AI translation service

What is AI translation?

AI language translation, also referred to as machine translation (MT), automated translation or instant translation, is essentially a substitution of words from one language to another. It works on recognition of phrases and restructures your text according to the rules of the new language. It is beneficial for large projects where there are a lot of repetitions of words and phrases.

How you could benefit from using AI translation services

There are a multitude of projects and uses which AI translation is perfect for.

• Translating content quickly to get a general understanding of information in another language – preferably to be used internally rather than externally in the organisation, for example employee handbooks or training manuals.
• Increasing productivity of human translators by providing a first-pass translation that can be quickly edited by a human in a process called post-editing, and productivity can be increased by up to 6,000 words per day. This makes this type of translation incredibly useful for those on tight schedules looking for quick turnaround times.
• Translating instant, volume-heavy content such as chat, email or customer support communications.
• Content that may be useful in another language, but where there is insufficient budget or the business case is not yet strong enough to warrant investing in full human translation.

Every Wolfestone client has their own bespoke engine, meaning content will never be shared in other clients' translations, guaranteeing the highest confidentiality of your materials.

What is Translation Memory?

Translation Memory (TM) can dramatically improve the consistency, turnaround time and cost-saving of your AI translation project. In short, Translation Memory stores your source text in the original language and its corresponding target text, AKA the ‘translated’ text. When starting a new project, any previously or similarly-translated content is returned by the Translation Memory as a ‘match’ or close match.

Every additional project can attract savings of 30%+. Learn more on our Technology page.

What is Post-editing (MTPE)?

MTPE (Machine Translation Post Editing) is the ideal solution for a speedy translation turnaround with human-guaranteed accuracy.

A human linguist reviews the content produced by our AI-powered machine and edits any unnatural-sounding elements or errors, such as syntax, grammar and terminology, to ensure the highest-quality output. This is useful when the text includes cultural specific phrases such as idioms where the meaning may otherwise be lost.
