Built as a drop-in whisper.cpp replacement, it addresses the pain of distributing cross-platform speech-to-text apps by offering GPU acceleration via Vulkan, Metal, CUDA, and TinyBLAS. Every supported model is numerically validated and WER-tested against reference implementations. The library ships with first-party bindings for Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Rust, and ObjC/Swift. It was created by the maintainer of the Handy speech-to-text app and supported by Mozilla AI's BiR program. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
