• highreadme#1

  Strengthen README's opening to highlight competitive speed advantage and TensorRT

  Why:

  CURRENT

  WhisperS2T is an optimized lightning-fast open-sourced **Speech-to-Text** (ASR) pipeline. It is tailored for the whisper model to provide faster whisper transcription. It's designed to be exceptionally fast than other implementation, boasting a **2.3X speed improvement over WhisperX and a 3X speed boost compared to HuggingFace Pipeline with FlashAttention 2 (Insanely Fast Whisper)**. Moreover, it includes several heuristics to enhance transcription accuracy.

  WhisperS2T is the **fastest open-source Speech-to-Text (ASR) pipeline** for the OpenAI Whisper model, engineered for production-grade performance. It significantly accelerates Whisper transcription, boasting a **2.3X speed improvement over WhisperX** and a **3X speed boost compared to HuggingFace Pipeline with FlashAttention 2 (Insanely Fast Whisper)**. Leveraging multiple inference engines, including **TensorRT-LLM**, WhisperS2T provides an optimized solution for efficient, high-accuracy transcription of large audio files.
