May 31, 2026
parakeet.cpp is a GGML-based inference pipeline for NVIDIA's Parakeet speech recognition models, delivering 2x throughput over ONNX-based pipelines on Apple Silicon. It runs locally and leverages GGML's Metal backend for on-device ASR.
HOW THIS AFFECTS YOU
●
builderYou can swap ONNX-based Parakeet inference for this GGML pipeline to cut ASR latency in half on Apple Silicon, useful for local or edge speech applications.
