## Hidden costs and limits

- Add-on features stack up: speaker diarization ($0.002/min) and PII redaction ($0.002/min) each add ~26% to the base Nova-3 price. A fully-featured transcription pipeline (Nova-3 + diarization + redaction + keyterm prompting) costs $0.0130/min vs $0.0077 base, a 69% premium.
- Multilingual Nova-3 costs 19% more than monolingual ($0.0092/min vs $0.0077/min). If your audio is consistently in one language, always use the monolingual model to save.
- The $200 free credit is not renewable, once spent, you are on metered billing.
- Whisper Cloud (self-hosted Whisper model via Deepgram) is limited to 5 concurrent connections on all plans. If you need Whisper specifically at scale, you may need to self-host.
- Growth plan requires a $4,000/year minimum commitment. Credits are pre-paid and redeemed against usage, if your usage drops, unused credits do not roll over (verify terms).
- Audio Intelligence (summarization, sentiment, topics) uses a separate per-token pricing model ($0.0003-0.0006/1K tokens) that is difficult to estimate in advance since token count depends on audio content length and complexity.
