DeepL Translator

DeepL Translator is a free neural machine translation service launched on August 28, 2017 by DeepL GmbH (Linguee), based in Cologne, Germany. developed.
It has been positively reported that it can translate with subtle nuances and is more accurate than Google Translate.
DeepL currently offers translations for the following 24 and 552 language pairs:
Portuguese, Chinese (Simplified), Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish Languages, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish.
Basically, the official languages ​​of the European Union member states are mainly supported, and the official languages ​​of the European Union member states are limited to Irish, Croatian, Luxembourg and Maltese, while the European Union Outside the region, it only supports Japanese, Chinese and Russian.
In addition, a two-step translation process via the English pivot has been proposed to approximate language equivalence between all these languages.
On March 19, 2020, a translation function between Japanese and Simplified Chinese was added.
Japanese and Chinese are secondary translations via English.
DeepL has no ads.
The company wants to make money by licensing a translation application programming interface.

The algorithm and source code are closed source and proprietary.
The service uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) trained in the Linguee database.
It is based on a neural network, but the details of the technology have not been revealed.
According to the developers, the service uses a newer and much improved neural network architecture to provide a more natural translation sound compared to competing services.
The translation is generated using a supercomputer that reaches 5.1 petaflops and is operated on hydropower in Iceland.
In general, CNN is a little better for long, cohesive word strings, but it has weaknesses compared to recurrent neural networks and is not currently used by competing services.
DeepL's weaknesses are compensated for by additional tricks, some of which are publicly known.
You can also translate Word documents (.docx format) and PowerPoint presentations (.pptx).
Footnotes, formatting, and embedded images are retained.
Portuguese and Russian were added to the DeepL Translator on December 5, 2018, and Chinese (Simplified) and Japanese were added on March 19, 2020.
In July 2018, a free unofficial browser extension for Google Chrome and Firefox was released.
In September 2019, DeepL released "DeepL", a free desktop translation app for Microsoft Windows and macOS.
The principle is based on an index robot for collecting translations that already exist on the website.
