Mandarin Chinese is the official language of China and Taiwan and one of Singapore's four official languages. It anchors the world's second-largest economy and a huge share of global manufacturing, trade, and e-commerce.
Supporting Chinese lets you serve customers across mainland China, Taiwan, Singapore, and Malaysia, and reach Chinese-speaking communities from Vancouver to Sydney, without treating each market as a separate project.
People rarely stick to one language. Gladia follows Chinese speakers when they switch mid-sentence, so your transcripts stay clean.
Code-switchingUse cases
Whatever you're building, Chinese shouldn't be the thing that slows it down.
Teams in Shanghai, Taipei, and Singapore all speak Mandarin but with distinct accents and vocabulary, so notes need to keep every speaker intact.
Meeting assistants →Chinese e-commerce and logistics run on high-volume customer service, with peak shopping festivals pushing call loads far beyond what QA teams can review.
CCaaS →Mandarin is tonal and full of homophones, so voice agents need to tell similar-sounding words apart from context, not just sound.
Voice agents →Livestream shopping and short video are core to Chinese media, and creators need fast transcripts and subtitles to keep up with daily output.
Media →Supported languages
Being multilingual has been our priority since day one. Gladia supports 100 languages, with code-switching and automatic language detection integrated into all models by default.
