AI / Machine Translations

Here at Tectrans we like to stay ahead of the technology curve. It therefore makes sense for us to have embraced the new field of AI / machine translations and for us to offer this service to our customers.

While machine translation systems are not quite at the point where they can do the job as well as a proper professional human translator, they are nearly good enough. They can help make the work of trained professionals more efficient. So long as a real translator is involved to review the text, it can be a good alternative for a great many cases, and at a much lower cost.

While this service is not suitable for all types of text, there are many circumstances where a quicker, more lightweight and affordable translation service can be just what's needed.

Discuss AI / Machine Translations with our team…

Machine / AI translations have come a long way in the past 10 years. While they do not compare to the high-quality output of a trained, experienced professional translator, they can be useful in many situations.

You can rely on our highly trained and experienced professional translators who will be involved in the “post-editing” of the AI output. This way, you get all the benefits and none of the risks.

  • A cost-effective alternative to standard translations (much lower overall costs).
  • A great way to speed up translation work if you’re in a hurry.
  • Suitable for all sorts of text, where you need to know what the text says and be able to communicate this effectively.

This AI / Machine Translation service can be useful for situations where speed and cost-effectiveness are most important; where you simply need to know what the text is saying and be able to communicate it, and can’t justify paying for a premium translation service to meet this goal.

Great cost-savings possible on larger work.

Faster turnarounds than traditional translations.

When pairing machine translations with human post-editing (MTPE) you get all of the quality at a much lower price.

Keep in mind, it does not work with all text. If you require the best quality prose – text written to impress people, to sell your business – then it might be better to stick to full traditional human translation and proofreading.

If this is of any interest, do get in touch and we’ll be happy to discuss it…

I would just like to say that it has been very easy working with you and you have been incredibly efficient and responsive.  We will send out these Portuguese documents to our clients.

I recently presented Tectrans with a difficult challenge to translate a number of technical brochures from English to Italian with a very tight deadline for completion. Our new Italian distributor had a last minute opportunity to present our products at a trade show which was an opportunity I certainly did not want to miss. I presented this challenge to Tectrans who accepted. Throughout the process the communication from Tectrans was excellent, making sure updates were provided on the status and progress was being made. Tectrans delivered both digital and printed versions of the brochures within the challenging time frame, with very positive feedback received from our Italian distributor on the translations provided.

Dear Sir, Sulzer Pumps has used UKTechtrans on several occasions over the past 13 months or so, for translating documents of various size and complexity from English to Russian language. We have found them to be very diligent and their quality of work is to a high professional standard. Delivery on time is a major requirement with our supply chain and UKTechtrans have performed excellently on this key performance indicator.

Thank you for all the recently translated files. I have received all the CDs, and I am now starting to print the manuals. Everything looks great!
A huge thanks to all the team, - another project completed on time and of high quality. I simply have to press 'print'.
