Usage metering
Not collected

Legacy response uses billed duration while current pricing names Scribe output characters. No unambiguous legacy tariff reviewed; do not inherit the Scribe promotion.

Access & pricing

Prices belong to an endpoint and billing tier. A provider listing does not guarantee access for every account or region.

API model ID
Not collected

Provider model labels, backend selections and voice IDs do not establish an immutable request-side checkpoint selector.

Access
POST https://api.addisassistant.com/api/v2/stt; multipart audio and request_data JSON language_code am|om; x-api-key.
Regions
Policy allows Ethiopia, Switzerland, EEA and provider regions. Exact request routing and private residency require agreement.

Endpoint pricing has not been collected. Check the provider for applicable rates.

Data & enterprise terms

Standard-service terms/privacy permit content review, model training, fine-tuning and improvement. No-training or restricted processing requires a controlling written enterprise agreement. Account content and clips may persist for feature use, safety/legal needs or agreed terms; transient realtime processing has separately retained operational logs. No universal numeric retention TTL. Processing may occur in Ethiopia, Switzerland, EEA and provider regions; private residency requires written agreement.

Caching

Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.

01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain

The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.

02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state

Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.

03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate

Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say

No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.

Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.

The record behind the model

Why it is included

Commercial hosted API with restricted service access and reserved provider/licensor IP. Public research artifacts exist; this entry is not an assertion of an independently closed-weight checkpoint.
