Starter pricing is $0.61 an hour for asynchronous transcription and $0.75 for real-time audio.\n\n**Soniox Speech-to-Text.** About $0.10 an hour async and $0.12 real time, with diarisation, language ID and translation included. No free credits for new accounts since October 2025.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP\n\n1. Don't resubmit a pre-recorded job after a 200 or a `transcription.created` webhook. It's already queued\n2. Pick `solaria-3` only for async EN, FR, DE, ES or IT audio. Anything live or multilingual needs `solaria-1`\n3. A 429 means the concurrency limit, 3 async and 1 live on the free plan. Wait for a running job to finish\n4. Upgrade off the free plan before sending sensitive audio\n5. Split files over 135 minutes or 1,000 MB\n\n### Soniox Speech-to-Text\n\n1. Pass `audio_url` for public files and skip the upload step. Delete uploaded files or they count against the 10 GB quota for 30 days\n2. Use the `context` field for names and domain terms\n3. Buffer audio while the WebSocket connects, then flush it after the config message\n4. Split anything over 300 minutes. The cap is fixed\n5. Set `client_reference_id` so failed or duplicate requests can be traced in the usage log\n\n## Other comparisons with Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP or Soniox Speech-to-Text\n\n- [Amazon Transcribe vs Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/amazon-transcribe-vs-gladia-stt.md)\n- [Amazon Transcribe vs Soniox Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/amazon-transcribe-vs-soniox-stt.md)\n- [AssemblyAI Speech-to-Text (Universal) vs Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/assemblyai-stt-vs-gladia-stt.md)\n- [AssemblyAI Speech-to-Text (Universal) vs Soniox Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/assemblyai-stt-vs-soniox-stt.md)\n- [Azure AI Speech speech-to-text vs Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/azure-speech-to-text-vs-gladia-stt.md)\n- [Azure AI Speech speech-to-text vs Soniox Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/azure-speech-to-text-vs-soniox-stt.md)\n- [Deepgram Speech-to-Text (Nova-3, Flux) vs Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deepgram-stt-vs-gladia-stt.md)\n- [Deepgram Speech-to-Text (Nova-3, Flux) vs Soniox Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deepgram-stt-vs-soniox-stt.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Scribe Speech to Text API vs Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-scribe-vs-gladia-stt.md)\n- [ElevenLabs Scribe Speech to Text API vs Soniox Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/elevenlabs-scribe-vs-soniox-stt.md)\n- [Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP vs Google Cloud Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gladia-stt-vs-google-speech-to-text.md)\n- [Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP vs Rev AI Speech-to-Text API](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gladia-stt-vs-rev-ai-stt.md)\n- [Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP vs Speechmatics Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gladia-stt-vs-speechmatics-stt.md)\n- [Google Cloud Speech-to-Text vs Soniox Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/google-speech-to-text-vs-soniox-stt.md)\n- [Rev AI Speech-to-Text API vs Soniox Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/rev-ai-stt-vs-soniox-stt.md)\n- [Soniox Speech-to-Text vs Speechmatics Speech-to-Text](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/soniox-stt-vs-speechmatics-stt.md)\n", "meta": { "attribution": "Anchor Terminal (https://www.anchorterminal.com)", "docs": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/docs/", "generatedAt": "2026-10-04", "license": "CC-BY-4.0", "method": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/benchmark/", "methodology": "0.3", "openapi": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/openapi.json", "preview": false, "run": "2026-10-01", "runLabel": "October 2026 research run" }, "page": { "breadcrumbs": [ { "name": "Home", "url": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/" }, { "name": "Compare", "url": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/" }, { "name": "Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP vs Soniox Speech-to-Text", "url": "" } ], "description": "Gladia Speech-to-Text API + MCP has a score of 69.7 (B) against Soniox Speech-to-Text's 58.3 (C).
