Tool	Type	What it does
`speechmatics_list_jobs`	read	List jobs List your transcription jobs most-recent-first, each with its status, source data name, and audio duration, with optional pagination and deleted-job filters.
`speechmatics_get_job`	read	Get job Fetch a single job's full details and current status (running, done, rejected, deleted, or expired) so you can poll until the transcript is ready.
