Moonshine Tiny -- GGUF

GGUF conversions and quantisations of UsefulSensors/moonshine-tiny for use with CrispStrobe/CrispASR.

Available variants

File Quant Size Notes
moonshine-tiny.gguf F32 104 MB Full precision
moonshine-tiny-q8_0.gguf Q8_0 33 MB High quality
moonshine-tiny-q4_k.gguf Q4_K 21 MB Best size/quality tradeoff

All variants produce correct transcription on test audio.

Provenance and EU AI Act Art. 53 note

  • Upstream model: UsefulSensors/moonshine-tiny — published by UsefulSensors.
  • Upstream licence: mit. This repository redistributes under the same terms; it grants no rights the upstream licence does not.
  • What was done here: format conversion and/or quantisation only (GGUF/GGML). No training, no fine-tuning, no merging, no distillation, no change to architecture, vocabulary or capability. Only the numeric representation of the upstream weights differs.
  • Training data: documented — where it is documented at all — by the upstream provider; see the upstream model card. No training data was used, added or selected by this repository.
  • Provider status: under Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 the upstream authors remain the provider of this model. Converting the serialisation format does not make this repository the provider of a new general-purpose AI model, and no such claim is made. Questions about training content, copyright policy or model capability belong upstream.
