Memsource Translate is the machine translation (MT) hub and an add-on with additional features within Memsource. Its AI-powered MT Autoselect feature finds the optimal engine for each translation job based on its domain and language pair. Translating can start with Memsource Translate's fully managed engines or supported engines can be added via API. MT Quality Estimation supporting many language pairs is enabled for all engines by default. Glossaries can also be associated with MT engines that support them.
Multiple instances of Memsource Translate can not be created.
Fully managed engines are presented on the Memsource Translate page or if MT Profiles are enabled, on a profile page. Fully managed engines can be switched on and off from these locations.
MT Autoselect supports domain-based recommendation for all documents in these source languages:
English
Czech
German
Spanish
French
Italian
Japanese
Korean
Dutch
Russian
Swedish
Chinese Simplified
All other language combinations get MT Autoselect recommendations but do not take text domain into account.
