Icelandic is the national language of Iceland. Because global tech often skips small languages, the Icelandic government funds a national program to keep Icelandic usable in software, speech recognition, and voice apps.
Supporting Icelandic lets you serve customers across Iceland in their own language, where many companies have relied on English-only chatbots and support tools.
People rarely stick to one language. Gladia follows Icelandic speakers when they switch mid-sentence, so your transcripts stay clean.
Code-switchingUse cases
Whatever you're building, Icelandic shouldn't be the thing that slows it down.
Capture every Icelandic meeting, without anyone scrambling to take notes. Accurate transcripts, speaker labels, and timestamps.
Meeting assistants →Iceland's language technology program names company service centers as a core use for Icelandic speech recognition, so support calls are an obvious target.
CCaaS →Mainstream voice assistants rarely support Icelandic, which is why the government funded open Icelandic speech tools so local voice apps could exist.
Voice agents →Make Icelandic podcasts, videos, and broadcasts searchable and subtitled, and reach audiences in other languages through translation.
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.
Ship Icelandic voice features with an API built for messy, real-world conversations.
