Description:
Amazon Translate is a neural machine translation service by AWS that enables programmatic translation of text or documents across many languages. It’s designed for integration into applications, content workflows, or localization pipelines, emphasizing accuracy, scalability, and customization.
Unique Features:
- Real-time & batch translation — supports synchronous (instant) text and document translation, as well as asynchronous jobs for large batches.
- Custom terminology / Active Custom Translation (ACT) — lets you influence translation output by supplying your own translation examples without needing to train a full custom model.
- Automatic language detection — you can specify “auto” as the source language; the system uses AWS Comprehend for detection.
- Document & Office file translation — supports translating DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, and plain text files while preserving layout and formatting.
- Translation settings control — options to set brevity (shorter output), formality level, and profanity masking in translations.
- Scalable, pay-as-you-go model — you pay per character translated, with no minimum commitment.
- Free tier for new users — it includes a monthly free allowance for character translation for the first 12 months.
