     """Pipecat TTS service for Rime's non-JSON WebSocket API.
 
+    .. deprecated:: 0.0.102
+        Arcana now supports JSON WebSocket with word-level timestamps via the
+        ``wss://users-ws.rime.ai/ws3`` endpoint. Use :class:`RimeTTSService`
+        with ``model="arcana"`` instead.
+
     This service enables Text-to-Speech synthesis over WebSocket endpoints
     that require plain text (not JSON) messages and return raw audio bytes.
-    It is designed for use with TTS models like Arcana, which currently do
-    not support JSON-based WebSocket protocols (though this may change in
-    the future).
 
     Limitations:
         - Does not support word-level timestamps or context IDs.
         - Intended specifically for integrations where the TTS provider only
           accepts and returns non-JSON messages.
-
-    Note:
-        - Arcana and similar models may add JSON WebSocket support in the
-          future. This service focuses on the current plain text protocol.
