+## 🎙️ Free Transcription Combo
+
+> Transcribe any audio/video for **$0** — Deepgram leads with $200 free, AssemblyAI $50 fallback, Groq Whisper as unlimited emergency backup.
+
+| Provider | Free Credits | Best Model | Rate Limit |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 🟢 **Deepgram** | **$200 free** (signup) | `nova-3` — best accuracy, 30+ languages | No RPM limit on free credits |
+| 🔵 **AssemblyAI** | **$50 free** (signup) | `universal-3-pro` — chapters, sentiment, PII | No RPM limit on free credits |
+| 🔴 **Groq** | **Free forever** | `whisper-large-v3` — OpenAI Whisper | 30 RPM (rate limited) |
+
+**Suggested combo in `/dashboard/combos`:**
+
+```
+Name: free-transcription
+Strategy: Priority
+Nodes:
+  [1] deepgram/nova-3          → uses $200 free first
+  [2] assemblyai/universal-3-pro → fallback when Deepgram credits run out
+  [3] groq/whisper-large-v3    → free forever, emergency fallback
+```
+
+Then in `/dashboard/media` → **Transcription** tab: upload any audio or video file → select your combo endpoint → get transcription in supported formats.
+
+

 OmniRoute v2.0 is built as an operational platform, not just a relay proxy.
