Participant minutes is a popular unit to measure meeting usage. With 1 participant-minute, 1 participant can join a meeting for 1 minute. It is calculated for each meeting separately as follows:

This is the calculation that almost all API providers use. But Clan Meeting is determined to pass on as much savings to you as we can.
Introducing - dynamic participant minutes.
Example: In a 3 participant call of 30 minutes, if one participant joined after 20 minutes.
Participant minutes
= 3 (participants) x 30 (total duration in minutes)
= 90
Dynamic participant minutes
= 30 (minutes spent by participant 1) + 30 (minutes spent by participant 2) + 10 (minutes spent by participant 3)
= 70
Meeting minutes is simply the duration of a meeting in minutes.
