NVIDIA Releases Open Nemotron 3.5 Transcribe Speech Model and Granary v2 Data
NVIDIA released Nemotron 3.5 Transcribe, an open-weight promptable speech model that combines transcription, speaker attribution, translation, and audio question answering in one checkpoint. It transcribes 40 languages, translates 31 to or from English, attributes speakers in 13, handles recordings up to an hour, and labels up to eight speakers. The post also describes Granary v2 multilingual data, a curation pipeline, and NeMo Speech fine-tuning tools for domain adaptation.

A READER'S EVIDENCE CHECKHow to read this signalSix questions about claims, sources, risks, and open checks
This is a signal-level guide until claim-level evidence is available. “Not recorded” means the evidence has not been assessed here; it does not mean a result is false. How we check AI news →
- 01Who is making each claim?
The claimant and whether each claim was measured or asserted are not recorded in this public brief.
- 02What was actually tested?
Not recorded per claim. Check the source for sample size, tasks, model and benchmark versions, and reproducibility.
- 03Where are the sources?
Original link: huggingface.co. Brief basis: fetched source page. Primary page date and quote locations are not established in this panel.
- 04What could mislead?
Benchmark results are reported by NVIDIA and third-party leaderboards as described in the post; source claims not independently checked. Quantized versions and local deployment are noted as coming soon, and the model is built for recorded rather than live-streaming audio.
- 05What is at risk if wrong?
Not assessed per claim. Consider safety, privacy, cost, and adoption decisions before relying on the result.
- 06What would change the view?
No claim-specific check is recorded. An inspectable primary method or independent replication could change the assessment.
Key findings from the stored brief
- Transcribe supports 40 transcription languages, translation for 31 languages to or from English, and speaker attribution in 13 languages.
- On the Hugging Face Open ASR Leaderboard, it ranks first among open-weight models for English at 5.33% average WER.
- On David AI's diarization track across 21 languages, it posts the lowest diarization error rate of 14 systems tested (18.26%).
- In a medical case study, fine-tuning cut word error rate on held-out speakers by 45.8% relative to the best prompt.
Benchmark results are reported by NVIDIA and third-party leaderboards as described in the post; source claims not independently checked. Quantized versions and local deployment are noted as coming soon, and the model is built for recorded rather than live-streaming audio.

Timeline & updates
- Signal dated by source or discovery feed
This timestamp places the signal in the radar. It may be the discovery post date rather than the primary page's first publication date.
- Shared brief stored
AINewsIQ prepared one abstract from fetched source page.
A publication revision history is not stored for this signal. New engagement snapshots do not mean the source itself changed.
Why this may matter
An open, promptable model that handles transcription, speaker labels, and translation together lowers the barrier for developers building meeting, classroom, and medical transcription tools, and offers fine-tuning paths for domain vocabulary and accents.
Limits and open questions
Benchmark results are reported by NVIDIA and third-party leaderboards as described in the post; source claims not independently checked. Quantized versions and local deployment are noted as coming soon, and the model is built for recorded rather than live-streaming audio.
Organization-specific financial, security, and operational effects require the organization's own context and review.
