Overview
AVFlow bills by actual processed media, not by what you configure on paper.
Formula
Section titled “Formula”total = base_fee + source_cost + node_cost + sink_cost| Component | Billed when |
|---|---|
| Base fee | Job is running (from submit to stop) |
| Sources | Media is decoded / captured |
| Nodes | Media is mixed, transcribed, etc. |
| Sinks | Media is encoded / uploaded / published |
Idle time is free for media processing: no frames → no source/sink/node usage charges. Silence is not billed for ASR.
Key rules

- Per-minute rounding — durations bill in whole minutes, rounded up per line item.
- List prices — shown in USD, before tax. Your Console invoice is authoritative.
