whisper.cpp is a lightweight, C/C++ reimplementation of OpenAI’s Whisper automatic speech recognition (ASR) model—designed for efficient, standalone transcription without external dependencies. The entire high-level implementation of the model is contained in whisper.h and whisper.cpp. The rest of the code is part of the ggml machine learning library. The command downloads the base.en model converted to custom ggml format and runs the inference on all .wav samples in the folder samples....

...It focuses on running entirely locally, eliminating the need for cloud APIs and providing low latency and strong privacy guarantees, even on constrained devices like Raspberry Pi boards and e-readers. The core model is highly compact at around 66 million parameters, yet benchmarks show it can generate speech up to 167× faster than real time on modern consumer hardware and significantly outpace popular cloud TTS APIs in throughput and real-time factor. Supertonic is designed to handle real-world text gracefully, including numbers, dates, currency symbols, abbreviations, and technical units, without requiring heavy pre-processing or custom text normalization. ...
