Quick Start
Native Transformers
For Fun-ASR-Nano transcription with the Hugging Face API, start with the Transformers 5.17.0 CPU quickstart. No FunASR toolkit or remote Python code is needed.

FunASR toolkit and pipelines
No local setup? Open the Colab quickstart to transcribe a public sample or upload your own audio in a browser.
Found FunASR useful? Star the project so more builders can find it.
# CPU-only installs can use the default PyPI wheels.
pip install torch torchaudio
pip install funasrFor GPU quickstarts, install the PyTorch and torchaudio wheels that match your NVIDIA driver from pytorch.org before installing FunASR. After installation, confirm the GPU is visible:
python - <<'PY'
import torch
print(torch.cuda.is_available())
PYOnly use device="cuda" when this prints True; otherwise use device="cpu" or reinstall PyTorch with the correct CUDA wheel.
FunASR toolkit GPU example: Fun-ASR-Nano (Chinese, English, Japanese, and Chinese dialect groups and regional accents; the separate native Transformers CPU path is linked above):
from funasr import AutoModel
model = AutoModel(model="FunAudioLLM/Fun-ASR-Nano-2512", device="cuda")
result = model.generate(input="https://isv-data.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/ics/MaaS/ASR/test_audio/asr_example_zh.wav")
print(result[0]["text"])Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
