## Changelog

### 2026-09-24 — Reliability and charging

- Public Instagram embed resolution now tries remaining routes after a network error, then attempts the datacenter proxy when direct routes are exhausted.
- Transcript charges now follow successful dataset delivery; a failed dataset write does not trigger a transcript charge.

### 0.1.2

- Improved reliability when Instagram challenges direct cloud requests by retrying public embed metadata through a cost-safe Apify datacenter route.

### 0.1.1

- Updated the recurring monitoring example to use two speech-bearing public videos from TED and BBC.

### 0.1.0

- Added public Instagram Reel and video-post transcription from supplied URLs.
- Added detected or requested language, clean transcript text, timestamped segments, duration, author, caption, and source provenance.
- Added bounded video duration and batch limits plus fallback across Instagram's public Reel and post embed URL forms; private, unavailable, image-only, and silent content is not charged as a transcript.
