# Free trial

Every Speak AI trial runs 7 days with **every premium feature turned on**: transcription,
AI Chat, the Meeting Assistant, automations, insights, and exports. No credit card required,
and nothing is charged when it ends. {/* fact:trial.days */}{/* fact:trial.no_card */}

- Try the whole platform, not a cut-down version
- Upload real recordings; your transcripts stay yours after the trial
- No auto-charge, ever: the account converts to the free tier when the trial ends

## What the trial includes

| | Standard trial | Extended trial |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Transcription | **60 minutes** {/* fact:trial.t1.minutes */} | 120 minutes {/* fact:trial.t2.minutes */} |
| Files | 5 {/* fact:trial.t1.files */} | 15 |
| Meeting Assistant | 3 meetings {/* fact:trial.t1.meetings */} | 3 meetings |
| AI Chat | 10,000 characters {/* fact:trial.t1.chat_chars */} | 75,000 characters |
| Translation | 5,000 characters {/* fact:trial.t1.translation_chars */} | 25,000 characters |

Teams evaluating with a shared workspace start with extended limits. If you need more than that
to test properly, longer files, a bigger dataset, or more seats, ask us and we'll set up a custom
trial: [book a free consult](https://calendly.com/speak-ai/consult?utm_source=docs&utm_campaign=consult)
or write to success@speakai.co.

## What happens when the trial ends

**You are not charged.** The account converts to the free tier: you keep access to Speak AI,
your uploads, transcripts, and analysis. Limits apply to new work, not to what you already made.
Upgrade whenever it's actually worth it to you: [compare plans](/help/account/plans/).

## Can I test with a long recording?

A single long file can use most of the trial's transcription minutes. That's a legitimate test,
not a problem. If your evaluation needs more (a full interview study, a season of podcast
episodes), [book a consult](https://calendly.com/speak-ai/consult?utm_source=docs&utm_campaign=consult)
and we'll extend the trial to fit it.

## Do trial transcripts work like paid ones?

Yes: view, edit, export, and share them exactly as on a paid plan. That's the point of the
trial: judge Speak AI on your own recordings, end to end.
