Pricing

Rev's prices start at $0.25 per minute for AI services and $1.99 per minute for human transcription. The Free plan includes 45 AI minutes per user/month; Essentials and Pro raise that to 5,000 and 10,000 and add API access. Our fetch of rev.com was blocked, so figures come from Rev's support center.

How to use it with AI

How Rev connects to each AI platform: native connector or MCP, API through code the agent writes, browser control, or file upload.

Rev API ↗Google Antigravity docs ↗ Confirmed Browser subagent via /browser, documented as an Antigravity App feature; the IDE has separate browser docs Google Antigravity browser docs ↗ Confirmed Export from Rev, then works on local projects and worktrees Google Antigravity docs ↗

Confirmed means both the tool's and the platform's official docs describe that route (links in the cell); IonBin has not tested every pairing. Not documented means it may work, but no official docs describe that route end to end. Checked Oct 17, 2026.
