What is NMT?

Neuro-Machine Translation (NMT)

Artifical Intelligence (A.I.) is changing the game for most industries. In localization, A.I. is utilized to support transcription and translation. The turnaround time A.I. takes compared to a human translator is at a 1 : 48 ratio. An example, NMT takes 10 minutes to translate a 1-hour content whereas a human translator takes 8 hours. An English template runs through the NMT and it will produce the desired language’s translation.

Yes, A.I. has its limitations but we aim to improve its performance by providing it constant feedbacks. With this, we hope to expand its learning curve and cover as much content as we can.

Note : This freelance position is for pooling, and job availability and frequency may vary depending on client's needs.
