Machine translation with post-editing – withstand the content tsunami 

You are all familiar with online translation programs such as Google Translate. Online translation tools are often unreliable and unsafe, but they are free of charge. 

You also know that a professional translator provides unbeatable translation quality and confidentiality. Human translation is more expensive. It also has limited capacity.

With average savings of 35 % in timing and budget while keeping a well-defined quality level, this approach is certainly worth considering!
