Trusted by
Production-ready Chinese to Russian translation API
Real Chinese speech includes accents, regional dialects, code switching, and domain-specific vocabulary. Soniox recognizes it in a single model and streams Russian while the speaker is still talking.
Chinese (Sino-Tibetan > Sinitic) and Russian (Indo-European > Slavic > East Slavic) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.
Chinese is written in CJK and Russian in Cyrillic, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Russian text.
A breakthrough in real-time Chinese to Russian translation
Translate before the sentence ends
Russian meaning lands as Chinese is spoken, not after the caption catches up.
Directional zh to ru streaming
Set the source and target codes once. Both arrive in a single labeled token stream.
High quality Russian output
Same model across every language, including historically underserved ones.
Native-speaker Chinese STT accuracy
Accurate Russian translation starts with accurate Chinese recognition across accents and language switching.
Names, numbers, and domain terms
Preserved across the pair, including phone numbers, emails, and IDs.

}Chinese and Russian through a single stream
Chinese to Russian translation is built on top of Soniox Speech-to-Text API. Every spoken word is transcribed, and Russian translation streams mid-sentence in the same labeled token stream.
Turn it on by adding a translation block with source_language: "zh" and target_language: "ru". It runs on the same WebSocket and the same model, with no extra round trip.
