What is Paraphrase?

Paraphrase is a secure web-Based translation management system that enables users to produce fast, confidential, and high-quality translations for their company or organization at minimal cost. While it does not replace human translation, Paraphrase employs machine translation technology to provide a base translation, which can then be edited by the user with their own translation skills or in collaboration with a bilingual colleague. Paraphrase is designed to put professional translation technology into the hands of busy executives and individuals, saving time and money for organizations. Its user-friendly interface hides complexities to ensure focus on the necessary tasks while providing an unparalleled translation experience through the Paraphrase API.

How Paraphrase Works

Paraphrase utilizes machine translation technology to generate a basic translation for the user by capturing the gist of the text. This translation is color-coded to indicate its quality, with red representing the lowest quality machine translation. However, Paraphrase goes beyond automated translation by offering the option to edit and improve translations using human skills or collaboration with colleagues. By saving these edited translations in the user's translation memories, Paraphrase learns and improves over time, reducing the time spent on future translations. Paraphrase also supports a wide range of file types for translation, including PDF, PowerPoint, Excel, Word, InDesign, HTML, and XML.

Features of Paraphrase

Paraphrase provides several features that enhance the translation experience and streamline the process for users. Encryption ensures the security of translations, while preserving the formatting of translated files. The system learns the user's frequently used words and phrases, further speeding up future translations. These features significantly save time and money on translation projects. The Paraphrase API adds value to applications by offering an unmatched translation experience, including encrypted translations, translated file formatting preservation, and a learning system for user-specific language Patterns.

Translation Process with Paraphrase

The translation process with Paraphrase begins by uploading the source file and selecting the source language and the target language. Once uploaded, the user can initiate the translation process for compatible file types such as PDF and PowerPoint. The translated file opens in the translation editor, where the user can edit translations segment by segment. The edited translations can be saved in the user's translation memories for future reference and improvement. Collaboration is made easy within Paraphrase by inviting colleagues to work on translations through the sharing feature. It is important to note that translations should be shared and edited within the Paraphrase system to ensure the retention of edits and improve the learning capabilities of the system.

Audio Support and Voiceover

Paraphrase also offers audio support through text-to-speech translations in 18 different languages. This feature allows users to translate video scripts, edit them, and obtain voiceovers in mp4 and WAV formats for videos. Users can customize the voiceover's gender and format based on their preferences and requirements. This feature adds another dimension to the translation process, providing comprehensive support for multimedia content localization.

Security and Privacy

At Paraphrase, security and privacy are given utmost importance. Translations are encrypted to ensure the confidentiality of data, and no indexing or sharing of user data occurs. Paraphrase offers additional security measures such as two-factor authentication and a private cloud environment, further safeguarding the users' information and translation projects.

Paraphrase as a Productivity Tool

Paraphrase is a powerful productivity tool that complements human translation efforts. By handling the bulk of the translation process, Paraphrase cuts down production time by 50%, allowing users to focus on the human element of carefully translating the intent and tone of the content. This time-saving aspect enables busy executives and translation teams to produce high-quality translations efficiently, ultimately saving time and money for their organizations.
