Computer-Aided Translation

CAT translation: in more detail

CAT stands for computer-aided translation and refers to the process of using computer software to aid human translators in their work.

For clarity, CAT differs from Wolfestone’s machine translation and is a set of tools designed to support professional linguists – complementing their skills and expertise.

Key features of CAT include:

Translation memory (TM): Translation memory stores previously translated texts in a database and matches it with any future translations, saving time and costs.

Translation glossaries: CAT allows Wolfestone to craft and manage translation glossaries for each client. This ensures sector terminology and brand language is translated consistently throughout a project.

Quality assurance checks: Our CAT translation comes with a built-in quality assurance check to detect common translation errors or inconsistent terminology.

Integration with our translation management system: Wolfestone’s CAT integrates with our translation management system, which allows our experienced project managers to manage projects, assign tasks, track progress and simplify the entire process.

The benefits of computer-aided translation:

Boost productivity: We translate faster and smarter with glossaries, terminology management and machine translation integration. More languages, less time.

Ensure consistency: We maintain your brand voice and messaging across all languages with a centralised terminology database.

Reduce costs: We leverage translation memory and optional AI translation to optimise your budget. Invest in quality where it matters most while reaching wider markets.

Improve quality: We eliminate errors and maintain accuracy with spell checks, quality assurance tools and integrated glossaries. Delivering flawless translations that reflect your organisation’s professionalism and authority.
