**VibeVoice-ASR** is a unified speech-to-text model designed to handle **60-minute long-form audio** in a single pass, generating structured transcriptions containing **Who (Speaker), When (Timestamps), and What (Content)**, with support for **Customized Hotwords**.
**Model:** [VibeVoice-ASR-7B](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/VibeVoice-ASR)<br>
**Demo:** [VibeVoice-ASR-Demo](https://aka.ms/vibevoice-asr)<br>
## 🔥 Key Features
- **🕒 60-minute Single-Pass Processing**:
Unlike conventional ASR models that slice audio into short chunks (often losing global context), VibeVoice ASR accepts up to **60 minutes** of continuous audio input within 64K token length. This ensures consistent speaker tracking and semantic coherence across the entire hour.
- **👤 Customized Hotwords**:
Users can provide customized hotwords (e.g., specific names, technical terms, or background info) to guide the recognition process, significantly improving accuracy on domain-specific content.
- **📝 Rich Transcription (Who, When, What)**:
The model jointly performs ASR, diarization, and timestamping, producing a structured output that indicates *who* said *what* and *when*.

## Installation
We recommend to use NVIDIA Deep Learning Container to manage the CUDA environment.
1. Launch docker
```bash
# NVIDIA PyTorch Container 24.07 ~ 25.12 verified.
# Previous versions are also compatible.
sudo docker run --privileged --net=host --ipc=host --ulimit memlock=-1:-1 --ulimit stack=-1:-1 --gpus all --rm -it nvcr.io/nvidia/pytorch:25.12-py3
## If flash attention is not included in your docker environment, you need to install it manually
## Refer to https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention for installation instructions
# pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation
```
2. Install from github
```bash
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/VibeVoice.git
cd VibeVoice
pip install -e .[asr]
```
## Usages
### Usage 1: Launch Gradio demo
```bash
apt update && apt install ffmpeg -y # for demo
python demo/vibevoice_asr_gradio_demo.py --model_path microsoft/VibeVoice-ASR --share
```
### Usage 2: Inference from files directly
```bash
python demo/vibevoice_asr_inference_from_file.py --model_path microsoft/VibeVoice-ASR --audio_files [add a audio path here]
```
