Melange: On-device AI for Mobile β Select. Benchmark. Deploy.
β‘οΈ What is ZETIC-ai/whisper-tiny-decoder?
ZETIC-ai/whisper-tiny-encoder is a highly optimized version of Whisper Tiny by OpenAI, built to run on-device (Android, iOS) with Melange SDK.
For the encoder model that runs locally: Check model card
Key Details:
- π― Task: Automatic Speech Recognition
- π Engine: ZETIC Melange Runtime
- π‘ Best For: Speech to Text, Speech Translation
Unlike standard GGUF or ONNX exports where you manually download .tflite or .gguf files and bundle them into your APK/IPA, this model is fetched automatically by the Melange SDK at runtime: no asset management, no file hosting, no bloated app sizes.
π How to Use
Deploy in seconds. The Melange SDK handles model fetching, NPU delegation, and hardware acceleration automatically.
Android (Kotlin)
val model = ZeticMLangeHFModel(context, "ZETIC-ai/whisper-tiny-decoder")
val output = model.run(inputData)
iOS (Swift)
let model = try await ZeticMLangeHFModel("ZETIC-ai/whisper-tiny-decoder")
let outputs = try model.run(inputs: inputs)

π€ Why Melange?
1. The Old Way (Slow & Manual)
Separate iOS/Android Workflows | Manual Updates Require Full Re-Deployment
2. Semi-Auto SDKs (Hardware-Locked)
Hardware-Locked Model Cards | Manual File Management (Drag & Drop)
3. The Melange Way (Fast & Automatic)
Device-Aware Auto-Routing | Hardware-Agnostic NPU API | Small App Size
β
Zero Asset Management: We host the model & the complexity. Your app calls '[MODEL_ID]', and we deliver.
β
Automatic Fetching: The SDK streams the model at initialization, no manual file uploads.
β
Device-Aware Auto-Routing: The SDK auto-detects and routes the best-fit runtime variant for that device.
β
Unified Workflow: Maintain a single, identical deployment path for both iOS and Android.
β
Instant Updates: Push model updates instantly without waiting for App Store approvals.
β
Global Scale: Optimized paths for mid-range and low-end chips, not just flagships.

ZETIC Hugging Face Runtime Bundle
This release includes a pre-optimized runtime + model bundle enabling local, on-device inference across compatible devices.
The runtime is optimized and benchmarked for a limited set of flagship devices.
On other compatible devices, the model may still run, but performance may vary.
Advanced device coverage and performance guarantees are available via the Melange Dashboard (Pro).
You may
- Run the model locally on compatible devices
- Embed it in applications distributed to end users
- Use it in accordance with the base model license
You may not
- Extract or reuse the runtime outside this package
- Reverse engineer the optimization format
- Redistribute the runtime as a standalone SDK or service
- Bypass license verification or telemetry (if/when enabled)
