Video To Text bills transcription by media duration. The stored media duration keeps millisecond precision, but billing rounds the duration to the nearest second before calculating credits.

How credits are calculated
Section titled “How credits are calculated”Credits are based on the media duration and the selected mode. Video To Text rounds the media duration to seconds, then applies the mode’s per-minute credit rate.
For example, a 90.4 second file is billed as 90 seconds. A 90.5 second file is billed as 91 seconds.
Task responses include billedCredits, which shows the actual credits used for that transcription task.
