Services about us Blog Current academy Career Service & contact TECHNOLOGIES Home page Services global translation Technologies Translation and technology: man and machine At itl, language and technology go hand in hand in translation management. When the technology runs away in a fully automated, AI-filled process, speech fragments stumble through the translation without context and in the end the user somewhere in the world only understands the train station. But the best translation is of no use if it cannot be accessed in good time and the effort and benefits of its creation are not in harmony. In combination, the technological possibilities that digitization also offers in the area of language management offer a huge opportunity to meet the requirements of a global market.

More Connectors The busy assistants for routine jobs Every day-to-day work consists of two job categories. First, there is the creative work in which our ideas are asked, our listening and our attention to the concerns of colleagues and customers. And then there are the annoying routine jobs: unpacking mail attachments, sorting hundreds of xml files and creating translation projects in 30 languages by hand. Neither you nor we have little monkeys. But smart connectors instead, i.e. software that automates what is not in the trees with three. And so we can tinker, think and create in peace.

More Further optimize the translation process with connectors Blog article by Bastian Heilemann More Machine Translation & Post Editing Machine translation and post-editing: not always, but more and more often The question is no longer whether, but when machine translation should also be used in the localization of industrial content. Not every text should be machine translated. But every company has content that is suitable for this. Which MT engine is used depends on the quality that is expected and how much the time for postprocessing is to be reduced. In order to make the right choice between a generic or a trainable machine translation engine, a pilot project is ideal. This makes it possible to find out in a practical manner whether and to what extent the specialist translator is relieved of post-editing work. We support you in selecting the most suitable machine translation engines for your purposes. With the help of pilot projects and based on our MT-FAKTOR® calculation, we can make reliable statements about the profitability of systems. Our services Personal advice from a team of localization engineers and localization experts Establishment of pilot projects to evaluate suitable machine translation engines Qualitative assessment of profitability based on the itl-MT-FAKTOR® calculation Your advantages Selection of the appropriate machine translation engine on the basis of pilot phases Saving of time and costs in post-processing through the use of machine translation Easy and inexpensive entry into machine translation Individual processes possible depending on the project requirements Existing content in translation memory databases will continue to be used and expanded with verified MT results The itl newsletter Subscribe to our newsletter and stay up to date with all things technical documentation, translation, software and training.
