Russian is an official language in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan, and one of the six official languages of the UN. It's the most spoken native language in Europe and a common second language across the former Soviet Union.
Supporting Russian lets you serve customers across Central Asia and the Caucasus, and reach Russian-speaking communities in Israel, Germany, and the Baltic states, with one language instead of a patchwork of local ones.
People rarely stick to one language. Gladia follows Russian speakers when they switch mid-sentence, so your transcripts stay clean.
Code-switchingUse cases
Whatever you're building, Russian shouldn't be the thing that slows it down.
Teams spread from Almaty to Tbilisi to Tashkent often default to Russian as their common working language, across very different regional accents.
Meeting assistants →Banks, telecoms, and public services in Latvia, Estonia, and Israel run Russian-language support for large Russian-speaking shares of their populations.
CCaaS →Russian nouns change form after numbers, so one ruble, two rubles, and five rubles all sound different, and voice agents must catch amounts correctly.
Voice agents →Make Russian 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.
