General

How does Transifex AI work?

As a company, Transifex is AI-empowered and human-supported. If you’re going to engage the world, you need both. We created Transifex AI with that in mind. This means we’re combining the power of public LLMs with human-generated context to provide translations in your unique voice.

By leveraging your glossary, translation memory, company profile, and labeled training data, we are able to offer a differentiated experience compared to simply being a front-end to LLMs or MT engines. Not yet a customer? No problem! We can learn your unique voice in a few simple steps.

​​With cutting-edge technologies and practices such as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), Zero Data Retention (ZDR), and per-customer fine-tuning, your data remains your data and is not used to train public models.

Paired with our industry-leading TMS, Transifex AI is able to meet your scale and security needs while seamlessly integrating into your existing workflows.

And we’re just getting started - check back often for updates.

Why should I use Transifex AI?

We believe in AI Empowerment. Transifex AI lifts you over the language barrier by providing human-quality translations in your unique voice. Unlike using public LLMs and MT services, our solution meets your massive scale and security needs while adding your company’s context to the translations.

We tested tens of thousands of use cases, and more than 65% of the translations made it into production without requiring edits! Give it a try - we believe you’ll like what you see!

How is it different from the third-party ML engines?

Transifex AI, our people-powered AI translation engine, engages with you right where you are. We centralize your content and provide automated workflows – the whole package. Our responsive team even tailors solutions to meet your unique needs and the needs of your users worldwide.

Third-party ML engines are just that - third-party. They aren't integrated into your workflows, nor are they aware of your content and unique voice.

Unlike third-party ML engines, Transifex AI caters to your needs for massive scale and security while incorporating your company’s context into the translations. In our private beta, over 50 customers participated, testing tens of thousands of use cases. The results? More than 65% of the translations seamlessly transitioned into production without requiring edits! Give it a try - we believe you’ll like what you see!

How do you see the problem of underrepresented languages as it relates to AI?

At Transifex, we lift you over the language barrier so you can engage the world. And our unrivaled responsiveness will address each of your unique needs. This means we will continue to seek out unique solutions to complex problems such as underrepresented languages.

Transifex AI is able to use your unique content, including that in underrepresented languages, to fine-tune translations. However, the tested use cases have been somewhat limited thus far, so we’d be interested in working with you on refinement. Please contact us if this is of interest.

We’re not there yet, and AI isn’t there yet, but we recognize the inequity and will continue to work with you to break down language barriers - all language barriers.
