## Structured homepage reading guide

This guide organizes the site's public product information; the complete homepage text follows below. [Create](https://ai-tinydesk.com/#generator) · [Photo tutorial](https://ai-tinydesk.com/how-to-make-tiny-desk-ai/) · [Comparison](https://ai-tinydesk.com/tiny-desk-ai-vs-capcut/).

### 1. What is AI Tiny Desk?

AI Tiny Desk at ai-tinydesk.com is a one-photo video tool for a roughly 19-second vertical concert. One consenting adult becomes the lead in the opening and close-up while the supporting band retains distinct fictional identities. Standard generation uses ByteDance Seedance 2.0 Mini through EvoLink at 480p. One-time packs start at $9.99. Sound and silent MP4 downloads are available; purchasing credits does not grant music rights.

### 2. The five-shot timeline

| Time in accepted sample | Shot | Identity |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 0–1.375 s | Opening lead | Uploaded portrait |
| 1.375–6.667 s | Keyboard and backing vocals | Fixed fictional band |
| 6.667–13.000 s | Lead close-up | Same uploaded portrait |
| 13.000–16.375 s | Saxophone and corner keyboard | Fixed fictional band |
| 16.375–19.042 s | Final group | Fixed fictional band |

### 3. Make it in three steps

1. Choose a clear photo of one consenting adult and sign in with Google or an email code.
2. Select the Tiny Desk template, review the mode's credit cost, and start generation.
3. Reopen your result from your account, inspect all shots, and download the sound or silent version.

### 4. Photos that work and photos to avoid

| Works best | Avoid |
| --- | --- |
| One consenting adult alone | Children, celebrities, or people without permission |
| Clear face, visible eyes, even light | Sunglasses, masks, heavy filters, covered faces |
| Sharp JPG, PNG or WebP up to 5 MB | Group photos, tiny screenshots, blurry crops |

### 5. One-time credit packs and before you pay

| Pack | One-time price (USD) | Credits | Price per credit (USD) | Standard Tiny Desk outputs |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Single | $9.99 | 1 | $9.99 | 1 |
| Trio | $19.99 | 3 | $6.66 | 3 |
| Squad | $29.99 | 5 | $6.00 | 5 |

### 6. CapCut, general AI tools, and this service

| Route | Input and effort | Result and cost to check |
| --- | --- | --- |
| CapCut or another editor | A permitted clip/photo and a matching template | Availability, export fees, length and music permissions vary; a matching free template is not verified |
| General AI model | Portrait, prompt, references and manual assembly | Model limits, identity drift, inference charges and licensing |
| AI Tiny Desk | One adult portrait in the browser; prepared concert workflow | About 19 seconds; 1 credit for Standard; $9.99 / $19.99 / $29.99 packs; failures restore credits |
