CAT Tools - Computer-Aided Translation Tools

Soventrans.com employs several computer-aided translation (CAT) tools. These tools assist our translators, editors, and proofreaders to quickly turn projects around and ensure the highest quality translation. They partly automate the translation, localization and quality assurance processes and are employed for every client and project, streamlining the overall workflow. The translation memory (TM) tools we use (built by TRADOS, Atril, STAR, and others) achieve higher rates of efficiency by comparing words, sentences, phrases or other segments of language with established translations. TM lowers costs by ensuring that repetitive language is not re-translated. In addition, time-to-market is greatly improved because the text-extraction and translation processes become largely automated. Most importantly, CAT tools enable exceptional consistency across all media and types of communication.

CAT Tools do not provide automatic translation, although they do help to automate the translation process, which saves time, saves money and allows for the highest level of quality and consistency in final deliverables.
