How licensing works
- 01
Tell us your hardware. Target chipset, task (transcription, affect, or both), and expected fleet size. A person replies within one business day.
- 02
Free evaluation build. A compiled build for your target device under a time-boxed license — no card, no commitment. Accuracy and latency are measured on your own audio, on your own silicon.
- 03
License per device. If the numbers hold, production is a flat annual per-device rate with model updates included. Custom builds for your footprint and task are scoped separately.
Free evaluation. No card, no commitment.
Why a lab, not a model zoo
The model family
oruk trains its own speech models. On speech-emotion-bench — 64,384 held-out clips, one identical scoring pipeline across 64 systems — the hosted family reaches 77.6% accuracy (trained in-distribution; protocol and caveats on the methodology page). On-device builds are compressed from the same family and validated against your acceptance criteria during evaluation.
The alternative
Many free runtimes are designed around transcript-only prototypes. An evaluated commercial program can add acoustic emotion and speaking-style outputs, tuning for your microphone channel and acoustics, acceptance criteria on your hardware, and explicit support and survival terms.
Free evaluation. No card, no commitment.
Exactly what you are buying
The limits below are stated here so you do not discover them after integrating.
- English only
- Models process English speech. No production multilingual support today.
- Specs are measured, not quoted
- We do not publish generic size, memory, power, or latency figures. Those depend on your chipset and task, and are established during evaluation on your hardware.
- Benchmark numbers are the cloud family
- The 77.6% speech-emotion-bench result below was measured on the hosted model family with one open pipeline (methodology, including the in-distribution training caveat). Compressed on-device variants are validated against your acceptance criteria during evaluation.
- What emotion scores are — and are not
- Calibrated acoustic signals about how speech sounds — not intent, truth, medical, employment, or psychological judgments. See responsible use.
- Data and training
- On-device inference means we never see your audio at all. Across the whole product line, oruk never trains on customer content.
- Prefer hosted?
- The hosted model family runs behind a synchronous REST API from $0.0045 per audio minute with a $50 trial credit — the fastest way to validate accuracy before committing to a hardware evaluation. See the cloud API.

Prove it on your silicon
Send your target hardware, task, and expected fleet size. You get a compiled evaluation build and measured numbers on your own audio — then decide.
