All builds for this model:

Whisper Tiny is OpenAI's 39M-parameter multilingual Whisper checkpoint, the smallest member of the Whisper family. It uses the standard Whisper encoder-decoder architecture for automatic speech recognition and speech translation, trained with large-scale weak supervision on 680k hours of labelled speech. The tiny model trades some accuracy for the lowest footprint and fastest inference, which suits low-resource devices and latency-sensitive use. This OpenASR repo repackages the original openai/whisper-tiny weights as .oasr packs that run natively in the OpenASR runtime with no Python at inference time. For most users the q8_0 build is the recommended default; q4_k is for the tightest memory budgets and fp16 is for verification or maximum fidelity.

Converted from openai/whisper-tiny with the OpenASR importer:

The .oasr container is GGUF-backed; packs use zero-copy mmap weight binding and graph buffer reuse to keep peak memory low.

These packs inherit the upstream model's license: Apache-2.0 (source). OpenASR packaging retains the upstream copyright and NOTICE; the only modifications are format conversion and quantization.

This pack is a redistribution of Whisper Tiny, released by OpenAI (openai/whisper-tiny). All credit for the original model, training recipe, and weights belongs to OpenAI. The upstream Hugging Face model card declares Apache-2.0 licensing; OpenASR only converts the weights into .oasr packages and adds quantized builds for local runtime use.
