Shush is an app that deploys a WhisperV3 model with Flash Attention v2 on Modal and makes requests to it via a NextJS app. The essential goal of this app is to provide a full-stack demo to those interested in running high-performance models and reliable APIs on demand with auto-scaling.

This is a demo app built with Next.js (Frontend) + Modal (Backend).

Set Up

Visit modal.com and create a free account. Then follow the instructions to install the Modal python package and authenticate in your CLI.

Deploy backend

We will be using Modal to deploy and serve WhisperV3, an audio transcription model built by OpenAI.

Execute the following commands in your terminal:

cd modal
modal deploy shush.py

This is should give you a url in the form: https://[ORG_NAME]--[STUB_NAME]-entrypoint.modal.run

Deploy Frontend

Now let's run the NextJS app. After going back to the root of the repo, execute the following commands:

cd shush

Now create a .env file and add the url we got from Modal (view .env.example for reference)

Then we can just do:

bun i
bun run dev

And that's it! Open http://localhost:3000/ in your browser and test the app + model out!
