Purpose: AI provider of large language models (LLMs) access through an API.




 AI Generated Translations 

Overview:
After conducting an independent review of multiple machine translation solutions, we’re thrilled to announce our new AI-powered translation offering. 

Testing shows it delivers significant improvements in translation accuracy across a wide variety of contexts, ensuring your content resonates with global audiences more effectively than ever.

What It Does:
When a user requests your site to be translated, for example, from English to French, the following process is applied:

  1. Check Cache – If the requested translation already exists, it is returned immediately.
  2. AI Translation – If supported, the request is translated using our AI powered system.
  3. Fallback Providers – If AI isn’t supported for a specific language, the request is route to the highest priority provider in our list.
  4. Automatic Failover – In the rare event a provider fails, the system automatically falls back to the next available provider, ensuring seamless service.

Quality Assurance:  

We have partnered with independent human translation companies to benchmark all providers, including our AI solution. Key findings include:

  • In most cases, AI-powered translations outperformed Google, AWS and Microsoft Translate, Google being our most frequently used provider.

  • AI translations have been disabled for languages where quality did not meet our strict standards, such as low benchmark scores, inconsistent responses, or malformed outputs.

We have also built an automated quality assurance check into our translation module itself. 

Using this, we can automatically assess the quality of each of our translations, re-translating any content that does not meet our strict benchmark.  

This works by ranking the quality of each of our translations out of 100, the ones that do not exceed 75 are marked for re-translation.  This process continues until we have a verified, accurate translation.

Sub-Processor:

  • Cerebras – AI inference provider for powering translations.

  • Hugging Face - AI chat/inference proxy provider for AI translations

Opt-out process:

Customers who have chosen to opt out of using AI will continue to use non-AI providers.

 

AI Generated Dictionary 

What it does:

Tailored for clarity, our Ai Generated Dictionary offers accessible definitions with richer context than our traditional dictionary.

Who it supports:

  • Instantly supports users understand content in their native language

Sub-Processor: Open AI

Purpose: AI provider of large language models (LLMs) access through an API. 


AI - Context Driven Results


Overview

We understand that certain keywords can have different meanings depending on the context or industry.

This enhancement lets you specify your sector, providing greater context and relevance in AI generated results across the following AI features:

Dictionary
