Trusted by teams building global voice products
Production-ready French to Italian translation API
Real French speech includes accents, regional dialects, code switching, and domain-specific vocabulary. Soniox recognizes it in a single model and streams Italian while the speaker is still talking.
French (Indo-European > Romance > Western Romance) and Italian (Indo-European > Romance > Italo-Dalmatian) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.
Soniox preserves formatting in the translated transcript, including names, numbers, addresses, IDs, and domain-specific terms.

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

About French and Italian
French has roughly 280,000,000 speakers across France, Democratic Republic of Congo, Canada, and Madagascar. Italian has roughly 65,000,000 speakers across Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, and Switzerland.
French was the international language of diplomacy and high culture from the 17th to the mid-20th century.
Standard Italian is based on the Tuscan dialect, largely due to the literary influence of Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio.
French and Italian are closely related languages, which helps Soniox keep tone and meaning consistent across the pair.
