Production-ready Thai to Urdu translation API

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

Thai (Kra-Dai > Tai) and Urdu (Indo-European > Indo-Aryan > Central) come from different language families, so word order and morphology differ. Soniox reorders meaning in-stream instead of word by word.

Thai is written in Thai and Urdu in Arabic, so Soniox emits correctly scripted Urdu text. Right-to-left output is handled directly in the token stream.

Real-time Thai to Urdu translation

Soniox streams the Thai transcript and the Urdu translation on the same connection, word by word, so meaning lands while the speaker is still talking.
