GGUF conversions of nvidia/parakeet-unified-en-0.6b for use with transcribe.cpp. Ported from upstream commit d4ac992, pinned 2026-05-10. Validated against the NeMo reference at transcribe.cpp commit 42528dd on 2026-05-10. English speech-to-text with punctuation and capitalization. A FastConformer encoder with an RNN-T transducer decoder, trained as a 'unified' streaming/offline model. This port runs the model in both offline and buffered streaming modes. WER on the full LibriSpeech test-clean split (2,620 utterances), batch size 1, timestamps none. Figures without a commit were published before provenance was recorded. Greedy RNN-T decoding, no external LM. F32 reference baseline: 1.59%. NVIDIA's self-reported number on the same split is 1.63%. Build transcribe.cpp from source: Run on a 16 kHz mono WAV: If your audio isn't already 16 kHz mono WAV, convert it first: See the transcribe.cpp model page for performance numbers, numerical validation, and reproduction steps. Inherited from the base model: NVIDIA Open Model License. See the upstream model…

Compatibility and lineage

Reported languages: en

Reported base models: nvidia/parakeet-unified-en-0.6b

Parameter count is not a RAM/VRAM requirement. Check precision, quantization, context length and runtime compatibility in the model card; no hardware or API-cost claim is inferred here.

Use and evaluate

Check license terms and access requirements first. Review the model card’s documented loading instructions, evaluations and safety limitations. Benchmark scores are not imported by this directory, and popularity is not an accuracy ranking.

No model weights are downloaded or executed by AltAPIs. Never enable remote model code without reviewing it.
