HomeAI Cost per TaskSummarize a 1-hour meeting

What it costs to summarize a 1-hour meeting

A one-hour transcript in; notes and action items out. Transcription itself is priced separately.

Pricing verified: September 2026

The short answer

Between $0.0005 and $0.031 per run, depending on the model. That is a 67× spread for the same job.

How this is calculated

One hour of speech at ~150 words per minute ≈ 9,000 words ≈ 12,000 input tokens. Notes plus action items ≈ 500 words ≈ 700 output tokens. Speech-to-text is a separate service and is not included.

12,000 input tokens700 output tokens13k tokens context needed

Cost = (input tokens ÷ 1M × input price) + (output tokens ÷ 1M × output price). Prices come from our daily-verified model data. Batch and cached-input discounts are not applied — they only ever make these numbers smaller.

“Needs chunking” means the model's context window can't hold this job in a single pass, so the real cost is higher than the figure shown and quality usually suffers.

Should you just pick the cheapest?

The token cost here is trivial at every tier — what varies is whether the model attributes decisions to the right person and catches the commitment buried in the middle of a tangent. That is a quality gap, not a price gap.

Frequently asked

How much does it cost to summarize a meeting with AI?

$0.0005 on Llama 3.2 1B Instruct, the cheapest capable option, rising to $0.031 on Claude Sonnet 5 at the top end. GPT-5.6 Luna is the value pick at $0.0032 per run. The job is priced at 12,000 input and 700 output tokens — see the working below.

How did you work out the token count for this task?

One hour of speech at ~150 words per minute ≈ 9,000 words ≈ 12,000 input tokens. Notes plus action items ≈ 500 words ≈ 700 output tokens. Speech-to-text is a separate service and is not included.

What does this cost at 120 meetings a month?

$0.056 a month on Llama 3.2 1B Instruct, $0.389 on GPT-5.6 Luna, and $3.72 on Claude Sonnet 5. Batch APIs typically halve these figures for work that can wait, and prompt caching cuts the input side further when the same context is reused.

Is the cheapest model the right choice for this task?

The token cost here is trivial at every tier — what varies is whether the model attributes decisions to the right person and catches the commitment buried in the middle of a tangent. That is a quality gap, not a price gap.

Are these prices current?

Yes. Every figure on this page is computed from our model pricing data, which is checked daily against each provider's official pricing page. When a provider changes a price, these numbers change with it.
