The free tier is built for daily listening

Playback starts in Cloud. Switch to Eco on desktop for free unlimited listening. Free is there so you can try Speechdash on real files, not a demo clip.

Free on Speechdash is not a locked preview. You can import a real PDF or recording and listen. Playback starts in Cloud and uses credits. Switch to Eco on desktop for free unlimited listening.

What Free includes

  • Optional Eco on desktop: local, unlimited, no credits
  • A daily document allowance
  • Paste and public URL import
  • Ask questions on the file you imported (credits apply)
  • Enough credits to try cloud audio once or twice

What still has a cap

Free accounts stop after a few new documents in a day. Unlimited removes that cap and raises upload size.

Cloud playback and export still use credits on every plan.

Transcription after signup

Recordings need an account so they stay in your library next to the text. Creating the document does not spend credits. Eco on desktop does not either.

When to upgrade

Move to Unlimited when the daily cap gets in the way, not on day one. Most people know after a week of real files.
