# Salt - Speech and Langauage transformer
Vikhr Salt is an advanced speech and language transformer model designed for seamless handling of Text-to-Speech (TTS) and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) tasks. Built upon a pre-trained large language model, Vikhr Salt extends its vocabulary to include new audio tokens, enabling it to process multimodal data effectively while leveraging the rich prior knowledge embedded in the model.
