This week, AssemblyAI introduces custom text input for LeMUR, allowing users to submit their own custom text inputs without needing a transcript ID. They also announce their participation at AWS re:Invent and partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace. A revamped Playground is launched, offering improved user experience and combined features of Async and LeMUR Playgrounds. The blog section features tutorials on getting YouTube video transcripts, real-time transcription in Python, obtaining Zoom transcripts using the Zoom API, and more.
