# WindyWord.ai STT — Windy Edge
**Multilingual speech-to-text engine. Transcribes audio in 100+ languages, with English as the primary trained domain.**
## Profile
- **Architecture:** 756M params · distil-whisper-large-v3
- **Profile:** edge / mobile
- **Base model:** [distil-whisper/distil-large-v3](https://huggingface.co/distil-whisper/distil-large-v3)
## Variants in this repo
| Subfolder | Format | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| `safetensors/` | PyTorch safetensors (FP32) | GPU inference (highest quality) |
| `ct2-int8/` | CTranslate2 INT8 | CPU inference (~25% size, 2-4× faster) |
| `onnx/` | ONNX FP32 | Cross-platform deployment |
| `onnx-int8/` | ONNX INT8 | Edge / mobile / WebAssembly |
## Usage
```python
from transformers import WhisperForConditionalGeneration, WhisperProcessor
processor = WhisperProcessor.from_pretrained("WindyWord/listen-windy-edge", subfolder="safetensors")
model = WhisperForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("WindyWord/listen-windy-edge", subfolder="safetensors")
```
For CPU inference via CTranslate2:
```python
import ctranslate2
# After downloading the ct2-int8 subfolder:
model = ctranslate2.models.Whisper("path/to/ct2-int8/")
```
## Commercial Use
