How fast translators translate documents depends on the process they adapted. Translators that work with the help of the latest translation technology can deliver translations faster than those who don’t.

Translation technologies, such as NMT (neural machine translation) and TM (translation memory), are here to help the process to be optimised to the fullest, which doesn’t affect the quality of the end product at all.

The speed of the translation also depends on the service you pick. If choosing machine translation with light review, where the translator just runs over the translation and corrects the most obvious mistakes, will be done faster than a translation with additional proofreading and/or revision.

So, to get the fastest translation (no matter the service) you, as a customer, have to be prepared too, and make sure you follow all 10 steps that we prepared in our checklist (you can download it for free, if you scroll up a bit).
