TECHNOLOGY

At Fastnet Translation, we rely on the best-in-class linguistic technology to collaborate more efficiently with translators and clients and enhance the consistency and quality output of our translations.

As each client’s IT infrastructure is unique, we have opted for technological and tool agnosticism to best match and integrate with our clients’ IT environment. This means that our project managers and linguists are technology-savvy and platform eclectic. Our teams shift or get trained to new tools, software, and platforms on a project-basis and at short notice. As CAD (computer-aided design) and CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) are critical components of modern-day professionals in the design and manufacturing sector, mastering the use or one or more computer-aided translation (CAT) tools is now an essential skill for all our linguists. Our translation platforms are not limited to any specific brand, software and server and are compliant with existing industry standards: TMX, TBX and XLIFF. These are specially designed to bundle customized packages of translation tools comprising some or all the following key components:

CAT (computer-aided translation) software

  • More than two dozen widely adopted brands
  • Cloud-based, self-hosted or standalone deployment
  • TMX-compliant translation memories server
