No weights, sadly. Bit of a nothingburger release.

> Word-level timestamps. Each word has precise start/end times and confidence scores. Neat. This is missing from many models.

I don't understand how these benchmarks get things so wrong. Nova-3 is by far the best model on the market in WER. Azure's STT is atrocious. And yet every benchmark rates Azure's STT higher than Nova-3's.

$0.10/hour is a good price vs $0.30/hour for Gemini Transcribe 3.5.
