unity/inference-engine-whisper-tiny needs about 1.3 GB of GPU memory. It runs on one Quadro P4000 from $0.07/h right now; best value: RTX 5090 at $0.65/h.

These ONNX files are an export for running in a browser (an audio encoder and a text decoder, each a version here): served as tensors, they do not make a transcript. For speech to text, pick the original model (for example openai/whisper-base), served with vLLM.
