It provides both synchronous and asynchronous clients that wrap REST and WebSocket endpoints for speech-to-text transcription, text-to-speech synthesis, voice cloning, and usage/cost reporting. The SDK handles authentication via API key, file uploads, model selection, and typed request/response objects through pydantic.\n\nTypical workflows include transcribing audio files end-to-end in a single call, streaming realtime speech recognition or synthesis over WebSocket, cloning voices from reference audio for custom TTS, and querying daily spend and per-request logs. The package is actively maintained, supports Python 3.10 through 3.14, and has minimal dependencies (httpx, pydantic, websockets).","worth_installing":"Yes. The SDK is actively maintained, has low install friction, no known vulnerabilities, and a permissive license. Install it if you need to integrate Soniox's STT or TTS APIs into a Python application. Avoid Python 3.13.6 specifically due to a documented ssl regression; any other 3.10\u20133.14 version is safe."},"id":"soniox","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/soniox","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/soniox.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/soniox/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-11","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"soniox","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"The official Python SDK for the Soniox API (STT, REST)"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":296113,"position":7903,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.9.0"}
