Common Questions

Everything you need to know about
AI translation

How does AI translation work in Sonix?

Sonix uses advanced neural machine translation to convert your transcripts into 54+ languages. After transcribing your audio, simply select your target language and Sonix translates the entire transcript while preserving timestamps, speaker labels, and formatting. The translation happens in seconds, and you can edit the results in our browser-based editor.

How accurate is Sonix translation?

Sonix uses state-of-the-art AI translation models that deliver professional-quality results for most content types. Translation accuracy varies by language pair and content complexity. For critical translations, we recommend using the side-by-side comparison feature to review and polish the output. The more context in your transcript, the better the translation quality.

What languages does Sonix translate to and from?

Sonix supports translation between 54+ languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, and many more. You can translate from any supported language to any other supported language, enabling truly global content distribution.

Can I edit translations after they're created?

Yes. Sonix provides a full-featured translation editor where you can modify any translated text. The editor shows your translation synchronized with the original audio, so you can verify accuracy by listening. You can also use side-by-side comparison to view the original and translation together while making edits.

How do I create subtitles in multiple languages?

After translating your transcript, export subtitles in any language you've translated to. Sonix generates properly formatted SRT or VTT files for each language. You can customize subtitle timing, line length, and styling before export. This makes it easy to add multilingual subtitles to videos on YouTube, Vimeo, or any platform.

Is AI translation better than human translation?

AI translation offers significant advantages in speed and cost—translations complete in seconds rather than days, at a fraction of the price. For most business content like meetings, interviews, and presentations, AI translation provides excellent quality. For content requiring cultural nuance, legal precision, or creative adaptation, you may want to review and polish the AI output or use professional human translators for final refinement.

It really accelerated my work and I was amazed by the accuracy, especially given that the video featured only non-native speakers.
