Surogate Speech is out 🐇 small open speech models for agents, the speech side of Surogate.

First language shipped is Romanian, and the numbers came out better than I expected: 5.69% WER on FLEURS with a 116M model. Canary 1B gets 5.95% on the same clips, Whisper large-v3 8.42%. Leaderboard runner, one RTX 5090.

What's in it:

🎧 jackrabbit-110m-ro: speech recognition, 2,500× real time on one GPU
⚡ jackrabbit-110m-ro-streaming: live, final text about 0.7 s after you stop talking
🗣️ amami-357m-ro: TTS with three voices, runs on a CPU

Serving is one line with our engine: surogate serve --stt surogate/jackrabbit-110m-ro

Transcripts for every clip are public if you want to rescore it.

Hey I've updated my Hugging Face text generation model search space B-Sides. I always wanted more from HF's model search, so I built one.

I went deeper than the model card, embedding the relevant .json and .py files so you can search for models with custom kernels or exotic imports and specific architecture shapes. You can narrow it down to quantization types and training stacks. If you want to search it and it's not available just make a community post and I would gladly make each query more detailed with an update.

So far over 428,440 text generation models are catalogued with more coming weekly.

On deck: Docker images

Anthropic gave me six months of Claude Max 20x through the Claude for Open Source program, granted based on my Hugging Face work. Thank you

Anthropic for supporting open source.

So far I've been pointing it at Markdown Minimap, an Obsidian plugin that adds a scrollable IDE-style minimap to your notes. This week I've been clearing a backlog of user-reported issues on it, with Claude often handling them end to end.

https://github.com/Nymbo/Markdown-Minimap — issues and PRs welcome.

most labs won't bother teaching a small model to write and think in real romanian. no invented words, no english leaking in mid-sentence, diacritics intact.

we did.

surogate 3.5 is out. 2B and 4B, apache 2.0. invented word-forms cut from 4 per 1k down to ~1.5, and it reasons in the language you prompt it in, every time.

intelligence should speak your language too.

the models:

surogate/Surogate-3.5-4B

surogate/Surogate-3.5-2B
