ElevenLabs Scribe v2 pricing: $0.22/hour plus add-ons
ElevenLabs lists Scribe v2 at $0.22 per hour, plus $0.070 for entity detection and $0.050 for keyterm prompting. Sum your hours, then compare per-minute STT.

ElevenLabs lists Scribe v2 at $0.22 per hour. Entity detection ($0.070 per hour) and keyterm prompting ($0.050 per hour) are separate lines, so one hour with both add-ons comes to $0.34. Sume STT 1.0 is priced per audio minute: $0.01 per minute, or $0.60 for an hour.
Vendor numbers are as written on the ElevenLabs API pricing page, read 2026-09-30. Sume's rate is from the Video inspect docs.
How much does one hour of Scribe v2 cost with add-ons?
Add the lines you turn on. The table uses only the three per-hour figures from the pricing page.
| What you enable | Per hour |
|---|---|
| Scribe v2 | $0.22 |
| Scribe v2 + entity detection | $0.29 |
| Scribe v2 + keyterm prompting | $0.27 |
| Scribe v2 + both | $0.34 |
How do I budget for my own hours?
Multiply the row you need by the audio hours you expect per month. For 40 hours with both add-ons that is 40 x $0.34 = $13.60.
What is the Sume STT 1.0 price for the same hour?
Sume STT 1.0 has one rate per audio minute. Sixty minutes is 60 x $0.01 = $0.60. The docs list no entity-detection or keyterm line for it, so there is nothing to add on top. Completed results return text and words[] word-level timings. This is a price comparison of numbers only; it says nothing about accuracy or feature parity.
What limits apply to a Sume STT request?
Omit duration_seconds and Sume reserves one minute; the maximum is 10 minutes per request. For an hour of audio, split it into chunks of at most 10 minutes; see transcribe long audio files.
