Update README to showcase speech model selection#130
Merged
Conversation
Updated the first code snippets for async and streaming to explicitly show model parameters, matching our current documentation. This could help prevent tools like Claude Code from defaulting to Nano when scaffolding projects from the SDK README. Changes: Setup: Added baseUrl to client constructor Async: Updated first transcribe example to use speech_models: ["universal-3-pro", "universal-2"] with language_detection Streaming: Collapsed two constructor blocks into one with speechModel: "u3-rt-pro", sampleRate, and formatTurns Updated audio URL from espn.m4a to sports_injuries.mp3 to match current docs
