Daily pricing: the quick answer

Quick answerHigh· Verified July 8, 2026

Daily is a usage-priced video API that costs $0.0040 per participant-minute for video and $0.00099 for audio-only as of July 11, 2026, after 10,000 free participant-minutes each account gets every month. There are no per-seat plans; you pay for minutes consumed, and the rate falls on volume to $0.0015 per video minute past 50 million a month. Paid support is separate and flat: $250 a month for Advanced, $1,900 for Premium, $3,900 for Enterprise. Recording, streaming, and telephony each carry their own per-minute line, so the bill tracks usage.

Daily Hidden Costs & Pitfalls

What sits on top of the plan fee

With Daily the seat price is not the story, the meters are. Recording, compliance, and telephony each bill on their own line on top of the base per-minute call rate.

Cloud recording bills on top of call minutes
Recording a call is a separate meter from the call itself. Cloud video recording runs $0.01349 per recorded minute plus $0.003 per minute of storage, so an hour-long session you record adds well over the base video rate for the same hour. A product that records everything by default is running two meters at once; decide what actually needs recording rather than leaving it on.
$0.01349/recorded-min + $0.003/min storage
HIPAA compliance is a flat add-on
The Healthcare package that gives you a signed BAA and end-to-end encryption is $500 a month on top of usage, and it attaches to the paid support tiers rather than the free plan. A telehealth product cannot get compliant on pay-as-you-go alone; it carries that $500 monthly line before a single minute is billed. Budget it as fixed overhead, not a variable.
$500/month
Telephony and transfer charges
Dialing the phone network is its own catalog. PSTN dial-in and dial-out run $0.018 to $0.03 a minute depending on volume and transcoding, and a SIP REFER call transfer is $0.20 per event. A support use case that bridges calls to real phone numbers stacks these on top of the base video rate, so model the telephony path separately before you assume $0.0040 a minute covers it.

Daily Cost Analysis

Positioning

$200/moentry price
1077% above the category median
low $8.40median $16.99 · n=16high $200

Daily disrupts standard SaaS pricing by offering a developer-focused, usage-based model rather than a flat monthly fee. While the category median sits at $26.4/mo, Daily starts free on both its Free and Scale plans, giving teams 10,000 free minutes every month. The Scale plan charges a highly competitive pay-as-you-go rate starting at $0.004 per minute once the free tier is exhausted. For product teams building custom video infrastructure, this model offers exceptional value compared to rigid per-seat licenses.

Cost drivers

  • 1Overage charges apply immediately once the monthly 10,000 free minutes are exhausted, billed at a variable rate starting from $0.004 per minute.
  • 2Cloud recording, RTMP streaming, and HLS output on the Scale plan incur additional usage-based storage and bandwidth fees.

Watch-outs

The primary risk lies in the unpredictable nature of pay-as-you-go pricing, where sudden spikes in user engagement or unmonitored sessions can lead to unexpectedly high monthly bills.

Strengths

Even the free tier offers generous free tier: 10,000 participant-minutes/month - strong value at no cost.

  • Generous free tier: 10,000 participant-minutes/month
  • Prebuilt UI for rapid deployment with minimal front-end code
  • Global infrastructure for low-latency calls (SFU network)

Editor’s take

Startups and developers should begin on the Free plan to prototype, then transition to the Scale plan to access cloud recording and custom domains as usage scales. For enterprises requiring guaranteed uptime and HIPAA compliance, the custom Enterprise plan is the correct fit. If you prefer predictable, flat-rate per-user pricing over usage-based billing, look at Zoom starting at $15.99/mo per user.
