Cloud credits

You probably don’t need this. Prontei is free on your computer, with no usage limits, and you don’t need an account to use it. Buying credits changes nothing about that.

Credits are for a computer that can’t run the models. To find out, test this browser or try a file in the app.

Buy minutes in the app

In the app you sign in with your email and the minutes are held by your account. The packs below are for the extension, with a credit key.

Prepaid minutes for the extension

No subscription, and the minutes last 6 months from purchase. Prices show in the currency for the country you’re connecting from.

Already paid and can’t see your key? Open the recovery link in your payment receipt. If you can’t find the receipt, write to oi@prontei.com.

Leave this empty to get a new key. If you fill it in, the minutes go to that key. It is checked here first, then sent only in a request to credits.prontei.com, never in a web address.

What a minute means

  • One minute of credit pays for one minute of audio. It is counted from the audio’s length, not from how long the transcription takes, and each part rounds up to the next whole second.
  • Long files go in parts of about five minutes. A shorter file is one part. Each part counts at least 10 seconds, because the provider bills that minimum.
  • If the provider fails or the upload is interrupted, that part isn’t charged. Parts already finished are.
  • The notice before sending shows how many minutes the job will use and what will be left.

What happens to your audio

Nothing goes to the cloud unless you choose it. When you do, the audio goes through the Prontei server to Groq, which transcribes it, and the text comes back to your browser. Prontei doesn’t store the audio or the text. See what each company keeps in the privacy policy.

The cloud is for files in the app and for transcript cards in the extension. Dictation and meetings stay on your computer.

Payment is handled by Stripe, which holds what a payment needs. Prontei never sees your full card number. See the terms of sale and the refund policy.
