So i'm looking into building a speech to text app for fun. I did some research and found an inbuilt Speech to Text API using RecognizerIntent that is free, but also found that google is now offerieng a cloud speech API that the charge for.
My question is, what is the difference between them, and If i use the inbuilt RecognizerIntent, is it free?
For the Google Cloud Speech API, refer to the following link:
