Model Detail

Breeze-ASR-26 is an audio model with 772M parameters released by MediaTek-Research. The model is registered under the automatic-speech-recognition pipeline tag on Hugging Face, distributed under the permissive apache-2.0 license.

Breeze-ASR-26 ships with 772M parameters. Total weight footprint is approximately 1.5 GB, which is the relevant figure when planning local-inference VRAM. The apache-2.0 license is permissive, allowing commercial deployment and derivative work without per-seat fees, though attribution requirements still apply.

Breeze-ASR-26 is best fit for speech recognition, transcription, or speech synthesis depending on the task head. Treat this as a starting matrix rather than a benchmark verdict — the right deployment usually depends on the specific evaluation suite that mirrors your workload.
