Standard ASR
The open standard interface between applications and speech-recognition engines.
Standard ASR defines a vendor-neutral protocol. Applications integrate speech-to-text once and gain every compliant engine; engines implement it once and reach every application. Think USB-C for ASR inference.
Pre-release: Standard ASR is a work in progress. Breaking changes may occur before
v1.0.0. Try it out and tell us what you think.
Who is this for?
| Who you are | What you get |
|---|---|
| An application developer | One integration that works with every compliant engine. Zero vendor lock-in. Automatic discovery of whatever the user installs. |
| An ASR engine developer | Focus on the model. Implement one interface and get a CLI, a reference server, and a compliance test suite for free. |
| An end user | Install the plugin whose engine fits your language or domain and use it immediately, without waiting for the app author to add support. |
