Android speech, offline SenseVoice and the on-device writing model cost nothing. This page only prices Groq and Gemini, where you pay the provider directly with your own key. Prices were checked in October 2026 and change; the provider's page always wins.

How this is calculated
- Gemini audio is counted at 32 tokens per second (Gemini token docs). Groq Whisper is billed per hour of audio.
- Transcript tokens come from words per minute, at roughly 100 tokens per 60–80 English words. Japanese and Chinese tokenise differently.
- The Gemini Live line assumes the transcript is billed as text output, which is the cautious choice.
- Writing styles send the transcript plus your prompt; the estimator ignores the prompt overhead and any minimum billing per request.
- Your real numbers are in Settings → Cloud & privacy, which lists tokens used request by request.
