Our take
Widely available tools like Google Translate are not fit for complex, operationally intense processes that require expert translations. The manual methods of yesterday can't scale to the volume of digital information produced today. Lilt works with companies, schools, and government agencies to provide AI-powered enterprise language translation. Its platform combines a translation management system and neural machine translation with human language experts to create a “human-in-the-loop” approach.
While companies like AI Translate offer intelligent machine translations, they still have linguists fine-tune and correct the texts afterwards. With the Lilt platform, AI and humans work together on text, with the AI making real-time sentence suggestions and the linguist reviewing them immediately. This collaboration delivers 3-5x greater efficiency than traditional human-only translation services, which has aided Lilt's substantial rounds of funding.
Clients such as Asics, Canva, and Digital Ocean use Lilt technology for urgent campaigns and large-scale localisation projects. Recently, Lilt launched its V3.5 translation models, which improve quality by 15% to 20%, significantly enhancing translation accuracy and efficiency. Additionally, Lilt appointed a new Chief Revenue Officer to drive growth and scale, underscoring its commitment to expanding its market presence and further improving its services.
