Soniox API
Power wearable apps with fast, accurate speech recognition
Give wearable apps a voice. Transcribe and translate speech live from smartwatches, glasses, earbuds, or pins. Build real-time voice interfaces for note-taking, accessibility, translation, and ambient logging. From watches to glasses, give your wearable the ability to listen and respond like a human being.
Helping startups and enterprises ship real world voice apps
For wearables that understand real speech, not just commands
Capture spontaneous moments
Stream audio from pins, watches, or pendants. Ideal for hands-free journaling, voice notes, or memory tools on the go.
Display real-time subtitles in the real world
Add captions or translations to smart glasses and displays. Help users follow live conversations and navigate across languages.
Understand conversations, not just keywords
Soniox processes fast, overlapping speech so your glasses, pins, or earbuds can follow real dialogue, not just react to commands.
Transcribe live, privately, right on the device
Process speech in real-time with no batching or cloud delays. Great for secure, low-power wearables where privacy and latency matter.
Turn voice into your wearable's most powerful feature
Turn every day speech into real-time actions.
Speak and instantly open apps, save notes, send messages, or translate speech. All without wake words, waiting, or hand-tuned prompts.
Connect across languages, hands-free.
Automatically translate speech on the fly in 60+ languages. Ideal for travelers, accessibility, or global users.
Power voice experiences that feel personal.
Soniox adapts to speakers, context, and language in real-time, so your wearable responds like a human, not like a script.
Make every wearable interaction feel instant.
Stream transcription, translation, and speaker logic in real-time for a seamless user experience. Lightweight enough for wearables, fast enough for anything.
Secure by design, ready for production.
