-For the best real-time accuracy, latency, and throughput, deploy the model with [NVIDIA Riva](#deployment-with-nvidia-riva), an accelerated speech AI SDK deployable on-prem, in all clouds, multi-cloud, hybrid, at the edge, and embedded.
+This model transcribes speech in lowercase English alphabet including spaces and apostrophes, and is trained on several thousand hours of English speech data.
+It is a non-autoregressive "large" variant of Conformer, with around 120 million parameters.
+See the [model architecture](#model-architecture) section and [NeMo documentation](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/nemo/user-guide/docs/en/main/asr/models.html#conformer-ctc) for complete architecture details.
+It is also compatible with NVIDIA Riva for [production-grade server deployments](#deployment-with-nvidia-riva). 
 
-## How to Use this Model

 ## Model Architecture
 
-Conformer-CTC model is a non-autoregressive variant of Conformer model [1] for Automatic Speech Recognition which uses CTC loss/decoding instead of Transducer. You may find more info on the detail of this model here: [Conformer-CTC Model](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/nemo/user-guide/docs/en/main/asr/models.html).
