Soniox for Europe
Voice AI built for EU residency, EU languages, and EU compliance
Real-time speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and translation processed inside the EU, with native-speaker accuracy across EU languages, ready to ship in the EU from day one.
What’s different about Soniox in Europe
Three things European teams ask about before they ship
Most voice AI vendors tick one of the boxes below. Soniox covers all three, with the same model, the same API, and the same prices.
01 / Sovereign Cloud
Audio and transcripts stay in EU
Soniox Sovereign Cloud runs the same model in-region. By requesting the EU region all project data is processed within EU jurisdiction without cross-border hops and no fallback to a US endpoint.
02 / EU AI Act ready
EU compliance by default
GDPR, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, SOC 2 Type 2, HIPAA certified with technical and data-governance documentation your team needs to satisfy regulators, auditors, and your own legal review.
03 / EU language accuracy
Verifiable language accuracy
Listing a language is not the same as transcribing it well. Soniox is benchmarked on real EU audio against every major provider, and we publish word error rate per language. For all supported languages.
01 / Sovereign Cloud
Pick the EU region. Everything else stays the same.
Same model. Same accuracy. Same streaming behavior. The only thing that changes is where your data lives.
- check_circleAudio and transcripts remain in the EU for both processing and storage.
- check_circleSingle API and integration path. No separate model, SDK, or billing flow.
- check_circleRegion is set per project, so multi-market products can route audio cleanly.
