ParameterDefaultWhat it does
diarizationunsetSeparate speakers by voice, by audio channel, or both. Overrides the universal diarization switch.
speaker_sensitivity0.50 to 1. Higher finds more distinct speakers, at the cost of splitting one voice in two.
prefer_current_speakerunsetStay with the previous speaker when the acoustic match is close. Reduces false switches and can miss brief interjections.
max_speakersunsetUpper bound on distinct speakers. Two or more; ignored below that.
channel_diarization_labelsunsetComma-separated names for the audio channels, in order — for example: Agent, Caller.
output_localeunsetRegional spelling of the transcript. Set automatically from the chosen language; override it here.
punctuation_sensitivityunset0 to 1. Higher produces more punctuation.
permitted_marksunsetPunctuation marks to allow, separated by spaces — for example: . , ? — or "all". A comma cannot be a separator here because it is one of the marks. Overrides the universal punctuation switch.
remove_disfluenciesunsetDrop hesitation sounds such as 'um' and 'uh', adjusting capitalisation around them.
enable_entitiesunsetReturn dates, money and similar as single items carrying both their spoken and written forms.
domainunsetA domain-specialised pack for the chosen language, such as finance or medical. Leave empty for the general model.
