What is the timeline for the fast transcription API (preview) to be production ready?

Question

Really would like to use the fast transcription API (preview) for my production use case so I'd love to get some insight on the timeline for that.

Also, if anyone has suggestions for a close alternative - my use case requires word level timestamps, and it needs to be able to work with a REST API instead of a SDK

Thanks

Hello @Sid Sadel , the anticipated ETA for the fast transcription API (preview) to be production ready is September/early October this year.

However, please check the what's news page for latest updates: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/speech-service/releasenotes

I hope this helps.
