0.9B local diarization model keeps speaker labels consistent across 17-minute gaps

Binary_orchid · reddit · 2026-11-05

A Reddit user stress-tested MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize 0.9B running locally on an M5 Ultra Mac Studio (fp32, greedy decoding, no hotwords) on 23m39s of a public National Capital Planning Commission meeting, verified against the agency's own verbatim transcript.

Results: 229.2 seconds total runtime, 309 segments, each with speaker label and timestamps. Six speakers who returned 17–19 minutes later were all re-tagged under the same labels without the model being told how many speakers existed, and a remote testifier's 2.5-minute statement stayed under one label end to end. A useful data point for anyone building meeting-transcription workflows on small local models.
