parakeet.cpp brings NVIDIA Parakeet ASR to ggml for fast Python‑free inference
The mudler/parakeet.cpp repo ports NVIDIA’s NeMo Parakeet speech‑to‑text models to pure C++ using ggml, delivering CPU and GPU inference without Python or PyTorch. It supports FastConformer TDT/CTC/RNNT models, offers GGUF quantization, and achieves byte‑identical transcripts while running up to 4× faster than the original runtime.
