World’s most accurate Italian speech-to-text
The world’s most accurate real-time speech-to-text API for Italian, powering voice agents, live systems, and applications across 60+ languages.
Trusted by teams building global voice products
Unmatched accuracy in Italian and 60+ languages
Italian is spoken by over 65 million people worldwide — across Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, Switzerland, and beyond. For years, Italian speech-to-text has fallen short, failing at fundamentals like accurate and reliable recognition, multiple languages, and alphanumerics. It converted Italian audio into words, but the words lacked meaning and context.
Soniox reimagined everything Italian speech-to-text got wrong. You can speak naturally, switch languages mid-sentence, spell out codes and names, or ask for instant Italian translation, all in real-time. Soniox doesn’t just transcribe Italian speech – it understands it.
Italian native-speaker accuracy
Accurate Italian speech recognition across accents, dialects, and real-world conversational speech.
“We tried a dozen speech-to-text and translation services. Soniox is the best, so that's what we use.”
Cayden Pierce, CEO/CTO at MentraAutomatically detect and switch languages with Italian
Soniox identifies the language automatically and follows changes between Italian and other languages as they happen, even within the same sentence.
