Audio streaming is now KES 0.50 a minute

The Stream voice action is now billed at KES 0.50 a minute, metered per second, as its own Streaming line on your statement.

Forking call audio to your own WebSocket with Stream now costs KES 0.50 a minute, metered per second.

Billable time runs from the moment the stream starts until it stops, or until the call ends if it never stops first.
It is on top of the call's own rate. A streamed inbound call pays the inbound rate plus streaming.
Two streams on one call are each billed.
Sautikit's own AI agents are not charged for streaming. Their audio is billed as AI usage.
It appears as its own Streaming line on your statement, after the call ends.

GET /v1/calls/{id} now includes the charge once it is billed:

{ "streaming": { "seconds": 90, "cost_minor": 75, "currency": "KES" } }

The field is absent on calls without a stream. Current prices are always at /pricing.
