Calculate a usage-based transcription bill from minutes and a quoted rate.

Inputs are editable planning assumptions, not measured averages. Results exclude pauses unless your selected rate includes them.
Calculation method
Cost = audio minutes × price per minute. Rev’s published AI starting price is $0.25 per minute, and its human transcription starting price is $1.99 per minute. Sonix’s $10 per hour is equivalent to $10 ÷ 60 per minute. This tool excludes taxes, minimum charges and subscriptions.
Change the example inputs to match your file or quote. A calculated estimate does not establish the actual billed total or final file size.
