Model overview
Distil-Whisper was proposed in the paper Robust Knowledge Distillation via Large-Scale Pseudo Labelling. It is a distilled version of the Whisper model that is **6 times faster**, 49% smaller, and performs **within 1% WER** on out-of-distribution evaluation sets. This is the repository for distil-medium.en, a distilled variant of Whisper medium.en. **Note:** Distil-Whisper is currently only available for English speech recognition. We are working with the community to distill Whisper on other languages. If you are interested in distilling Whisper in your language, check out the provided training code. We will update the Distil-Whisper repository with multilingual checkpoints when ready!

Limitations & considerations
Sources are insufficient to establish specific limitations. Verify task performance, latency, data policies, licensing and version lifecycle.
Source prices & cost analysis
Prices vary by channel, region and configuration. Channel quotes are listed independently and are not treated as a single official provider price.

Do open weights permit free commercial use?
Not necessarily. Check the version license, commercial conditions and usage policies. Self-hosting incurs compute and maintenance costs.
Are these real-time billing prices?
These are timestamped source snapshots, not live billing prices. Check the channel for current versions, regions, discounts and billing methods.
