About
ModernMT is the world's leading enterprise AI translation platform, built on a unique Human-in-the-Loop model that mirrors the human brain's ability to learn and adapt from experience. Unlike generic systems such as Google Translate or DeepL, ModernMT understands the full context of a document — not just isolated sentences — and continuously improves by learning from human corrections in real time. Its dynamic adaptation engine adjusts to your terminology and style without requiring costly training cycles or engine maintenance, making high-quality, customized translation accessible and affordable at scale. Low-confidence translations are flagged and revised in the background, fueling a virtuous cycle of machine-human collaboration. ModernMT supports 200 languages and is designed for high-speed, low-latency enterprise workloads. A simple yet powerful API makes it easy to integrate into existing workflows, CAT tools, and localization pipelines. Security is enterprise-grade: data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and client translations are never used to train the baseline engine or other customers' engines. The platform holds ISO 27001:2013 certification. ModernMT is suited for large multinational corporations, professional translators looking to boost productivity within their CAT tools, and localization teams seeking to strike the ideal balance between AI efficiency and human quality assurance. Named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape for Machine Translation 2023.
Key Features
- Real-Time Dynamic Adaptation: The engine adapts instantly to your document's context, terminology, and style without requiring manual retraining or engine customization.
- Human-in-the-Loop Learning: Low-confidence translations are continuously revised using human feedback, creating a self-improving loop that enhances quality over time.
- Document-Level Translation: ModernMT considers the full context of an entire document—not just individual sentences—for more coherent and accurate translations.
- 200-Language Support with Enterprise API: A fast, low-latency API supports 200 languages and integrates seamlessly into enterprise workflows and CAT tools.
- ISO 27001-Certified Security: Client data is encrypted and never used to train the baseline model or other clients' engines, ensuring complete data privacy and compliance.
Use Cases
- Large multinational corporations localizing content across 200+ languages at scale without custom MT training overhead.
- Professional translators integrating ModernMT into CAT tools to increase throughput while improving machine output through corrections.
