Yandex SpeechKit Hybrid pricing
Yandex SpeechKit Hybrid cost depends on the licensing model and system requirements, and we discuss it on case-by-case basis. SpeechKit Hybrid offers two licensing models: Cloud Billing and Yubikey.
Cloud Billing
In the Cloud Billing model, you only pay for speech recognition and synthesis requests. There are no limitations on the number of sessions and requests per second.
If choosing the Cloud Billing licensing model, you need to establish a constant communication channel with Yandex Cloud servers to deliver request metrics. The content of synthesis and recognition requests is not transmitted and remains within the user's network. All transmitted data is logged, and logs are stored on the user's servers.
Yubikey
If choosing the Yubikey licensing model, the user gets from Yandex SpeechKit and connects locally to their server at least one physical hardware authentication device (Yubikey) containing performance data for the services and contract duration info. No data, including request metrics, ever leaves the user's network; therefore, SpeechKit Hybrid services can operate within an offline network.
The Yubikey licensing model uses a hardware authentication device to limit the maximum number of speech recognition sessions and maximum speech synthesis throughput. If looking to increase performance or extend your licenses, order a new hardware authentication device.
