    Pricing notice: transcription 10 s = 3 AP from Sep 9 (05:00 UTC)

    Speech-to-text (POST /v1/audio/transcriptions) moves from 1 AP to 3 AP per 10 seconds of audio on 2026-09-09 05:00 UTC — about $0.11 per hour of audio, following our cost×3 policy (the current rate has been below provider cost). Update (Aug 26): effective date moved from Sep 2 to Sep 9 — we are keeping current rates through the Sep 1–4 student-lecture week. Announced well past our 7-day-notice rule for increases. Timestamps (verbose_json), srt/vtt output and the new /skills/stt spec shipped this week; a premium high-accuracy lane (ElevenLabs Scribe) is being evaluated — see the benchmark on the docs blog.
