Welsh speech recognition for production voice apps
Welsh is spoken by more than 900 thousand people in United Kingdom and around the world. If your voice agent, dictation app, or meeting notetaker serves them, speech-to-text has to handle Welsh the way people actually speak it: regional accents, speakers who switch to English mid-sentence, and names, numbers, and IDs that have to come out exactly right.
Soniox STT transcribes Welsh with native-speaker accuracy in real time over a WebSocket or asynchronously from recorded files, through one multilingual API built for 60+ languages. It follows speakers into other languages, labels who said what, and returns timestamps. Transcription biasing toward Welsh is available through the language hints option.
Welsh native-speaker accuracy
Accurate Welsh 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.”
