Hi @feral chasm. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
Yes, using summarization with Deepgram does increase the cost of the API request. According to the Deepgram documentation (https://developers.deepgram.com/docs/text-intelligence#summarization), summarization pricing is based on the number of input and output tokens.
The metadata object in the API response includes a summary_info field that provides information about the model used and the input/output tokens. This information is directly related to the pricing for the summarization feature.
It's worth noting that summarization is an additional feature on top of the basic transcription service, so it naturally adds to the overall cost of processing. The exact pricing details can be found on the Deepgram pricing page (https://deepgram.com/pricing).
Additionally, when using summarization along with other speech-to-text features, it's important to consider the rate limits. According to the API rate limits documentation (https://developers.deepgram.com/reference/api-rate-limits#pay-as-you-go--growth), summarization has a limit of up to 10 concurrent requests for Pay as You Go and Growth plans. This could potentially affect the overall cost and efficiency of your API usage if you're processing large volumes of audio.
