Moonshine is a family of speech-to-text models optimized for fast and accurate automatic speech recognition (ASR) on resource-constrained devices

t is well-suited to real-time, on-device applications like live transcription and voice command recognition. Moonshine obtains word-error rates (WER) better than similarly-sized tiny.en and base.en Whisper models from OpenAI on the datasets used in the OpenASR leaderboard maintained by HuggingFace:
