Every report of broken output or files has a Cohere reply or is closed, and Cohere's docs carry a dated changelog entry. Replies stop on 20 April, with 11 of 23 answered and none of the 4 opened since. The commit history and config are behind the gate and weren't read.

Transformers from v5.4.0 and vLLM run it, while llama.cpp, Ollama and LM Studio don't. Apache 2.0 with nothing added, behind an automatic click-through gate that needs an account. Cohere's Audio Transcriptions API is free with rate limits on a trial key and fal hosts it too, but no Model Vault hourly price is in the dossier.

The card says there are no timestamps or diarisation, and no JSON or segment output is documented. The Open ASR Leaderboard records 5.77 average WER on English short-form, 12.23 on long-form and an RTFx of 902.46.

The gate hides LFS hashes from anyone who hasn't accepted it, so checksums couldn't be confirmed. The card warns the model transcribes non-speech sounds and recommends a noise gate or voice activity detection. Cohere has a disclosure policy and bug bounty, and whether they cover the model is unchecked. No safety results exist.
