Trusted by teams building global voice products

Production-ready Russian to Thai translation API

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

Russian (Indo-European > Slavic > East Slavic) and Thai (Kra-Dai > Tai) 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 Thai in Thai, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Thai text.

Russian and Thai through a single stream

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

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