Trados Enhances Platform With New Accessibility, AI and Management Features

RWS is pleased to announce that Trados, the industry-leading translation platform, now includes machine translation from Language Weaver across all editions. Machine translation plays a vital role in helping our customers achieve the goal to translate everything. Previously only available with Studio and Enterprise, this capability has now been extended to Team and Accelerate editions, with an annual allowance of 60 million characters. 

We also continuously deliver new innovations to our platform. Here are just a few of our latest key innovations:

Translation management functionality for improved quality and flexibility 

Trados helps you to improve quality at each stage in the translation process:

• Before translation: We have enhanced our built-in terminology management by introducing a new status field to prevent the use of forbidden terms.
• During translation: A comprehensive set of automated quality assurance (QA) rules can now be further customized with language-specific QA checks.
• After translation: Translation quality assessment (TQA), used to objectively assess quality, now offers custom models.

Translation collaboration enhancements for streamlined project management to keep projects running smoothly

Trados streamlines translation vendor communication, collaboration and workflow. We have recently introduced greater flexibility to reassign to another vendor at different stages, for example during the project planning or at vendor quote approval. This means if the vendor is no longer able to work on the task, project managers can keep projects moving forward. 

Translation productivity features designed to speed up translation processes

In our continuous efforts to assist localization professionals in translating everything, the latest service release (SR1) of Trados Studio 2022 introduces powerful new capabilities. These include improved desktop editing, resulting in faster display and enhanced visual quality. Additionally, the Manager view now provides full support for Trados GroupShare projects. We have also developed a new app that incorporates the large language model behind ChatGPT.
