# Get Analysis Quote

Use the Speak AI MCP server tool `get_analysis_quote` to check whether a media file
can be analysed as audio or video, and what it will cost, before running
`ask_ai_chat` with analysisInput.

## What does it do?

Check whether a media file can be analysed as audio or video, and what it will cost,
before running `ask_ai_chat` with analysisInput. Returns \{ eligible, credits,
seconds \} and, when not eligible, a plain-English reason: an unavailable file is a
normal result here, not an error. This is the only check that accounts for both the
account's premium opt-in and the server-wide switch, so call it before committing to
an expensive run.

## Parameters

`get_analysis_quote` takes 3 parameters, 2 of them required.

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `mediaId` | string | Yes | Media file to price |
| `analysisInput` | enum: audio, video | Yes | 'audio' to hear the recording, 'video' to also see it. Video costs substantially more because frames dominate. |
| `modelId` | string | No | Optional model id to price against. Omit for the workspace default. |

## Behaviour

- Only reads data. Does not modify your workspace.
