Transcribe Armenian audio with WhisperAI
WhisperAI transcribes Armenian (Հայերեն) audio for the around 7 million speakers worldwide who use the language across Armenia, Artsakh, Russia, the United States (especially California), France, Lebanon and the global Armenian diaspora. Built on OpenAI Whisper and tuned for the realities of Armenian speech, the service produces publication-grade transcripts in Armenian alphabet (created by Mesrop Mashtots in the 5th century).

Eastern vs Western Armenian — two distinct standards
Armenian has two separate literary standards: Eastern Armenian (used in the Republic) and Western Armenian (used by the diaspora descended from Anatolian Armenians). They use the same alphabet but differ significantly in spelling conventions, pronunciation and vocabulary. Whisper handles both standards with native Armenian-script output.
Eastern Armenian and Western Armenian are both supported with native Armenian script.
