Question for folks who work a lot with STT models - What is your favorite model that supports word-level timestamps, has good dysfluency detection (whisper isn't great), and is also supported by transformers.js?

A few months ago I had to work around a problem like this and the best out there was WhisperX. Not sure about transformer.js support.
