Post-editing
Machine translation
Recent years have seen a rapid increase in the practical application of machine translation, particularly neural machine translation (NMT). Despite significant improvement, the quality of machine-translated texts still does not allow for their publication without additional verification. To give them a form comparable to that of texts translated by humans, machine-translated documents need to be verified by a professional editor, that is, they need to be post-edited.
What does post-editing involve?
We have a seasoned team of post-editors, recruited from among properly trained translators, who perform this task with a proper understanding of its specific requirements. For the purpose of large projects, we can immediately build a team composed of a dedicated project manager and five, ten or fifteen post-editors and proofreaders. The texts can be post-edited using almost any CAT tool.
Advantages of machine translation
We offer machine translation and post-editing to clients who are pressed for time and want to optimize large-scale project costs.
Full Post-Editing is a process which combines: Machine Translation, post-editing, and revision.
Compared to the traditional translation and editing performed by qualified professionals, this process can reduce the costs by 20-30%, provided the machine translation is reasonably competent.
On the other hand, with some compromises to the general quality, we also offer:
Light Post‑Editing which combines Machine Translation and post-editing
and allows even further savings, up to 60%.
