German phone calls, transcribed properly
German (Deutsch): Standard German plus Austrian and Swiss Standard German; strong on long compound nouns. Compounds like Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung come through as single words, capitalized correctly. Swiss German dialect (Schwiizerdütsch) is harder than Standard German — expect to review those recordings.
Phone calls in particular: Two-speaker diarization separates agent and caller cleanly. QA reviews, dispute records and coaching material.
