    • Punctuation - feature gives you a a well-punctuated transcription with proper casing. AssemblyAI's Punctuation Restoration model is a multi-class classifier under the hood. For each word, predicting a class that denotes either one or two actions: do nothing (i.e. leave the word as-is), or add punctuation and/or casing to the word. For example, the model might predict to uppercase a word, and add a comma to the end of it. Or, the model might predict that the word should stay lowercase, but a period should be added to the end of it. Our current best model leverages a transformer-based model architecture, which produces superior results compared to RNN based models. This model was trained on over 1 billion tokens, and yields an accuracy of over 92% for punctuation and casing restoration!
    • Custom Spelling -  feature gives you the ability to specify how words are spelled or formatted in the transcript text. For example, Custom Spelling could be used to change the spelling of all instances of the word "Ariana" to "Arianna". It could also be used to change the formatting of "CS 50" to "CS50"
    • Disfluencies (Filler Words) - By default, the API will remove Filler Words, like "umm" and "uhh", from transcripts. Supported Filler Words:
      • "um"
      • "uh"
      • "hmm"
      • "mhm"
      • "uh huh"
    • Profanity Filtering - allows you to quickly remove curse words and replace them with "#" characters in the transcript so you don't have to worry about it! By default, the API will return a verbatim transcription of the audio, meaning profanity will be present in the transcript if spoken in the audio. To replace profanity with asterisks, as shown below, include the additional parameter filter_profanity to your request when submitting files for transcription, and set this to true. Eg: It was some tough s* that they had to go through. But they did it. I mean, it blows my f****** mind every time I hear the story.** The JSON for your completed transcript will come back as-per-usual, but the text will contain asterisks when profanity was spoken. Filter profanity from the transcribed text, can be true  or false - filter_profanity (boolean)
