Speaker Recognition feature is not available to you if you are a small startup

[pfgarvey]

I wish MS would let developers and architects know that this feature is not available to them unless they work for LARGE companies that have managed account with MS. I did a lot of work only to be told that since I was a small company I can't use it. Tell people up front in plain English. Thanks

@pfgarvey Thanks for your contribution. Microsoft does limit access to Speaker Recognition, and it is only available to customers who are managed by Microsoft, meaning those who are working directly with Microsoft account teams. This information is available on the Azure Cognitive Services Speaker Recognition Limited Access Review page, which states that "Speaker Recognition is a Limited Access service. Only customers managed by Microsoft are eligible for access." Please add your ideas in below link, so our production team can review it and update the same. Ideas · Community (azure.com)
