Customize our translation services to understand industry slang, or domain-specific terms. Maintain the context and meaning in translations of technical documents, product descriptions, and social content.

Key features

Three translation products tailored for your needs

AutoML Translation

Developers, translators, and localization experts with domain knowledge can build custom translation models without writing a single line of code using our AutoML technology. Just upload translated language pairs for your use case, and AutoML Translation will train a custom model to meet your domain-specific translation needs.

Translation API

Translation API Basic uses Google’s neural machine translation technology to instantly translate texts into more than one hundred languages. Translation API Advanced offers the same fast, dynamic results you get with Basic and additional customization features. Customization matters for domain- and context-specific terms or phrases, and formatted document translation.
