primeline-parakeet-onnx

primeline-parakeet — ONNX

ONNX export of primeline/parakeet-primeline, a 600M-parameter German ASR model built on the NVIDIA FastConformer encoder with a Token-and-Duration Transducer (TDT) decoder. The export runs on ONNX Runtime through onnx-asr, so transcription needs neither PyTorch nor the NeMo toolkit. Output keeps punctuation and capitalisation.

Usage

import onnx_asr

model = onnx_asr.load_model("OpenVoiceOS/primeline-parakeet-onnx")
print(model.recognize("audio.wav"))

The int8 weights load with quantization="int8".

In OpenVoiceOS, select it through ovos-stt-plugin-onnx-asr:

{
  "stt": {
    "module": "ovos-stt-plugin-onnx-asr",
    "ovos-stt-plugin-onnx-asr": {
      "model": "OpenVoiceOS/primeline-parakeet-onnx"
    }
  }
}

Export

Exported with NeMo ASRModel.restore_from(...) followed by model.export(), which writes the encoder and the fused decoder-joint graph separately. INT8 variants come from ONNX Runtime dynamic quantization with per-channel weights.

Verification

Transcribed five German sentences rendered by gTTS. Both the FP32 and the INT8 variant scored 0% word error rate and reproduced the punctuation and capitalisation of the source text. This is a smoke test on synthetic speech, not a benchmark — for accuracy figures on real corpora see the WER table on the base model card.
