In recent years, the enhanced capabilities of ASR models and the emergence of multi-dialect datasets have increasingly pushed Arabic ASR model development toward an all-dialect-in-one direction. This trend highlights the need for benchmarking studies that evaluate model performance in a multi-dialect setting, providing the community with insights into models' generalization capabilities.

In this paper, we introduce Open Universal Arabic ASR Leaderboard, a continuous benchmark project for open-source universal Arabic ASR models across various multi-dialect datasets. We also provide a comprehensive analysis of the model's robustness, speaker adaptation, inference efficiency, and memory consumption. This work aims to offer the Arabic ASR community a reference for models' general performance and also establish a common evaluation framework for multi-dialectal Arabic ASR models.
