How can I monetize my AI-generated background website? (alien.top)

Some of you might remember my previous post in this subreddit. In a nutshell, I've created a website that generates AI-powered background images, somewhat like Unsplash, and it's available for free to anyone. It's incredibly simple to use.

I create a few images each day using Midjourney and select the best ones to share on the website. After posting in a few communities, the feedback has been mostly positive, and many people have shown interest by joining the newsletter.Though monetization is still a ways off, if I want to start making a profit from it in the next three months or so, what should I do?

I've had a few unsuccessful SaaS experiences and have mainly worked as a freelance designer, so I'm pretty clueless about how to monetize a website or blog. I'd greatly appreciate any advice you can offer！

BTW, the site is https://vavebg.com if you want to check more.

Those are really nice!

I think offering a generous portion of the pics for free and then having a premium tier could work. Maybe you can add the ability for x requests/month for premium, where you specifically generate themes they may need. I think it would need to be a low-cost yearly sub to make sense. You would need a huge collection of pics at that point though
