Model terms and usage rights
Review the provider terms and model-specific restrictions before publishing. Vyi credits do not grant a provider subscription or a blanket commercial license.
What does Tiny Desk AI make?
It prepares a small-room concert concept from your portraits and sends image references and scene direction to Vyi’s video generation service. No reference video is used. This independent tool is not affiliated with NPR or the Tiny Desk Concerts series.
Is the preview a generated video?
No. It is a local storyboard showing your selected portraits and three camera intentions. No photo is uploaded for this preview, and no credits are deducted.
Can I make a duet or play every part?
Choose The duet for two portraits, One-person band to repeat a face, or Full band for up to five people. Each selected photo is sent as a separate image reference; the video model may change faces or role assignments.
Which length and video quality can I select?
This page uses Seedance 2.0 Face: 5 or 10 seconds at 720P, in portrait or landscape format. The displayed credit cost updates with your selection. No reference video is required or submitted.
Will it recreate a specific performance or song?
The brief asks for a new fictional session. It does not supply an existing recording, an artist’s voice or a licensed song. The sound toggle enables generated audio, but a specific song, vocal or soundtrack is not guaranteed.
When do my photos leave my device?
Photo selection and storyboard preview happen in your browser. After you sign in and explicitly generate, the selected portraits are uploaded to Vyi storage and sent to the configured generation provider as image references. See the Privacy Policy for service data handling.
What if a generation fails?
Vyi tracks your submitted task and handles credit recovery for failed jobs. Open My creations to inspect its status before retrying. If you only dislike a completed result, that is different from a failed task; check the current refund policy.
Can I use the video commercially?
Only use portraits you have permission to process. Check the model provider’s terms and the rights in any music or other material you add. This page does not grant a blanket commercial or music license.
