Open the original- What it measures
- The guide describes Parakeet as the faster choice for English and European languages, and Whisper large-v3-turbo as the choice for broader language coverage. It gives no language count for Parakeet.
- What it does not show
- This is the coverage of one selectable model, not of the whole app. The count is the model's, as the maker restates it. The same sentence also says Whisper can translate speech to English, which is not a recognition count.
