❓ FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is an "engagement hour"?+
An engagement hour is the duration of audio processed — for STT it's the length of audio transcribed; for TTS it's the equivalent playback duration synthesised. You're only charged for actual content processed. One hour of audio = one engagement hour, regardless of API call time.
Why is there a 20,000 hour minimum for STT?+
We're purpose-built for enterprise scale — call centres, BFSI, healthcare, and government workloads. At 20K hours/month, we can offer dedicated infrastructure, a committed AI consultant, and the lowest per-hour rate possible. If you're evaluating us, we offer a free accuracy benchmarking pilot so you can verify our claims before committing.
Is my data stored on servers outside India?+
No. All data — audio, transcripts, prompts, and outputs — is processed and stored exclusively on sovereign Indian compute infrastructure. We are 100% DPDPA compliant. For regulated industries, we also offer air-gapped on-premises deployment where zero data leaves your premises.
How does billing work — are there hidden monthly totals?+
Billing is simple: you pay an hourly rate, multiplied by hours consumed. For the Growth bundle (20K hrs), you pay your rate × 20,000 for the base, then the overage rate for any additional hours. No token rounding, no seat fees, no surprise charges. You get a usage dashboard and alerts before hitting your limit.
What is the One API and when should I use it?+
The One API bundles STT + LLM + TTS into a single real-time WebSocket at ₹20/hour — cheaper than buying all three separately (₹5 + ₹10 + ₹10 = ₹25/hr). It's designed for AI voice agents: the full speech-in → intelligence → speech-out pipeline in under 500ms. Ideal for IVR bots, call agents, and conversational AI products.
Can I get a free trial or pilot?+
Yes. We offer a free accuracy benchmarking session where we run your audio samples through Rama STT and compare against Google/AWS — so you can verify the 98.4% accuracy claim on your own data before committing. WhatsApp our team and we'll set it up within 24 hours.
Which Indian languages are supported?+
Rama STT supports 200+ languages including all 22 scheduled Indian languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi, Odia, Assamese, Maithili, Santali, Sindhi, Nepali, Konkani, Dogri, Manipuri, Bodo, Sanskrit, Kashmiri, and Urdu — plus regional dialects, Hinglish, and code-mixed speech.
How quickly can we go live?+
For the Growth plan, most integrations go live within 1–3 business days. We provide Python, Node.js, and Go SDKs, a Postman collection, and a dedicated integration engineer. Enterprise on-premises deployments typically take 1–2 weeks depending on your infrastructure.
