Tactiq is one of those tools that looks simple until you hit a limit and realize the real question is not: Do I get unlimited transcripts?
It is: Do I get enough AI credits to actually use the smart features?
This guide breaks down Tactiq pricing (2026) in plain English, plus how to pick the right plan without overpaying.
If you want study-ready notes and visual diagrams (flowcharts, mind maps, timelines), WhispriNote is built for lecture and video workflows (requires a WhispriNote account).

The gotcha most people miss: AI credits vs transcripts
Tactiq separates usage into two buckets.
1) Transcripts (meeting capture)
- Free gives 10 transcripts per month
- Pro, Team, and Business list unlimited transcripts
So if your only goal is save what was said, Pro already fixes that.
2) AI credits (the smart outputs)
AI credits power things like:
- summaries
- action items
- follow-up drafts
- asking questions about the transcript
This is what usually forces the upgrade.
Typical limits shown:
- Free: 5 AI credits per month
- Pro: 10 AI credits per month
- Team and Business: unlimited AI credits
If you want AI output on every meeting, you will feel Free and Pro limits quickly.
What does 1 credit actually mean?
Think of it like a ticket:
- 1 credit = 1 meeting transcription (for meetings longer than about 2 minutes)
- credits reset monthly and do not roll over
So on Free, those 10 transcripts per month are basically 10 credits.
Which plan is best for you?
Choose Free if
You want to test the experience without commitment:
- You transcribe fewer than 10 meetings per month
- You only need AI summaries occasionally (5 per month)
Perfect for trying it for a week and seeing if it fits.
Choose Pro if
You are solo and just want unlimited capture without going full team pricing:
- You run lots of meetings, but only need AI summaries on the important ones
- You are okay with 10 AI credits per month
Best for: students doing project meetings, founders, freelancers.
