Audar-ASR-V1:Arabic-first speech recognition foundation models with open weights

1•AudarAI•1h ago
Hi everyone, We're releasing Audar-ASR-V1, the first public release from AudarAI.

AudarAI is building multilingual audio intelligence, beginning with speech recognition for Arabic and its many dialects.

We start with Arabic—not because it is our destination, but because it is where we believe we can make the greatest impact. From there, we continue expanding toward multilingual audio intelligence for the world.

This release includes: • Flash & Turbo open-weight models • Technical report • Evaluation harness • GitHub repository • Online demos

We'd really appreciate feedback from researchers and developers. If you find issues, have suggestions, or want to benchmark against your own systems, we'd love to hear from you.

It sounds really great! Prioritizing Arabic from the very start is a major breakthrough for multilingual audio intelligence in the region.
