faster-whisper
CTranslate2-based Whisper with 4x faster transcription
About
faster-whisper is a reimplementation of OpenAI Whisper using CTranslate2, a Transformer inference engine that produces transcripts up to four times faster than openai-whisper at the same accuracy while using less memory. Further speedups are available via 8-bit quantization on CPU or GPU. Audio decoding uses PyAV, so an external FFmpeg install is not required. Maintained by SYSTRAN, released under the MIT license.
