About
Understand the world
Soniox's mission is to develop AI that understands the world around us.
Soniox, initially focused on speech AI, introduced the world's first unsupervised learning approach for speech recognition in 2021. This innovation was essential to overcome the limitations that previously hindered speech system performance. Today, Soniox's speech recognition AI achieves the highest level of accuracy in the industry for the major eight languages.
In 2023, Soniox transitioned from speech AI to general AI, leveraging its vast proprietary datasets and unique expertise in unsupervised learning and training neural networks.
