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

Live Vietnamese translation: written and spoken

Vietnamese speech-to-text translation
Translate live Vietnamese into written text with the Soniox STT API. Enable real-time translation with a config change. Soniox streams the Vietnamese transcript and translated text as speech happens.
Use it for Vietnamese captions, subtitles, meeting translation, agent assist, accessibility tools, and multilingual transcription.

Vietnamese speech-to-speech translation
Build full spoken Vietnamese translation by combining Soniox STT and Soniox TTS. Soniox recognizes Vietnamese, translates it in real time, and speaks the output in the target language with low latency.
Use it for live Vietnamese interpreters, bilingual voice agents, travel assistants, customer support, and real-time multilingual communication.
One-way or two-way Vietnamese translation
One-way translates all speech into a single target language. Two-way keeps a bilingual conversation flowing between Vietnamese and another language, so each side speaks naturally and hears the other in their own.

One-way translation
Translate live speech to or from Vietnamese into a single target language. Everyone in the conversation sees the same translated stream.
Ideal for live captions, multilingual meetings, broadcasts, lectures, customer calls, and products where many speakers need to be understood in one language.

Two-way translation
Translate between Vietnamese and another language for live bilingual conversation. Each side speaks naturally and hears the other in their own language.
Soniox supports real-time two-way translation between any two of 60+ supported languages.
Simple, usage-based pricing
Start translating live Vietnamese audio streams from ~$0.18/hour.
Translation is already built into Soniox Speech-to-Text API. When turned on, it adds about ~$0.06/hour in output token costs.
