Credits, without guesswork
Tiny Desk AI pricing
A video’s credit cost depends on its quality, not how many Band portraits you assign. Sign in and choose an available credit pack to purchase. Credit packs are one-time purchases, with no subscription.

What one video costs
Solo and Band use the same quality-based rates. The default is 720p. The Starter pack contains 100 credits; compare that balance with your selected quality before generating.
| Quality | Cost | Configured output |
|---|---|---|
| 480p | 100 credits | 19 seconds · 9:16 |
| 720p | 300 credits | 19 seconds · 9:16 |
| 1080p | 700 credits | 19 seconds · 9:16 |

When credits are used — and when they return
Credits are charged when a generation task starts, not only after delivery. A confirmed failed job returns the credits charged for that job according to the task’s refund handling.
A successful provider render can still need audio or storage recovery. That state keeps the existing task and charge while delivery is retried; it is not automatically treated as a failed render. Use the recovery action offered by the task rather than starting a duplicate.
AI quality can vary. An output that differs from your expectations is not the same as a confirmed generation failure. Review the terms and both acknowledgements before you create.
What you can inspect without generating
You can read the guides, watch the reference sample and select photos locally. The photo upload preview only shows your selected input. It is not a free AI-generated still or video.
New accounts do not automatically receive generation credits. A completed generation requires sufficient balance and an available generation service. This page does not promise trial credits, pay-on-delivery or a fixed render time.
The configured deliverable
The workflow targets a 19-second vertical video at your selected quality, with the reference audio combined during finalization and a private completed download. It does not promise two separate sound-on and silent exports.
Use My creations to track a submitted task and return to its download when ready. Posting platforms may apply their own audio and content rules.
