Persian to Arabic speech translation API

Stream Persian (فارسی) speech and get Arabic (العربية) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes fa to ar, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by

Production-ready Persian to Arabic translation API

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

Persian (Indo-European > Iranian > Western Iranian) and Arabic (Afro-Asiatic > Semitic > Central Semitic) 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.

Persian and Arabic through a single stream

Persian to Arabic translation is built on top of Soniox Speech-to-Text API. Every spoken word is transcribed, and Arabic translation streams mid-sentence in the same labeled token stream.

Turn it on by adding a translation block with source_language: "fa" and target_language: "ar". It runs on the same WebSocket and the same model, with no extra round trip.
