Note:

Before your first call

An inference call needs an API key and a positive wallet balance. The first call to an idle model can answer 503 with a Retry-After header while it starts — wait, then retry. Full reference: the API docs.

How is Whisper Large v3 licensed?

Whisper Large v3 is served under the MIT licence. The upstream licence passes through to you: what you may do with the output is governed by it, not by us. The obligations we pass through are listed on model licences, and the model card itself is at its source.
