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
machine

Historical default alias, not a way to select V1 today.

Access
Historical default route. V1 is no longer available for asynchronous jobs; machine now selects Reverb.
Regions
US deployment
API endpoint URL
https://api.rev.ai/speechtotext/v1/jobsSource for API endpoint URL (opens in a new tab)

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

Data & enterprise terms

API jobs and associated files are retained for at most 30 days, with account/job deletion controls and manual deletion. An accounting record remains. Rev terms permit continuous training of its own ASR/AI models on speech-service content, while excluding generative-AI training. The security page’s external-LLM exclusion is not a universal no-training promise.

API model ID
machine

Account-dependent historical default. Current machine and machine_v2 select Reverb; neither establishes an original-V1 pin.

Access
Legacy streaming default before account migrations. Limited deferred migration was offered; current original-weight access is unverified.

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

Rev reserves its proprietary services and model technology and prohibits copying or reverse engineering. This record covers legacy proprietary ASR or an explicitly labeled managed API family/option whose internal checkpoint is not published. The separately downloadable English Reverb ASR and diarization releases are excluded; API billing alone is not proof of closed weights.
