Gladia
€50 of free credit on sign-up, a one-time grant with no monthly reset, enough for roughly 80+ hours of pre-recorded audio or 60+ hours of real-time audio
Official pricing-page FAQ verbatim: "Yes — sign up and get 50€ in free credits, a one-time grant with no monthly reset. That's roughly 80+ hours of pre-recorded transcription or 60+ hours of real-time transcription at current rates. Once used, top up or upgrade to continue." Billing is a prepaid credit wallet (prepaid credit wallet); once it runs out you must top up manually or enable auto top-up to keep using it.
"80 hours / 60 hours" are official estimates converted at current prices, and the real figures will move with unit prices. The official page does not say whether a card is required, and the sign-up was not completed to verify. Gladia is a European company; reachability from mainland China was not tested.
