azure-ai-transcription-py

What it does

Python client library for Microsoft Azure's speech-to-text service. Supports batch transcription of audio files stored in blob storage and real-time streaming transcription with per-event text output. Speaker diarization and timestamp capture are available in both modes.

Why it's useful

Combines batch and real-time transcription with built-in diarization in a single client, removing the need to stitch together separate Azure services or third-party speaker separation tools.
