WindyWord.ai STT — Hebrew Lingua (GPU (safetensors))

Part of the Windstorm Labs open model catalogue. Scores, licence and attribution for every model: https://windytranslate.com/models/listen-windy-lingua-he

Licence under review: the upstream model oridror/whisper-large-v3-turbo-hebrew-r1-myd-r1 does not declare a licence on Hugging Face. Do not rely on this repository for commercial use until this note is removed.

Transcribes Hebrew speech (Afro-Asiatic > Semitic).

Note: Replaces a previous build whose weights were incomplete (decoder layers 10-23 missing) and produced gibberish output. Now derived from oridror/whisper-large-v3-turbo-hebrew-r1-myd-r1 (Whisper Large-v3 turbo Hebrew fine-tune). Verified post-upload at WER 24.2% / CER 11.5% / script-match 99% on 20-sample FLEURS he_il — GOOD tier. Tokenizer/preprocessor files filled in from openai/whisper-large-v3 since the upstream fine-tune omits them.

Quality

• FLEURS WER: 66.9% (50-sample audit)
• CER: 0.3902
• Band: unusable-gap
• Source: our 50-sample FLEURS screening (not a publication result)

Part of the WindyWord.ai STT fleet — covering 35+ languages that commercial speech-to-text APIs underserve, with proper dialect / script disclosures where they matter.
