Voxtral Mini 3B
Speech turned into text. Send a recording and get its transcript, with the language detected or named.
What runs
This is the whole app. The entry names the model and what serves it, and the build turns that into these files: there is nothing else to write.

}What it costs
This entry is pinned to l40s, which is the card it was tested on rather than the only one it runs on: --gpu-typedeploys it somewhere else. You pay for that card by the second while a worker holds it, and for nothing else. Pricing covers what meters, and the rates are published per GPU-second.
