Why Tagalog matters

86M+

people speak Tagalog

Tagalog is the basis of Filipino, the national language of the Philippines, and is spoken as a first or second language across the country. Filipinos working abroad carry it into households from the Gulf to North America.

Reach Tagalog speakers wherever they are

Supporting Tagalog lets you serve customers across Metro Manila and Luzon, and reach Filipino communities in the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE without building separate products.

Tagalog with a side of English (“Taglish”)? Handled.

People rarely stick to one language. Gladia follows Tagalog speakers when they switch mid-sentence, so your transcripts stay clean.

Use cases

What teams build with Tagalog transcription

Whatever you're building, Tagalog shouldn't be the thing that slows it down.

Meeting assistants

Meetings in Manila offices flow between Tagalog and English mid-sentence, so notes need to keep Taglish intact.

Meeting assistants →

Contact centers (CCaaS)

Philippine telcos, banks, and e-wallets like GCash field local support calls in Tagalog, at volumes QA teams can't review manually.

CCaaS →

Voice agents

Tagalog builds verbs with infixes like -um- and -in-, so voice agents need to catch meaning tucked inside the middle of a word.

Voice agents →

Media & content

Teleseryes from ABS-CBN and GMA and a busy vlogger scene reach Filipinos at home and abroad, all looking for subtitles.
