Tilde Machine Translation is an AI service for translating text, PDFs, documents, and images with TildeOpen LLM. It supports 34 languages, preserves layout and formatting in document and image translations, and lets users create glossaries for consistent terminology. LLM features can rephrase text for tone, summarise key points, and extract insights. The service is available on the web and through an API connecting websites, apps, CAT tools, and workflows; the API supports glossary rules and translation memory. Tilde lists plugins for Trados Studio and Phrase TMS, and also names MemoQ. More than 30 file types are supported, with a 25 MB maximum file size for the API.
