Does SozAI transcribe Kazakh?

SozAI transcribes Kazakh audio and video into Cyrillic text with automatic speaker labels and word-level timestamps.

Recordings are processed in EU data centers and encrypted at rest, and every account gets 30 minutes a month without a card.

Workflow

## How to transcribe Kazakh audio

1. 01

   ### Add the recording

   Record straight into the app, upload a file up to 500 MB, or paste a YouTube link. SozAI reads m4a, mp3, wav, aac, mp4 and mov.
2. 02

   ### Set Kazakh, or let it detect

   Choose Kazakh, or leave detection on. Recordings that move between Kazakh and Russian stay in one transcript rather than being split.
3. 03

   ### Read, search and export

   The transcript arrives with speaker labels and word timestamps. Search it, ask it questions, generate a summary in Kazakh, or export SRT and VTT subtitles.

Field notes

## What makes Kazakh hard to transcribe

### The alphabet is changing underneath the language

Kazakh is in the middle of a long transition from Cyrillic to a Latin alphabet, and the Latin standard itself has been revised more than once. Written Kazakh from different years does not agree with itself. SozAI writes Cyrillic, which is still the form most documents, search engines and readers expect today.

### Kazakh-Russian code-switching is constant

In Almaty and Astana a single sentence can start in Kazakh and finish in Russian, and technical and administrative vocabulary is very often Russian. Systems that force one language either mistranscribe the Russian or drop it. Keeping both in one transcript, in order, is what makes the record match what was actually said.

### Less training data than the languages it sits between

Kazakh has roughly thirteen million speakers, orders of magnitude fewer than Russian or English, so there is far less public audio to learn from. In practice that shows up as higher sensitivity to microphone quality and background noise: a Kazakh recording made on a laptop mic will need more correction than an English one made the same way.

### Agglutination and vowel harmony

Like Turkish, Kazakh stacks suffixes onto roots and harmonises their vowels to the root. One written word can carry a full clause, and an error deep inside a suffix chain is easy to read past. Word-level timestamps are the practical fix — jump to the second, correct once.

Answers

## Kazakh transcription — your questions

Short answers you can quote. Longer ones live in the sections above.

Does the transcript come back in Cyrillic or Latin?

Cyrillic. Although Kazakh is transitioning to a Latin alphabet, Cyrillic remains the form most documents, keyboards and search engines expect today, and the Latin standard has been revised more than once. Russian and English fragments inside a Kazakh sentence keep their own script.

What happens with recordings that mix Kazakh and Russian?

They stay in a single transcript, with each fragment written in the language it was spoken in and in the order it was said. This is the normal case for business and government recordings in Kazakhstan, and splitting the file by language would make the record unusable.

How accurate is Kazakh transcription?

Accuracy is good on clear speech with a decent microphone and falls off faster than it would for English on noisy or distant audio, because there is far less public Kazakh training data. If Kazakh recordings matter to you, an external microphone is the single change that helps most.

Can it separate speakers in a Kazakh recording?

Yes. Diarization runs on the audio rather than the language, so each speaker gets a label and every turn a timestamp. For interviews and recorded meetings this is what makes the transcript usable as a record you can quote from.

How much does Kazakh transcription cost?

Every account gets 30 minutes per month free without a card. Beyond that SozAI is a flat monthly subscription with a shared pool of minutes, and the price is the same whichever language you transcribe. Current plans are listed on the pricing page.
