Trusted by

Production-ready English to Kazakh translation API

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

English (Indo-European > Germanic > West Germanic) and Kazakh (Turkic > Kipchak) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

English is written in Latin and Kazakh in Cyrillic, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Kazakh text.
