Dual-channel or Multiple channels transcription
If you have multiples channels in your audio file with different content each, Gladia API automatically transcribe them. In the transcription result, you will get for each utterances a channel key corresponding to the channels the transcription came from.
Sending an audio with 2 different channels (that does not contains the same audio data), will be billed twice as 2 different audios. If your audio has multiple channels but has the same audio content on each channels, it will only billed once.
TLDR: We charge every unique channel in an audio file, we do not charge if channels are duplicates.
