Built for the hardest parts of Japanese speech

Japanese is spoken by over 125 million people worldwide primarily in Japan, with speakers around the world. Production text-to-speech for Japanese still breaks on the details that matter most: phone numbers get scrambled, names are mispronounced, and mixed-language text falls apart.

Soniox TTS handles the real-world patterns that other systems get wrong, delivering high-fidelity Japanese speech with robust pronunciation, precise rendering of alphanumerics, natural language switching, and ultra-low-latency streaming.
