Trusted by teams building global voice products

Production-ready Urdu to Kazakh translation API

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

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

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