Top up from $8 for 1,000 minutes — credits never expire. Every paid plan ships with Claude chat on your transcripts and the Intelligence Beta summary card.
We email you a one-click login link. Credits land in your account the moment payment clears.
Receipt + login link arrive in your inbox right after payment.
Executive summary, topics & mentions, the key quote — and a chat box where you can ask Claude follow-ups about your own audio. Chat is private and per-session — your messages stay in the tab, nothing is stored on our server, and the next visit starts fresh. The model never trains on your recording.

Whipscribe is one-time credit packs that never expire — $8 / 1,000 min ($0.008/min), $12 / 2,000 min ($0.006/min), $24 / 5,000 min ($0.005/min). At the $12 pack the effective rate is $0.006/minute — about 5× cheaper than ChatGPT Realtime-Whisper ($0.017/min). Realtime is closer at light volumes, but Whipscribe wins past ~5 hours of audio. Whipscribe also includes without signup, paste-a-URL input, speaker diarization, batch uploads, web library, MCP server, and ChatGPT Custom GPT integration. Audio is processed on Whipscribe’s self-hosted Whisper cluster and never sent to OpenAI. Full comparison →
Yes. Chat runs per-session — your messages live only in the browser tab and are never saved on our server, in our logs, or in your account. Closing the tab clears the conversation. The next time you open the transcript, chat starts fresh. Anthropic does not train on the messages we send through it.
No. Once you buy a pack, the hours sit on your account until you use them. Use them today or a year from now — same price.
No auto-renew, ever. Packs are a one-time payment. The yearly plan is also a single payment — you pay once for the year and 2,000 (or 5,000) fresh minutes are added to your account each month. No card-on-file, no surprise charges; when the year ends, renewing is your choice.
One payment covers 12 months. Your first 2,000 minutes (5,000 on Team) land immediately, and a fresh batch is added every month. That works out to $8/month on Pro — a third less than paying monthly.
Never. We don't use your recordings or transcripts to train, fine-tune, or evaluate any AI model — ours or anyone else's. Transcription runs on Neugence-owned GPUs; nothing is sent to OpenAI, Google, AWS, Deepgram, Rev, or any third-party AI provider.
All prices are in USD and Razorpay charges in USD. If your card is denominated in another currency, your bank converts at its published FX rate and may add a foreign-transaction fee; that's outside Razorpay's control. Indian cards can pay in USD via Razorpay's international-payments flow with no change on your side.
We keep your audio and transcript only as long as needed to deliver the job and let you retrieve it. Ask us to delete sooner at contact@neugence.ai.
