Trusted by

Production-ready Croatian to Serbian translation API

Real Croatian speech includes accents, regional dialects, code switching, and domain-specific vocabulary. Soniox recognizes it in a single model and streams Serbian while the speaker is still talking.

Croatian and Serbian both belong to the Indo-European > Slavic > South Slavic family, so cognates and shared structure carry over cleanly into the translated Serbian output.

Croatian is written in Latin and Serbian in Cyrillic, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Serbian text.

Croatian and Serbian through a single stream
