Sanas, the leading Speech AI platform, has announced a major expansion of its capabilities with the launch of Real-Time Language Translation and a significant upgrade to its Speech Enhancement technology. Founded at Stanford’s Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Sanas has transitioned from a specialized accent-matching tool into a comprehensive speech infrastructure ecosystem. The platform currently powers millions of conversations across 100 countries for global leaders in healthcare, financial services, and retail, including UnitedHealth Group, Vanguard, and Robinhood.
Sanas introduces real-time, speech-to-speech translation for over 13 languages.
Speech Enhancement technology now reconstructs low-fidelity audio into ultra-fidelity speech.
The platform operates with on-device AI processing to ensure minimal latency.
Sanas has grown from $0 to $60M in ARR since 2023, targeting $120M.
Security features include HITRUST i1 certification and containerized deployment.
The system preserves vocal identity, tone, and intent during live translation.

Modern enterprise operations are frequently hindered by accent barriers, language fragmentation, and inconsistent audio quality. Sanas addresses these systemic challenges by building a real-time speech infrastructure layer that sits between humans, machines, and customers. Unlike traditional tools that focus solely on noise cancellation, Sanas’ new Speech Enhancement reconstructs the foreground of a conversation, restoring clarity and expression while reducing the need for expensive hardware.
"Everyone deserves to be understood. We did not start Sanas to change how people speak. We started Sanas to remove barriers so communication can happen clearly and naturally," said Sharath Keshava Narayana, CEO and Co-founder of Sanas. "We are building the real-time speech infrastructure layer that enterprises will rely on for every interaction."
The new Real-Time Language Translation capability enables seamless speech-to-speech communication with negligible latency. The system automatically detects the speaker's language and translates it while preserving their unique vocal identity and emotional intent. This allows, for example, a French speaker and an English listener to converse naturally in their native tongues in real time.
To meet the rigorous demands of highly regulated industries, Sanas has implemented a secure-by-design architecture. The platform supports on-device and self-hosted deployment options, ensuring data sovereignty and compliance without relying on cloud storage. Sanas does not monitor or store call data, reinforcing its commitment to enterprise-grade privacy and trust.
"These innovations bring us closer to a world where language, accent and audio quality are no longer barriers to understanding," said Shawn Zhang, CTO and Co-founder of Sanas. "More than just translating words, we're preserving meaning, emotion and identity."
