Terms of Service

Last updated: November 5, 2026

Translations are provided for convenience. If they differ, this English version applies.

By using Tiny Desk AI at tiny-desk.online (the "Service") you agree to these terms.

1. The Service

The Service uses AI to make a short, silent video in the style of an office-desk concert meme from photos you upload. Results are AI-generated, vary between attempts and may not look exactly like the people in the photos.

Not affiliated with NPR. Tiny Desk AI is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to NPR or the Tiny Desk Concerts series. "Tiny Desk" is a trademark of its owner and is used only to describe the meme. We do not supply any song or recording; any music you add is your responsibility.

2. Accounts

You must be at least 18 and sign in with a Google account. You are responsible for activity on your account.

3. Photos and consent

You may only upload photos that you have the right to use, of adults who have agreed to appear in the video. You must not upload photos of children. You must not use the Service or its videos to:

  • deceive people into thinking a real person said or did something,
  • harass, bully, defame or sexualise anyone,
  • impersonate anyone, commit fraud, or break any law.

We may refuse, stop or remove any request or video and suspend accounts that break these rules. Our AI provider may also refuse photos under its own content rules.

4. Your videos

You keep whatever rights you have in your photos. Subject to these terms and the rights of the people shown, you may use and share the videos you make, including on social media. You give us a limited licence to process your photos and store your videos only to provide the Service.

5. Credits, prices and refunds

  • Videos are paid for with credits bought in one-time packs; one credit makes one video. There is no subscription.
  • Credits do not expire and cannot be exchanged for cash.
  • If a video fails or is refused by the AI, the credit is returned to your account automatically.
  • Because credits are used immediately to run paid AI models, completed videos are not refundable. By using a credit you ask us to perform the service immediately and acknowledge that you lose any right of withdrawal for that credit. If a purchase was made by mistake and no credit from it has been used, write to hello@tiny-desk.online within 14 days for a refund.
  • This does not limit any rights you have under consumer law in your country.

6. Availability

We aim to keep the Service running but do not guarantee it will always be available or error-free. We may change or end features, and will refund unused credits if we close the Service.

7. Liability

The Service is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. You are responsible for the photos you upload and for how you use the videos.

8. Changes and contact

We may update these terms; the date above shows the latest version. Questions: hello@tiny-desk.online.
