Whistle runs a local speech-to-text model on CPU

Cactus Compute 5 days ago 23

Whistle released a local CPU speech-to-text model that transcribes up to 30 seconds of audio for multiple languages and returns word-level timestamps and speech embeddings on-device. The model downloads as a single 16.9 MB file. As a result, speech audio no longer needs to leave the device and can be turned directly into tool calls using the same C++ engine binary as Needle.
