Midjourney Acquires Astrology App Co-Star to Expand Consumer Reach

Co-Star currently serves 4.3 million monthly active users, offering personalized horoscopes and compatibility assessments that blend artificial intelligence with human-authored insights. The platform allows users to map their astrological birth charts and share them within a social network, a model that contrasts sharply with Midjourney’s current utility-focused image generators.

This acquisition marks a curious expansion for Midjourney, which is simultaneously exploring ventures in the medical and wellness sectors. By integrating the Co-Star team, the lab gains seasoned developers with specific expertise in consumer-facing mobile applications. This move could provide the necessary infrastructure for Midjourney to finally launch a standalone application, moving its primary operations away from the Discord server that has defined its existence since inception.
