- NVIDIA Magpie TTS locally: German speech output as a microservice
The speech recognition is in place: with Parakeet (Part 2) and Canary (Part 3) I covered the input direction, speech to text, natively on NVIDIA. Now comes the opposite direction, the voice output. In this post I run NVIDIA Magpie TTS as a local NIM and have German text read aloud naturally. This is the… Read more: NVIDIA Magpie TTS locally: German speech output as a microservice - NVIDIA Canary locally: multilingual speech recognition and translation as a NIM
In Part 2 I set up Parakeet as a streaming-capable ASR NIM for German and ran it as a live service with low latency. In this post I take on the sister model: NVIDIA Canary as a NIM. Canary does not shine at latency but at accuracy, and it can do something Parakeet cannot: translate.… Read more: NVIDIA Canary locally: multilingual speech recognition and translation as a NIM - NVIDIA NIM locally: running German speech recognition as a microservice
In my last post I ran NVIDIA Nemotron ASR Streaming directly with NeMo locally. That was the “bare” route via the framework. In this post I go one step further and dive into NVIDIA NIM. NIM stands for NVIDIA Inference Microservices, the microservice variant NVIDIA uses to ship its models as ready-made, optimized containers. The… Read more: NVIDIA NIM locally: running German speech recognition as a microservice - Install NVIDIA Nemotron ASR Streaming Locally – Step-by-Step Guide
Real-time speech recognition is one of the building blocks I absolutely want to self-host for sovereign voice agents. My vision is always to run everything locally – without a cloud API, without my audio recording ever leaving my network. With the model updated in March 2026, NVIDIA Nemotron ASR Streaming (0.6B), there is now a… Read more: Install NVIDIA Nemotron ASR Streaming Locally – Step-by-Step Guide - Hermes Agent as a Native Desktop App on Windows
Nous Research has given its open-source Hermes Agent something with the “Surface Release” (version 0.16.0, June 2026) that I had been waiting for a long time: a true native desktop app for macOS, Linux, and Windows. Until now, Hermes Agent was a command-line and gateway tool. But with the new release, there is now a… Read more: Hermes Agent as a Native Desktop App on Windows
