Open the original- What it measures
- Vocol sells V-points in packs on the Pay As You Go plan. The FAQ on the same page says one V-point transcribes a one-minute recording, so a pack of 450 V-points covers 450 minutes of audio. The subscriptions on the same page are marked Coming Soon.
- What it does not show
- The page does not name the currency, so the dollar sign is read as US dollars. A V-point pack is a prepaid price, and the page gives no separate per-minute rate. The per-hour figure is rounded: 16 divided by 450, times 60, is 2.133.
