Recent provider-route uptime spans not enough data across 1 route and 1 provider. Price comes from the current Credits catalog. Speed and uptime come from routed probes rather than vendor claims.

Providers serving this model

Audio requests use the listed model and provider. These routes do not silently switch models or providers.

Trust boundary: TR router attestation verifies the TrustedRouter gateway only. Provider policy separately describes the upstream model host's retention, confidential compute, and E2EE posture. Company country is separate from inference location. Weight formats are source-backed declarations, not per-request proofs.

Provider	Input	Cached input	Output	Weight format	Provider policy	Company / inference location	Measured speed
Privatemodeprivatemode	$0.017359/audio minute	Not applicable	Included	Unknown	Confidential ZDR Retention details Requests and responses are encrypted between TrustedRouter's enclave and release-pinned Privatemode workloads after attestation verification. Verification failures reject the request; there is no plaintext fallback. Privatemode explicitly states that prompts and responses are not stored after a request completes and are not used for training. Transient inference state may remain in a salt-isolated, in-memory prompt cache inside confidential workers until eviction. Operational metadata is retained for up to 90 days; per-key token usage is retained permanently for billing. Cache-routing metadata is visible to the provider edge. ZDR describes prompt/output retention, not metadata. Provider policy source	Operator country: DE Location details Headquarters / registered office: Not verified. Inference: EU-hosted inference, provider-declared; country and individual worker location unspecified. Privatemode declares EU hosting for its inference service. This does not establish an individual worker's country. Region pinning through TR: Not supported by the current TrustedRouter integration. Reviewed 2026-09-27.

Speed is the median (p50) from TR's recent measured requests for this exact model and provider, refreshed from the cached leaderboard. At least two timing samples are required; workload and network conditions affect results. Performance details

Questions

What model ID should I use for Whisper Large V3?

Use openai/whisper-large-v3 as the model field with the TrustedRouter OpenAI-compatible API. Credits routing and provider fallback happen behind that model ID.

Which providers serve Whisper Large V3?

TrustedRouter currently lists Privatemode for Whisper Large V3. Provider availability and routing eligibility can change as catalog and health data update.

How much does Whisper Large V3 cost through TrustedRouter?

The current Credits price is $0.017359/audio minute. Output is included; these are audio prices, not text-token prices.

How do I require zero data retention for Whisper Large V3?

Set provider.min_privacy to zdr on the request. TrustedRouter considers only routes with a recorded zero-data-retention posture and fails closed if no eligible route remains.
