Worth noticing
Its 33.6-minute baseline spans clean speech, restaurant noise, multilingual video calls, and meetings; commercial vendor tests have not yet run.

Field notes

The current benchmark runs Whisper medium.en against openly licensed recordings with human transcripts, then scores errors with published code. Its 33.6 minutes cover clean read speech, restaurant noise, relaxed video calls between speakers of different first languages, and four-person meetings. The site says no commercial vendors could be tested in the first round, so the published results are a baseline rather than a vendor ranking.
