What Pulse returns
- free estimates before analysis
- one-track trial path for first-time users
- tool-level token breakdowns
- cache-hit pricing behavior
- job status for completed, partial, failed, and expired jobs
Use Pulse when a builder or team needs audio-analysis costs that can be estimated before work starts.
Call estimate first with the selected tools and audio URL. Show the returned price, confirm rights, then use a one-track trial, run API-key analysis, or create a one-time Checkout link.
Estimates are free before paid analysis, and first-time users can try one short URL analysis before account setup. Pulse prices selected tools by audio duration using the same tool multipliers exposed by /tools: waveform 0.3 tokens/second, BPM 0.5 tokens/second, and key 0.5 tokens/second. The current token price is $0.005.
Examples are illustrative. The final estimate is shown before payment or API-key analysis and may account for selected tools, measured duration, cached analysis, failed tools, and checkout-path constraints.
Pulse is designed for audio the user has rights, permission, lawful access, or another legal basis to submit. Agents and apps should confirm that before analysis. Pulse does not provide transcription, stem separation, mastering, loudness correction, chord transcription, or track structure segmentation in v1.0.
Pulse is designed to make audio analysis auditable. Each analysis flow should make clear which URL was submitted, which tools were selected, what the estimate was, when rights confirmation was given, and whether the job completed, partially completed, failed, or expired.
