Open the original- What it measures
- The answer sits under the question "Which languages does Hallig recognize?". The recognition table on the same page lists WhisperKit as covering most languages, with the number 99 in brackets, and a model download of 632 MB.
- What it does not show
- The page gives the figure for this engine only. Hallig does not state one total for the app, because the count depends on the recognition the user picks. The page says a model is downloaded once and then runs without internet.
