Quick Start

Use with the Whissle STT Inference Server (ONNX, CPU):

git clone https://github.com/WhissleAI/whissle_stt_inference.git
cd whissle_stt_inference
./setup.sh --model en-meta

Or load directly with NeMo:

import nemo.collections.asr as nemo_asr

asr_model = nemo_asr.models.ASRModel.from_pretrained("WhissleAI/STT-meta-1B")
transcriptions = asr_model.transcribe(["/path/to/your/audio.wav"])

Also usable with PromptingNemo.
