# moonshine-base (Vokra GGUF)

Converted to the Vokra GGUF format for [Vokra](https://github.com/ayutaz/vokra), a zero-dependency speech-AI inference runtime.

**This is a conversion, not a new model.** The weights are the upstream ones; Vokra re-packages them so its runtime can memory-map them directly. Credit for the model belongs upstream — see *Source* below.

Every row above is read out of this file's own `vokra.*` metadata, so the card cannot claim something the artifact does not carry.

## Licence

The weights are distributed under **mit**, unchanged from upstream. Conversion does not alter the licence, and your obligations run to the upstream author.
