NeMo is a multimodal AI framework and toolkit designed for the development, training, and scaling of large language models, generative AI systems, and speech-based models. It functions as an automatic speech recognition toolkit, a text-to-speech engine, and a framework for building models that process and generate combinations of text, image, and audio data.
The project serves as a conversational AI orchestrator capable of managing real-time, interruptible voice interactions. It provides specialized workflows for speech translation, converting spoken audio from one language into text or speech in another.
The platform covers a broad range of AI model development capabilities, including the training of generative and speech models. Its operational surface includes automatic speech recognition, text-to-speech synthesis, and the creation of multimodal pipelines.
