Omi Med STT v1 MLX q8
Apple Silicon q8 export of Omi Med STT v1.
This is the default Mac artifact used by the omi-med-stt CLI. It is much smaller than the full MLX export and keeps very similar benchmark quality.
Quickstart
pip install -U "omi-med-stt[mlx]"
omi-med-stt audio.wavExplicit selection:
omi-med-stt audio.wav --runtime mlx --model omi-health/omi-med-stt-v1-mlx-q8Evaluation
The public weights are unchanged. These September 2026 results come from the current documented runtime recipes on the same frozen 1,513-clip, 7.18-hour medical benchmark and scorer. No dictionary, custom vocabulary, contextual bias, reference-aware selection, or transcript correction was used.
Lower is better for the error rates; higher is better for medical recall. MLX q8 remains the Mac default because it combines the strongest canonical M-WER in the runtime matrix with a 0.94 GB artifact and bounded memory use.
Compared with the open-model rows on Omi's standing 30-system board, MLX q8 has the lowest observed WER and the second-lowest observed M-WER. These are positions in this benchmark draw, not a universal ranking.
The previous model-card figures were produced by an older runtime/scorer path. The numbers above supersede them as runtime results; the q8 weights did not change.
Compatibility
This is not a drop-in parakeet-mlx checkpoint. Omi Med STT v1 includes a medical adapter, and the supported Mac path is the omi-med-stt CLI.

Safety
Omi Med STT v1 is speech-to-text only. It is not a diagnostic, triage, prescribing, or clinical decision model, and it is not clinically validated. Transcripts must be reviewed before any clinical use.
