Amharic speech recognition, metered per second of audio.

Amharic speech, written clearly.

Hohe ASR ships with open weights and is scored on an Amharic benchmark we published. It is small enough to run inside a browser tab with no GPU, which is why the subtitle generator can transcribe on a mid-range Android phone, and the hosted API exists for everything that is not a browser.

What it does

Amharic, with Afaan Oromoo in training
Runs in the browser with no GPU, or through the hosted API
Word timings for subtitles and alignment
Idempotency keys, so a retry is never billed twice
