For Global Enterprises

Global enterprises need to provide a top-notch customer experience for clients regardless of where they come from, which means you need to speak to them in their language. Machine translation provides a cost-effective means to provide your clients with non-crucial information they can use, even if it isn't perfect.

For LSPs

In an era of falling translation prices and increasing customer demands machine translation is the way to stay ahead of your competitors.  LSPs that already have machine translation enjoy an advantage in the marketplace.

 

 

 

 

 

A Wealth and Depth of MT Research

Cutting through the Hype of MT

 

Rapidly increasing content volumes does not mean that MT is displacing human translators despite mainstream business and technology outlets continuing to incredulously repeat press release-driven claims that machine translation will soon replace human translators.

MT is not displacing human translators. The reality is far more complex.

A more realistic scenario is one where AI-driven technologies combine human and machine capabilities to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of human translators, a paradigm CSA Research has termed “augmented translation.”

At CSA Research, we cut through the hype, discern what matters, avoid drive-by articles summarizing the past, and deliver trusted data, insights, tools, and advice in this rapidly moving technology.

  MT Can Increase Your Global Footprint

 

As organizations grapple with meeting global customer expectations for seamless experiences that are adapted to their language needs when does integrating MT into their business strategy make sense?
Let’s explore some use cases where adopting MT will increase your global footprint.

  • Is your customer experience falling short because you can't deliver content in all the languages you'd like? 
  • Do you find translation, in general, too expensive? 
  • Do you deal with large amounts of content of uncertain value that may need to be translated?
  • Do you deal with user-generated content that customers may wish to see in another language?
