Deepgram Nova-2
No estimate
No hardware requirements for this model
The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.
On record
Full specification
Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

What the numbers mean
Background
Deepgram Nova-2 was published by Deepgram, in the country recorded as United States of America, during September 2023. It comes out of an organisation categorised as industry.
It works in the domain of Speech, and is recorded as performing the task of speech recognition (ASR).
This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.
Answers
Deepgram Nova-2 — common questions
Deepgram Nova-2— who created it?
It was published by Deepgram, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as industry.
Deepgram Nova-2— when was it released?
It was published in September 2023. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
Deepgram Nova-2— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Speech, and is recorded as handling the task of speech recognition (ASR). These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
Deepgram Nova-2— what GPU do I need to run it?
None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.
Deepgram Nova-2— is it open source?
No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
Deepgram Nova-2— how many parameters does it have?
No parameter count has been published for it, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
