WindyWord.ai STT — Hindi Lingua (CPU INT8 (CTranslate2))
Transcribes Hindi speech (Indo-European > Indo-Iranian > Indo-Aryan).
Note: Outputs Hindi audio as Latin-script Hinglish, NOT Devanagari. FLEURS-Devanagari WER ≈100% is a script mismatch, not a quality failure. Useful for code-switched / chat / SMS contexts. For Devanagari output, use a separate model (not yet shipped).
Quality
- WER: unverified by WindyWord harness yet. Imported from upstream community fine-tune.
About this variant
This is the ct2-int8 deployment format of our Hindi Lingua STT model. Load it via the ct2-int8/ subfolder.
Part of the WindyWord.ai STT fleet — covering 35+ languages that commercial speech-to-text APIs underserve, with proper dialect / script disclosures where they matter.
