Polish to Slovak speech translation API

Stream Polish (Polski) speech and get Slovak (Slovenčina) back in real time. One WebSocket, ISO codes pl to sk, and ultra-low latency for voice agents and live apps.

Trusted by

Production-ready Polish to Slovak translation API

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

Polish and Slovak both belong to the Indo-European > Slavic > West Slavic family, so cognates and shared structure carry over cleanly into the translated Slovak output.

Soniox preserves formatting in the translated transcript, including names, numbers, addresses, IDs, and domain-specific terms.

Polish and Slovak through a single stream

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

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