What

Documents the new global real-time endpoint global.rt.speechmatics.com (lowest-latency routing across regions, additive — the existing eu.rt / us.rt regional endpoints are unchanged).

  • docs/get-started/authentication.mdx — adds a global.rt.speechmatics.com row to the Realtime SaaS "Supported endpoints" table, a one-line description, and a :::warning data-residency caveat (residency-sensitive customers should use a regional endpoint).
  • docs/api-ref/realtime-transcription-websocket.mdx — adds a :::info note that you can connect to wss://global.rt.speechmatics.com/v2/, linking back to Supported endpoints.

Validation

  • npm run build passes; the new #supported-endpoints anchor resolves.
  • npm run spellcheck clean.

Region column label consistency. Every other row in this table follows a CODE (Place) pattern — EU1 (Europe), US1 (USA) — whereas Global (lowest-latency) puts a behaviour descriptor where the others put a location. The sentence directly below the table already explains the lowest-latency routing, so consider just Global in the Region column to keep the reference table structurally consistent.

(Ref: style guide, Reference — "Every entry must be structurally consistent with every other entry of the same type.")

:::info
You can also connect to `wss://global.rt.speechmatics.com/v2/`, which automatically routes to the lowest-latency region. Customers with data residency requirements should use a regional endpoint (`eu.rt` / `us.rt`) instead. See [Supported endpoints](/get-started/authentication#supported-endpoints).

Three small consistency points on this note:

  1. Person — "Customers with data residency requirements should use…" is third person, while the matching warning on the authentication page uses second person ("If you have data residency or compliance requirements…"). The style guide defaults to "you"; worth matching.
  2. Hostnames — this abbreviates eu.rt / us.rt, whereas the authentication page uses the full eu.rt.speechmatics.com / us.rt.speechmatics.com. Suggest the full forms.
  3. Duplication — the data-residency caveat now lives on both this page and the authentication page. Since this note already links to Supported endpoints, consider trimming it to the new fact (you can connect to the global endpoint) plus the link, and letting the authentication page be authoritative on the caveat.

(Refs: style guide #6 second person; terminology consistency; governance — link rather than duplicate.)
