Trusted by teams building global voice products

Production-ready Russian to Telugu translation API

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

Russian (Indo-European > Slavic > East Slavic) and Telugu (Dravidian > South-Central Dravidian) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

Russian is written in Cyrillic and Telugu in Telugu, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Telugu text.
