Smart Turn for Streaming STT

Smart Turn for Streaming STT The streaming Speech to Text API now supports Smart Turn end-of-turn detection. When enabled via the smart_turn query parameter, an ML model predicts whether the speaker has finished their thought at silence boundaries — reducing false endpointing during dictation, number sequences, and mid-sentence pauses. Use smart_turn_timeout to set a maximum silence fallback. For more details, see the Smart Turn docs . May 29
