#### Why creating this dataset?
We present a high-quality Hebrew speech transcription dataset generated using the **Whisper Turbo** model.
In contrast, **HebDB** (https://pages.cs.huji.ac.il/adiyoss-lab/HebDB/) relies on **Whisper Large**, which is demonstrably inferior to Whisper Turbo in transcription accuracy and robustness.
Furthermore, HebDB distributes audio files with **Hebrew filenames**, an avoidable design choice that introduces unnecessary friction into modern training pipelines and preprocessing workflows.
Our dataset is **deliberately engineered for research and large-scale training**, requiring no additional normalization or restructuring, and is immediately usable for training a wide range of speech and language models.
