Home Assistant Add-on: ONNX ASR

Could you try again? :slight_smile:

It works now

For anyone reading, I tried this for the first time with the parakeet v3 multilingual models and it’s 4 o 5x faster than whisper turbo while being as accurate or (subjectively) even more accurate, at least in spanish.

It’s even usable on CPU (~1s on my intel nuc with an i3).

After a quick test as an addon I ended up installing as a docker container so I have full access to my GPU (RTX 3060) and it’s insanely fast, we’re talking 0.05s per command, while whisper-turbo took ~0.35s and, IMO, had worse results.

So far the only downside I’ve been able to detect is that it uses more vram than whisper-turbo, which is a bit surprising since parakeet it’s a 0.6B model.
