Provider Notes

Saaras v3 and Saarika v2.5 use Sarvam's native realtime API; saarika supports transcription, while Saaras also supports translate, verbatim, transliteration, and code-mixed modes. Saaras v3 Batch is a separate asynchronous product and is the only Sarvam slug here with speaker diarization. Its verified AudioLab input is WAV; MP3 is rejected before dispatch instead of failing later in Sarvam's batch job. AudioLab forces the realtime flush signal because session.finish uses manual provider drain semantics.
