When scaling Google Cloud Speech-to-Text for public use, it may incur some charges, which is reasonable for a service. It would be beneficial if a free version were available for students who want to create projects. The pricing is reasonable and not excessive.
I don't have information about the billing. It's not my interest. I only work on implementations and tasks. The cost of the cloud is not a problem, according to the higher-ups, however. We do analyze the cost for the implementation of new things. However, for other things, we are not interested in seeing the billing. It's not my area, the billing.

Google Speech-to-Text enables developers to convert audio to text by applying powerful neural network models in an easy-to-use API. The API recognizes 120 languages and variants to support your global user base. You can enable voice command-and-control, transcribe audio from call centers, and more. It can process real-time streaming or prerecorded audio, using Google’s machine learning technology.

The tool's cost is also very low. The tool is cheaply priced. It charges around 0.13 INR per call with a duration of five minutes.
Cost-wise, I would say it is all-inclusive in the payment made to Google.
