Optimize Fireflies.ai costs through smart tier selection, sampling, and usage monitoring.

|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 1,000 requests | N/A |
| Pro | $99 | 100,000 requests | $0.001/request |
| Enterprise | Custom | Unlimited | Volume discounts |

ORDER BY 1;Review Fireflies.ai dashboard for usage patterns and costs.
Use the cost estimation function to find the right tier.
Add usage tracking to catch budget overruns early.
Enable batching, caching, and sampling where appropriate.
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Unexpected charges | Untracked usage | Implement monitoring |
| Overage fees | Wrong tier | Upgrade tier |
| Budget exceeded | No alerts | Set up alerts |
| Inefficient usage | No batching | Enable batch requests |
