Open the original- What it measures
- This is SpeechText.AI's own home page for its file transcription service. The Pricing section says 'Affordable pay-as-you-go pricing plans. No monthly fee, pay only for what you use', and lists each plan's price and transcription minutes. The page marks the Standard plan as popular. The page does not state a per-minute price for these plans.
- What it does not show
- The per-hour figure is the plan price divided by its minutes, times 60: $49 divided by 990 is $0.0495 per minute, and 60 times that is $2.97 (2.9697 rounded to two decimals). The page does not say whether unused minutes expire. The same vendor's API packages cost less per hour (see the API facts), and the two price lists conflict.
