## Understanding Our Metrics

### Characters

Characters are the primary unit of measurement. Every character in your input text (including spaces and punctuation) counts toward your monthly limit.

**Example:**

```
"Hello, welcome to our service!" = 31 characters
```

### Minutes

Minutes are an approximate estimate based on average speech rate. Actual duration may vary based on:

* Voice model selected
* Speech speed settings
* Content type (numbers, abbreviations, etc.)

### Concurrency

Concurrency refers to the number of simultaneous API requests you can make. Higher concurrency means:

* Faster batch processing
* Better user experience for real-time applications
* Ability to serve more end-users simultaneously

***

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What happens when I exceed my character limit?

Once you reach your monthly character limit, API requests will return an error until your limit resets at the start of your next billing cycle. We recommend upgrading your plan or purchasing additional characters if you consistently hit your limits.

### Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan?

Yes! You can change your plan at any time from your dashboard.

* **Upgrading:** Takes effect immediately. You'll be charged the prorated difference for the remainder of the billing period.
* **Downgrading:** Takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle. You'll continue to enjoy your current plan's benefits until then.

### Do unused characters roll over?

Currently, unused characters do not roll over to the next month. Each billing cycle starts fresh with your plan's full character allocation.

### Is there a free trial for paid plans?

The Free plan serves as your trial — you can explore all features with 10K characters before committing to a paid plan. No credit card required.

### What payment methods do you accept?

We accept:

* Credit/Debit Cards (Visa, Mastercard, Rupay)
* UPI

### Do you offer annual billing?

Yes! Save up to 20% with annual billing. Contact us for annual plan pricing.
