French live streams and VODs, transcribed properly
French (français): European, Canadian (Québécois) and African French are transcribed by the same model. Liaisons and elisions (l', qu', j') are written out in standard orthography with accents intact.
Live streams in particular: Long-form audio is where batch transcription shines — the whole stream becomes searchable. Clip-worthy moments found by search, highlight text for socials, an archive of every stream.
