- For speech to text conversion, each audio or video file you transcribe is charged to your account based on the original file duration, in increments of 1 second.

How can I set up a commercial account?
Purchase one of the commercial plans and your user will automatically be upgraded to commercial account.
Can I request a refund?
Yes, we offer refunds within 14 days for any unused credits you purchased. In order to request a refund, send us email with the request to contact@narakeet.com, clearly stating out the decision.
For more information, see our Refund Policy.
Can I add more people to my account?
Yes, just get in touch by email at contact@narakeet.com and send us the email or Narakeet username of the person you would like to add. They will be able to use your credits, but will not see any billing data.
How are the files counted for credits?
Narakeet bills you for the duration of audio/video files produced. Each file you create is billed to your account in increments of 1 second.
Will I be charged for every change, or only when I download the result?
Use the text-to-speech previews to try out voices and scripts easily without paying. You can also use the preview feature for presentations and video scripts to avoid spending credits on experiments.
Previews allow you to try out the audio and evaluate the visuals faster than building the full file, and even more importantly without spending any credits. Previews are free. They do not deduct any credits from your account.
You will be charged every time you build the full result (Using the “Create Audio” or “Create Video” buttons), regardless of whether you download it or not.
If I buy 30 minutes of credits, can I build more than one audio/video?
Yes, you can build many audio/video files. For top-up accounts, the credits are deducted in increments of 1 second, so you can for example create 30 files of 1 minute each, or 60 files of 30 seconds, or one 10 minute plus one 20 minute file, or any other combination of those that adds up to 30 minutes.
When do credits expire?
The credits do not have an expiry. Any credits you do not spend remain available for you for future use.
Is the 6 USD payment one-off or a subscription?
The 6 USD package gives you 30 minutes @ $0.20 per minute of credits to spend on building audio/video files whenever you like. This is a top-up purchase, so you can buy credits, spend them, and then buy more credits once you need more capacity in the future. There are no recurring charges or subscription costs.
Can I get cheaper minutes or a discount?
Buying a larger plan gives you significantly cheaper minutes. See the top-up plans for more information.
If you want to purchase more than 10 000 minutes, we can provide additional discounts not available online. Contact us at contact@narakeet.com, and one of our sales colleagues will be in touch shortly to provide options.
We can also provide discounts to registered non-profit and educational institutions (see below).
Are there discounts for educators or non-profit sector?
We can provide discounts to organisations in the educational and non-profit sectors. At this point, we are only offering discounted access to organisations, not for individuals.
If you represent a school, university or a charity, apply for a discount by sending an email with the request to contact@narakeet.com, and one of our sales colleagues will be in touch shortly to provide options.
If you are an individual working in the educational sector, or a commercial company producing educational materials, the educational discounts would not be available to you. Please just set up a regular account by purchasing a standard plan.
