Introducing Klang Pianissimo for Danish
Pianissimo.
The most accurate Danish speech-to-text.
Klang Pianissimo is an open speech-to-text model for Danish, fine-tuned from NVIDIA’s Parakeet v3. It sets a new standard for Danish, with the highest accuracy on real, everyday speech.
Danish speech-to-text model trained on real speech.
Pianissimo makes fewer errors on real Danish speech than any other model we tested, open or closed: 10% fewer than Edda, 11% fewer than Saga and 4% fewer than ElevenLabs Scribe v2.

An open ecosystem
for Nordic speech.
Most large speech models are trained mainly on English, and the Nordic languages fall behind. We think that's best solved together, in the open. That's why Pianissimo is released with open weights, so anyone can build on it and share what they make. This is our way of contributing to the Nordic speech ecosystem.
