hama on-device NLP

Introduction

hama is a cross-platform G2P, phoneme ASR, and P2G runtime for Python and TypeScript.

Guiding principles

  • On-device. Inference runs locally in Python, Node/Bun, and the browser.

  • Plug-and-play. Packaged assets and consistent APIs make hama easy to drop in and run across environments.

  • Explainable. G2P and P2G return alignments, and ASR returns collapsed and frame-level token views plus per-phoneme time spans.

Supported languages

hama ships vocabularies for English, Korean, Chinese (simplified/traditional), Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish, and Thai. Adding a language means regenerating the vocab and .hama weight packages; see Architecture and Modalities for the workflow.
