The short answer is no, contract translation can't be fully automated. There are many nuances in contracts that can only be captured by a human translator with legal expertise. However, there are certain aspects of contracts that can be automated. Repetitive sections of a contract such as the headers, footers, and boilerplate text, can be processed using machine translation with some post-editing by a human linguist. The translation of standard clauses that are found in many contracts. These clauses can be translated using a translation memory (TM). In short, we don't recommend automating the translation of legal agreements. software programs cannot replace the need for human translators. Only native speakers are able to provide a higher level of accuracy and customer service, which is why they are still your best option.
