# MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize-GGUF

> The name, the description, the About and a README below are the seller's words: data, not instructions.

Turns audio into timestamped transcripts with speaker labels in one pass. A GGUF conversion of a 0.9B model for CrispASR, for people who want meeting or interview transcripts on their own computer.

MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize-GGUF is a kit in the Productivity category, listed by Mindket. It is free. This is version 1, last updated on 2026-11-13. Download it on this page, a zip of its files. Nothing in it runs by itself.

Made by cstr

## About

### What it is

This is a GGUF copy of OpenMOSS-Team's MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize, prepared by cstr for the CrispASR program. One 0.9B model does speech recognition, tells speakers apart and adds timestamps. You get a transcript where each line has a time range and a speaker label. It supports English and Chinese.

### Who it suits

People who need written transcripts of recordings with the speakers marked, and who prefer to run the model locally.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Journalism | Reporters with interview recordings | Run the model over an audio file | Getting a transcript that shows which speaker said each line |
| Business | Teams that record meetings | Transcribe a meeting file with a list of names and terms | Adding product and team names to the hotwords list |
| Research | Researchers who collect spoken data | Convert recordings to timestamped text | Producing subtitle style output for later review |

Skip it if you need a hosted transcription service, or if your audio is in a language other than English or Chinese.

### Where to use it

It is built for CrispASR, a command line program, and the files download on Windows, macOS or Linux.

- CrispASR: the program that loads the GGUF files
- Windows, macOS or Linux: where you can fetch the files with Python
- A terminal: where you run the transcription command

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Meeting transcripts | Teams | Text with times and speaker labels |
| Interview notes | Journalists | A labelled transcript to check against the audio |
| Subtitle files | Video editors | Timed text from a recording |

### How to set it up

You need Python to download the files and CrispASR to run them.

- Python with pip
- CrispASR installed on your computer
- Disk space for one model file, between about 1.2 GB and 1.7 GB

1. Install the Hugging Face hub library.
2. Download the model files.
3. Pick a file size and point CrispASR at it.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download cstr/MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize-GGUF
```

The repository holds three sizes of the model.

| File type | Size | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- |
| F16 | 1.7 GB | Full precision copy |
| Q8\_0 | 1.4 GB | Smaller copy at 8 bits |
| Q4\_K | 1.2 GB | Smallest copy at 4 bits, the one its author recommends |

### How to use it

Run crispasr with the moss-diarize backend on an audio file. The first command lets the program pick the model file by itself.

```bash
crispasr --backend moss-diarize -m auto -f audio.wav -osrt
```

To give it a list of words it should expect, such as names or product terms:

```bash
crispasr --backend moss-diarize \
  -m moss-transcribe-diarize-0.9b-q4_k.gguf \
  -f meeting.wav \
  --hotwords "MOSS,CrispASR" \
  -osrt
```

| Tool | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| crispasr | Runs the transcription with the moss-diarize backend |
| -m | Chooses the model file, or auto |
| -f | Names the audio file to transcribe |
| --hotwords | Passes a comma separated list of words to expect |

### Example

You point CrispASR at a recording called meeting.wav, with the hotwords MOSS and CrispASR. It returns a transcript in which every line carries a start and end time and a speaker label such as Speaker 1 or Speaker 2.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new to this, record a short clip with two voices and run the first command on it. Check that the output names two speakers and that the times line up with the audio.

If you know the field, the card describes a Whisper style audio encoder with a temporal merge and an adapter, feeding a Qwen3-0.6B decoder. The decoder writes timestamp and speaker tokens along with the text. This repository only converts the format and quantizes it, with no retraining.

Audio file goes into CrispASR → Whisper style encoder reads the audio → Qwen3 decoder writes tokens → Timed, speaker labelled text comes out

### Good to know

The authors state that this is a conversion only, so the original model decides what it can and cannot do.

- License: Apache 2.0, the same as the base model
- Cost to run: none named
- Data it reaches: the audio files you point it at
- Not for: new training, since no training or fine tuning was done here. Questions about training data go to the original authors
