Pricing
Pay for what you use, in 15-minute blocks
A session uses 6 credits for every 15 minutes it is in use. The recorder and the transcriber are switches: +2 and +3 credits for each 15 minutes they are on. No subscriptions, no caps, no day rates. Credits you buy never expire.
Example prices — not final. Prices, pack sizes and the rate card are still being decided.

How credits are used
- 15-minute blocks. A session is charged for every 15 minutes it is in use. A block that has started counts whole; there is nothing smaller.
- In use means the studio is sending, or someone is working in the session — a producer reviewing takes with no studio sending included. Listeners on their own are free.
- Add-ons are switches. The recorder (+2) and the transcriber (+3) cost extra for each 15 minutes they are switched on. Both start off unless you choose otherwise, and the engineer switches them in the Companion.
- Idle sessions park themselves after 15 minutes with nothing happening (you can change it). A parked or reserved session costs nothing.
- Each session on its own. Two rooms live at once each use their own credits.
Included in every block
- Full-quality stereo from your DAW, plus camera and screen, and the downmixes for every listener.
- Up to 15 listeners and 5 collaborators with talkback at once. Need a bigger room for one session? Ask us.
- Markers and takes, chat, the Companion for the engineer, and the Recording Light for the room.
Never cut off mid-block
- A block is paid for when it starts, so a session always finishes the 15 minutes it is in.
- Auto-reload can buy a pack by itself when credits run low, with a card you save for it and a monthly limit you choose. Every reload is emailed with its invoice.
- If the next block cannot be paid, the engineer is warned in the Companion and the studio's menu, and the session is parked as its paid block ends: the recording, markers and codes are kept, and it carries on once there are credits.
- Guests are never shown anything about money.
Questions
What uses credits?
A session in use: the studio sending, or a collaborator or the engineer working in it. 6 credits for every 15 minutes, plus the recorder and the transcriber when they are on. Reserving a session is free, and so is a parked one.
Is there a daily cap?
No. Every 15 minutes costs the same, all day. Bigger packs bring the price per credit down instead.
Do credits expire?
Credits you buy never expire, the emergency buffer included, and are not refundable for money. The free credits a new account starts with last 90 days.
What happens when we run out?
A session is never stopped in the middle of a block it has paid for. Auto-reload or the emergency buffer keeps it going; without them, it is parked when its block ends, with nothing lost. A new session needs one block's worth of credits outside the buffer to go live.
Can I get an invoice for my client?
Yes. Every purchase has an invoice addressed to your company, with your tax ID and a reference you choose, such as a PO number. Your statement lists every session's credits, with its client and project, and a CSV to attach.
