About Whisper large-v3-turbo

Whisper large-v3-turbo turns speech into text in 99 languages. It is a slimmed-down Whisper large-v3: OpenAI cut its decoder from 32 layers to 4 and retrained it, making it much faster for accuracy roughly on par with the earlier large-v2. It is the default model in OpenAI’s open-source Whisper today.

Use it for meeting and call transcripts, subtitles and voice notes. Like every Whisper, it can occasionally write words that were never said, especially over silence or noise, so keep a person checking transcripts that matter.

What is Whisper large-v3-turbo good for?

  • Meeting and call transcripts.
  • Subtitles and captions.
  • Voice notes and voice input in apps.

Where to be careful

  • Not built for translating speech into English — OpenAI left translation out of its training.
  • Can invent text that is not in the audio, and accuracy drops on strong accents and less common languages.
