> My understanding is that the only reason OpenAI even setup the paid API is because it "can also be hard to run [sic]". Personally, I'm skeptical. I"m not knocking them for it but I could see how this is just brand capitalization.

Why is it hard to see that not every organization has the capability to set up their own translation cluster, provision GPUs, frontends, scaling, on-call rotations, regularly update models..? It's not just "brand capitalization". An API that you can call to transcribe/translate a recording with zero extra work is absolutely essential to have for most.
