Hey, I’m having trouble finding the gauge with the cost breakdown per API on vAPI. Could anyone point me in the right direction or share the details? Thanks!

You can view a breakdown of your cost per call in your dashboard at [dashboard.vapi.ai/calls](https://dashboard.vapi.ai/calls). The breakdown includes:
* STT (Speech-to-text)
* LLM (LLM inference)
* TTS (Text-to-speech)
* Vapi platform fee (5¢/minute)
* Transport (telephony costs)
I couldn't find information about a specific "gauge" feature in the documentation.

Can I see the cost breakdown for an outbound call with free plan that I made to a US Number ? To have an estimation about what it will cost for next call ?

Use the cost breakdown field in the create call and Get call API responses, which includes costs for components..

Yes, even with the free plan, you can view the cost breakdown for outbound calls with US number using the Create Call and Get Call APIs, and estimate future costs based on usage and the included free minutes..

Can I see how much the call should cost if it was done after the free minutes. Because now all are cost 0 but I want to know if the free minutes were finished.
Thanks

To share the call cost, could you share any of your recent call IDs?
