Fun-ASR-Nano is an open-weight audio or speech model from FunAudioLLM. Fun-ASR-Nano-GGUF (GGUF) weighs 805 MB; the smallest configuration that runs it is RTX 3060 12 GB.

For self-hosting, compare this build's requirements below with the GPU you plan to rent.

  • Fun-ASR-Nano is an automatic speech recognition model developed by FunAudioLLM that supports Chinese and English.
  • It combines a SenseVoice SAN-M encoder with a Qwen3-0.6B LLM decoder and is distributed as GGUF weights for a zero-Python, CPU-based runtime.
  • The model is licensed under Apache-2.0 and achieves an 8.30% character error rate on a Mandarin benchmark.

From the model card

What FunAudioLLM says about Fun-ASR-Nano

Read the model card

GGUF build of Fun-ASR-Nano (SenseVoice SAN-M encoder + adaptor + Qwen3-0.6B LLM decoder) for the zero-Python, CPU/edge FunASR llama.cpp runtime — the accuracy leader (LLM decoder), single C++ binary.

LLM quantization (pick by size vs accuracy)

The Fun-ASR-Nano LLM (Qwen3-0.6B) ships in three tiers — all within 0.1% CER (184-file micro-CER). Pair any with funasr-encoder-f16.gguf (470 MB).

LLM filesizeCER ↓speed
qwen3-0.6b-q4km.gguf484 MB8.35%6.1×
qwen3-0.6b-q5km.gguf551 MB8.25%5.7×
qwen3-0.6b-q8_0.gguf805 MB8.30%6.0×

Recommended: q4_K_M (smallest) or q5_K_M (best).

Get it running (no Python, no build)

These are GGUF weights for the FunASR llama.cpp runtime — a whisper.cpp-style, single self-contained binary for CPU / edge. Grab a prebuilt binary, then fetch this model and run:

bash download-funasr-model.sh nano ./gguf
llama-funasr-cli --enc ./gguf/funasr-encoder-f16.gguf -m ./gguf/qwen3-0.6b-q8_0.gguf --vad ./gguf/fsmn-vad.gguf -a audio.wav

Usage (needs both the encoder and the LLM gguf)

llama-funasr-cli --enc funasr-encoder-f16.gguf -m qwen3-0.6b-q8_0.gguf -a audio.wav --vad fsmn-vad.gguf

On CPU: 8.30 % CER on the 184-clip Mandarin benchmark (vs whisper.cpp 22–31 %).
