Build with API

German to Danish speech translation API

Stream German (Deutsch) speech and get Danish (Dansk) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes de to da, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by teams building global voice products

Production-ready German to Danish translation API

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

German (Indo-European > Germanic > West Germanic) and Danish (Indo-European > Germanic > North Germanic) 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.
