Benefits

Massive: To translate in large quantities! With the translation memory (TM) at its core, an environment is established, which integrates computer-assisted translation (CAT) tools, machine translation (MT) technology and translation management system (TMS) to ensure the project management and translation quality to the industrial standards.

Fast: I want it very urgently! The “MT + PE” mode is perfect for projects with a very short timeframe that is impossible for human translation (HT).

Good: Is the MT trustworthy? The “MT + PE” mode satisfies a diversity of translation purposes and customers’ needs by giving full rein to the fast MT (efficiency) while guaranteeing the accuracy through HT (quality).

Affordable: Have a limited budget? The “MT + PE” mode is more affordable than the traditional HT.
