classification - Midjourney is a text-to-image generation tool where AI constitutes the entire product; the tool cannot function without AI as users prompt the system to generate images. All models agree on Image content, Design vertical, Low data exposure risk, and Subscription pricing. Function mapped to Creative (closest standard option to Image Gen) as the tool's primary purpose is AI-powered image creation.
