Tiny Desk AI FAQ
What is Tiny Desk AI?
A meme where AI puts new people into Charlie Wilson’s Tiny Desk performance of “Outstanding”. This site makes your own version from your photos.
Is this made by NPR or Tiny Desk?
No. Tiny Desk AI is an unofficial fan tool and is not affiliated with NPR or Tiny Desk Concerts.
What song is in the Tiny Desk AI meme?
“Outstanding” by The Gap Band, from The Gap Band IV (1982), sung live by Charlie Wilson at his Tiny Desk concert in June 2023.
Does my video include the song?
No, your video comes without sound, for copyright reasons. Add it when you post: in TikTok, tap Add sound and search “Outstanding Gap Band”; in CapCut, use Audio, then Sounds.
How many photos do I need?
Between one and five. There are five spots (left, center and right singer, the lead singer and the saxophone) and you choose which ones to swap. Any spot you leave alone is played by our house band.
Can I put a celebrity or a coach in it?
No. Only people who agreed to be in the video. No public figures and no children.
What do I get?
An 18-second, vertical 9:16 MP4 in 480p (480 × 854), with no watermark and no sound, ready to post.
How long does it take?
Usually 5 to 10 minutes. You can close the page: the video appears in My videos when it is ready.
Is this the Outstanding Tiny Desk AI template?
Yes, in effect. Instead of a video-editor template, you upload 1 to 5 photos and get the 18-second vertical desk-concert video with your people in it. No editing app needed.
Can I use a different song?
Yes. Your video comes without sound, so you can add any song you like when you post.
What if it fails or looks wrong?
A failed render is given back to your account automatically. If a finished video is clearly wrong, contact us within 7 days and we will re-run it or give the video back.
What happens to my photos?
They are used only to make your video, stored privately, and deleted after your video is finished. Your video stays in My videos for 30 days, so download it before then.
Can I use a pet photo?
Not yet. People only for now.
What will I see on my card statement?
LINK.COM* TINY DESK AI. Payments are processed by Stripe and sold through Link, Stripe’s checkout service, which also adds any sales tax or VAT at checkout.
Can I get a refund?
If you haven’t made any video from a purchase, you can get a full refund within 7 days. See the refund policy.
