What

Three README changes, one commit each:

  • Used in Gladia's benchmarks: a short section after "Why normalization matters" saying the gladia-3 preset is the normalization step behind Gladia's published WER figures, with links to the benchmarks page and the STT API comparison page.
  • Compute WER: a Quick start example that normalizes the reference and the hypothesis with the same pipeline, then scores them with jiwer. The example output (1.33 raw, 0.0 normalized) was checked against the published package.
  • About: the Gladia link now uses https://www.gladia.io instead of the bare domain, which redirects.

Why

The README explains why normalization matters for comparing engines, but did not link to the comparisons it powers. The WER example shows the missing last step from normalize() to a score.
